Moments like that, combined with the problem solving process leading up to them, could possibly have been more highlighted in the video for my taste (but maybe it would be boring to most)(it reminded me of the time I moved my HMMVW about 6 feet sideways in the snow - over 3 full days - using come-alongs and hydraulic jacks mounted to custom sleds haha)(air in fuel lines, didn’t know the fix, but had to move it somehow lol) PS.

    Long ago when I was driving an M35A2 with attached communication trailer, we were instructed to NEVER back up using the military pendlehook system, that it was not engineered to deal with that (we also did not have any sort of cap over the hook part) so we always determined clearances so we could drive forward and make u-turns. Looks like you did a good job of modifying the rear end to accommodate the necessary turn radius and airhose placement. I applaud!

    Those fasteners you were trying to remove look like the same type that are used on aircraft structures called "Hi Lok" fasteners. They're designed to be torqued once and not come loose, which is why you couldn't get them off easily. Great job on moving that frame assembly back to where you needed it. Good to know information.

    I'd recommend you to buy some big chains for all four tires on that truck. It will help getting through those muddy forest paths a lot easier. You can even get studded chains for even better traction in some circumstances. While I was in the Finnish military we experimented with going through different kinds of muddy forest trails with and without chains and I can say the chains make it a night and day difference

    Andrew I was amazed that such inadequate ring hitch and other attachment placement was unmistakably problematic but had been left that way! Your solution was so logical, inexpensive, effective and relatively easy to apply that I find it incredible an organization as vast, well funded and resourceful as US Military Transport Command was content to adapt to and work with such a defect instead of simply modifying any affected vehicles the same way!

    That big honkin rouond hitch has been since forever. Andrew mentioned skinny. I think that is the solution. Just a few inches of extension pushes that A frame a little further away. Radius and all that. REO. Dang. I know where there is several acres of valuable historic vehicles in AZ. When the old guy dies it's all going up for auction. 'course maybe nobody cares anymore about old time trucks. Anyway, what a great story to watch. Of course, when you get fired up about a renovation it's time to stop, review and then start making plans that includes notes about what you did so you can put it back together again. That's how you do it. No truer words. This is so much fun to watch that I need to shut up and just watch.

    There is coolant passages in the head surrounding the injector and valve seats. The cup is a brass or bronze cup the injector sits into it and seals it from oil and coolant getting into the cylinder. Eventually the higher pressure of the fuel will sand blast the cup to leak lots of fuel into the coolant. And if let go, can wear a groove in the head permanently ruining it or once it’s gets wore enough coolant will enter the cylinder and can hydro lock the engine, bend a rod, etc.

    This video started innocently, but slowly escalated into a mud-filled horror show. The 1977 movie "Sorcerer" comes to mind.

    I know this is a old video but I am currently active duty army. I know on some LMTV's the pintle hitch can actually slide out. But yeah most types of military trailers have have a straight neck rather then the V neck on that trailer which helps with the turn radius. the military needs to take notes from this guy. not only does it look better its so much more functional
