Re: RE: THE GREAT PUMPKIN --- Project Pumpkin Pie Make sure you part out what you don't want off of it - or advertise it on dodgepowerwagon.com. There is a big following for 60s era Power Wagons now, even parts trucks command good money. This orange M37 is pretty darn cool. Please add...

If you can't find a SS member here with a spare off a CUCV wreck, I'm sure most auto glass shops can order a brand new one for you, Colonel.

I believe all wreckers have front winches. I may be wrong, but I can't remember seeing one without a winch. In order of size: XM711, Truck, wrecker, light, 3/4-ton, 4x4 (M37 chassis), very rare M60 Truck, wrecker, light, 2 1/2-ton, 6X6, (M35 chassis), very rare M108 Truck, wrecker-crane...

Here's last years thread about square holes in the 105 trailer. The holes don't look THAT big, that they can't be carriage bolts. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=viewtopic&t=14220&highlight=square+holes+m105

Anyone here taken a junker...I mean a REAL junker, rust holes, parts missing or falling off, complete scrap heap...and did and complete restoration of it? Looking for before and after pics of your junker to jewel conversion....

I think the wench is mounted on him, not the other way around. Is the wench powered by the drive-shaft, or is it hydraulically operated? Or a little of both? Thanks, ladies and gentlemen, I'll be here all week. Be sure and tip your waitresses....

Just had a thought. Square holes are perfect for carriage bolts. Perhaps the holes are there to bolt in a shelter, perhaps?

You always get the coolest toys, you know that, Bruce? [thumbzup]

Does the manual say anything about them? Was their a variant of the M105 trailer designed to carry a certain systems package or something that might have had these holes cut out of them?

RE: Re: RE: One man landing leg kit Looks very interesting! I like the design, looks a lot easier to operate than the standard locking pin design....

IIRC, the M715 series, the M880 series and CUCV series were "interim" fields until a suitable replacement for the M37 and M151 were found, at least that is one opinion I have heard before in print. The HMMWV was supposed to replace most of them, except in a non-tactical role where the CUCV...

RE: Re: RE: m925 a2 series etc WHEN they can be found? $25,000? Man, someone forgot about the several dozen reasonably-priced ones in Maine: http://army4x4.com/900_series.shtml

Wow, early start Cabell! Fantastic, I'll have to sign up! I'm kinda glad they are moving the date of the rally to keep it at the stadium. Yes, grass and dirt is better to set up on IMHO, but it was a familiar site, and it really did allow us the space for thousands to meet and spread out a...

Down side to the lifting bars is that you can't mount them and then drive. Once the rear axles start to articulate, if you hit a pothole or go offroad, the lifting bar will start to move and, being held in place by the eyelet on the side of the bed, the pin holding it to the spring pack will...

I notice most of those are ground off prior to getting surplussed out. Any particular reasons? I rarely see one of GL with the paper clips intact.

Gotta check here. More people into Jeeps to help you out.... http://www.g503.com/

Is there on online link to find out the future routing of where this stuff is going to go? I am concerned about the following sites (which are close to me): Mechanicsburg, PA Chambersburg, PA Ft. Meade, MD Aberdeen, MD Richmond, VA St. Juliens Creek, VA Norfolk, VA

It might haul it home, but I wouldn't tow that heavy trailer with a M1009, it is just not safe. The M1009 can haul a M416 or other 1/4 ton trailers, and some would even argue against towing a M101 3/4-ton trailer with it.
