I need the gravity-fed sock filters for filtering used motor oil. Not sure if my terminology is right, looking for ones that look like inverted dunce caps (perfect for me). Need 50 micron, 10 micron, and 2 micron, or similar gradients. Anyone know of a good online source for cheap filters of...

Chris, the trunnion and sheaves may have to be fabricated, not a small task. However, there was a gent here recently who made his own towbar out of laser-cut sheet steel pieces welded together. Perhaps he might be of service by fabbing up some of them. Won't be cheap, I gather, but it beats...

The M60 is big, bigger than an Abrams (the Abrams weighs more due to the depleted uranium skirt, but is actually lower to the ground). The Scorpion does ride on road tires, that require inflation, like any car tire would. Gives the track a really smooth ride, and helps absorb the shock of the...

WOW! Those are some great pics of a great rig! You put a lot of work into that truck and trailer. I love the first picture, very deep blue sky makes for a striking photo of your M109...

My deuce is going to get a workout around that time. Weekend before is Gilbert PA rally. Two weeks after is the Rausch Creek PA rally. But I might be able to fit this in last weekend of September. :)

The VRC-12 series of radios that nattieleather mentioned above is standard, but there were dozens of radio configurations used in M880 series trucks. The oldest setup I've ever heard of being installed was a PRC-47 set, the newest was a GRC-206 (which is rather complex and includes the RT-524...

No no - orange is Pete's Hot Sauce. Perfect for MRE hot dogs!

Wow! From a beater in November to a parade truck in July! That's one great looking turnaround, Craig!

Ha! In some spots, it could use a coat or two of METAL.

RE: Suck it in! AAAHHHH!!! MY EYES!!!!

Great save! Always good to see an abandoned truck finally given a good caring home....

Very cool. Like I've said to restorers before at shows, the restoration is great, but its the ACCESSORIES that make the final product. I can't tell you the number of Willys MBs and M37s I have seen at a show that are well restored, and have no accessories or pieces of kit, and they bore me, to...

That would be 24087, Olive Drab Semi Gloss.

One of the deuces recently started exhibiting a problem I'm not sure what the issue is. Plenty of lube in the tranny. Couple times, though, the deuce got into 3rd gear, and wouldn't get out of gear, no matter how hard I'm trying to yank the shifter out of the gear position. I "solved" it by...

Okay, time to start a discussion on maintenance issues on the deuce. Here's the thing: I've heard some folks who talk about maintenance all the time, doing the Lubrication Order to the letter, etc., basically calling the deuce a maintenance intensive truck. They work on their trucks all the...

Looks WWII to me, but can't identify what it might go on. The black finish tells me it's probably something Navy, and not Army, else it would be green rather than black.

Very nice job! Looks like JYWC has some competition for the best looking 5-ton/deuce hybrid!

I used to conduct a regular business doing surplus material resale, so I'm in for WAY over $10K over the past several years. Not to the $100K mark, though.
