Here in Virginia and Just picked this bad boy up and wanted to say hi. This is my first military vehicle and have to say, I love it. Ordered a few things for it already (keyed gas cap and door handles). Going over the truck the last few days and it was well taken care of. Last owner just serviced it, replacing all the filters and fluids. Looking it over and no leaks found as of yet. I think it’s a pretty solid truck. Not sure if I got it for a great price, but I’m happy. Bought it for a farm vehicle so not a daily driver lol.

Welcome to the Outfit!
It does look like a nice truck too. Like
@Steelreaper80 suggested, packing bearings is a heck of a good idea. You are gonna huff and puff and grunt when you pull those tires off, then hubs to get to the bearings - but the time spent will save you money down the road! There are TM's (Technical Manuals) that will explain how to do what needs to be done. Free Downloads here on the site in the 939 Series "Current Conflict" listing.
There is a thing called a Lube Order that is also a TM and it explains what oil and grease to use and how often. Spending time reading up on that will save you money later too. A favorite saying around here is that
Grease is Cheap, Parts are Not! True saying... Nobody enjoys reading old dry books (and TM's are DRY reading!) but they will save your bacon down the road...
Being a farm truck, I imagine you already work on your own stuff. And having a wrench or two in your hand won't feel strange either... Jump on in and start your own thread with more pictures. The more you have, the more we can look - and
if anything looks really good - or if something seems odd, the guys will step in and offer ideas and suggestions.
AGAIN, welcome to the group!
