    Hello from AZ!

    Welcome, I just moved from ELP area. AZ is a big state so not sure where you're at but 98G is in the Tucson area and is a great member to know, especially if you are looking at buying a truck or parts.

    DOD changes ID requirement for base access (Enforcing RealID)

    Based on whatvi saw today, its not a good day to be a contracted employee on a govt base today. They probably spent more than a few hours getting in the gate if they didn't have the right creds.

    Towing a M1061A1

    This question actually comes up probably about once every six months or so. If it was 20 or 30 miles on flat dry loads at low speed....I'd risk it and drive like a nun. Anything other than that, you already have the answer.

    What unit is my truck from?

    Most likely was the truck supporting the S-4(logistics officer) at the battalion HQ.

    Basic Maintenance Items

    The sticky on the CUCV has the normal cross referenced items...belts, filters, etc. If we were to cross reference every part, we'd end up with something like this: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/upload/CUCV/TM9-2320-289-20P.pdf There is also a point that one of our former moderators...

    High Miles

    NO, NO!!!!! Don't buy one with over 100 (one hundred miles) on it. That's too many miles. It's actually more important about what unit the vehicle belonged to and what their command maintenance policy and supervision was. I had one unit that...as recently discussed... that was the worst...

    Basic Maintenance Items

    A lot of the answers to these many questions are answered in the Technical Manual section of this website. For lubricants you would want to consult the LO (Lubrication Order). Normal grease is GAA (Grease Automotive Artillery). Additional websearch can probably find you some or something...

    Topless at 24 degrees....

    Now THAT would have been quite a nipplely thread (and so to say to 98G, a much more interesting thread even through this thread was good to know that he made it back safe).

    Topless at 24 degrees....

    Glad it was successful, albeit cold. Too bad it wasn't for 2 trucks at once. Good thing you had your boots. I have your sandals and blankie.

    M35A2 Overdrive

    I would caution making your deuce go 70 or 80. It then becomes not how fast I can go but how fast I can stop. Last thing this hobby needs is a soccer mom and her van full of kids crushed by a modified deuce.

    "Low Air" What does it mean?

    Low air? Isn't that the opposite of high air? You pay less for low air and pay higher for high air unless you are in Colorado.

    WWII Fire Truck that might need saved

    I was travelling in between Tularosa and Alamogordo, NM yesterday. On the west side of US Rt 54 near Eagle Ranch Farm there was a old car parts yard that had a sign out front that said it needed everything gone (or something like that). Couldn't get a picture and couldn't turn around to go...

    Split rim bolts, O ring, nuts

    My understanding is the M939 and M35A3 (THREE) series is are the same. Eriks has them but $19 bucks for a bolt! Anyone know of a commercial place less expensive? Is there a NAPA number or something similar? I actually need this for an A3 rim that has a leaking O ring and several lof the...
