    Picked up an M1165 - Want to Restore it

    I read this thread and was amazed to find a military truck that wasn't water tight. Who knew. (Yes, that is sarcasm if I was too subtle.) I can't wait to see the finished truck. I won't say I liked painting an MV but it wasn't that bad.

    20kw Generator

    I think you are right. Had I known I would have driven over and got it from you. But alas, I left FB and for valid reasons.

    20kw Generator

    I have read the whole thread and while I am a supporter of military generators what you have asked for is a civilian version and I agree with Coug. There are a couple of 003s here on the property and I have never used them for a power outage. Even though they aren't mine I can use them if I...

    Driver of HMMWV dead after accident...

    I never noticed that it was possible to throw yourself out of HMMWV. I've only driven one at the Georgia Rally. I see people all the time driving their lifted jeeps and they all look like they will out without a High-G maneuver. Seatbelts are a good thing.

    Refreshing my M1061A1

    I love the license plate on the front of the truck. (y)

    M185 Shop Van for amateur radio "Parks on the Air"

    I have seen two former military pieces of hardware at Hamvention in Dayton being used as mobile Ham shacks. The first, at the old Hara Arena location where the operator had put an S-250 on the back of a pickup and the other at the new location where someone had built up an M110X trailer. I...

    M1102 Offgrid Camper Build

    I'm sure there are others but I have only seen one trailer setup personally that looked similar. It is a great use for a former military trailer. Don't you need to use the corner jacks for support? I have a M101A2 that I kept original but added PVC tubes on each side for sectional flag poles...

    GP is selling doors

    There "used to be" a rule against auction links. Not now. Collusion has always been against the rules. (To my knowledge)

    M101a2 Tires with Split Ring / Rim

    That is the first M101A2 I have seen that had that tire/wheel combination. They are locking ring wheels, not split rim. You could call around and ask shops if they do locking ring rims NOT split rims. Say split rim and I'd venture a guess that most will go running and screaming away. You can...

    M105A2 trailer build/ conversion

    Welcome to the site. My Brother is getting ready to put a Deutz Diesel along with a PTO generator on an M353 or M101 or 116. I don't know which. I should know since they are all sitting outside my window.

    35kw GET HDT global generator help request

    Is this a military generator and if so, what model?

    Torque rating

    I'm sure I have mentioned this before but my ex son in law is an engine designer for CAT and works in Peoria. I fired up one of my Deuces and he stood there in awe of how much smoke came out of one.

    My M915

    You and me both.

    My M915

    Pretty sure that was just you, not the truck. Nothing could be wrong with a good running 915A1.

    I can certainly bring a bottle. It might even have some left in it. ;-)

    Haspin 2023

    I had a sore back to begin with over there and bumped my back on Gimpy's UTV getting in and I was going to urinate a brick. Just got back from the doc. I have had a dislocated rib for the last 4 weeks. Doc says it probably hurts a lot. Really? I hadn't noticed. At least what I thought I...

    Haspin 2023

    My wife's best friend was riding with me and when I drove past the group I turned and said, "To quote movie. A man's got to know his limitations". ;-)
