Well, put some time in on the 1010... Vacuumed interior, box and engine compartment. The Sheriff Dept stored several plastic banners that disintegrated from the heat, so it took forever to vacuum out the debris. Found a 1 quart canteen behind the driver seat! Thought I'd find all kinds of nuts...

Thank you m1010plowboy! I was looking in the wrong place... These are the auction photos (I'll post my recovery photos later) - notice the free "mold and forest barnacles" that came with it... My local sheriff department had it and I also won two MEP 017A gas 5kw gensets.

Hello CUCV Fans, I haven't posted in a long time, but check the Classified every day for "deals"... Always wanted a CUCV ambulance as we had them in my USAR M110 8" Self Propelled Howitzer battalion and were great on those hot / cold days and nights at Ft. McCoy, WI during live fire exercises...

Guy is selling a M59 cooking range in Palmetto, FL and I live in mid TN (762 miles). Wondering if someone would be passing Palmetto and coming to TN, AL or GA? This range is in a larger alum. box and appears to be pallet size (48x48). Would fit in the bed of a pickup. Will pay cash of course...

I was looking for parking brake cables for my M149A2 and the few vendors who had them wanted a "small fortune" for them... Since the cable conduits were still good, I was able to disassemble the cable ends, clean, lube them and re-use them (my handles were "frozen" though - had to rework them...

Amazing, same thing happened to me looking at a M151A2 after opening the battery cover this past summer in TN... I killed several with starting fluid and passed on the Jeep as it needed too many repairs and it's history was "questionable"... (data plate not stamped).

I did notice the pumpkin offset to the driver side and thought "pretty tight fit there for left, upper dogbones"... As usual, you knew the answer Simp! Are M939 series cargo trucks like mine? Again thanks and "relieved" I'm not missing suspension parts...

Hello All, After reading horror stories of self-destructing dogbone bushings, I checked my rear axles. There are no top dogbones on the driver side of my 5 ton. No axle u-bolts, dogbone mount, nothing...??? Right side axles have the upper dogbones and corresponding axle mounts. Both rear axles...

Anyone see this write-up and slideshow under Autos on MSN website? https://www.msn.com/en-us/autos/enthusiasts/with-a-1984-am-general-m-925-modified-you-can-conquer-all/ar-AABbJcD?li=BBnb4R5

I hear ya on the pricing Porky and don't disagree with that statement... I was able to take my cable apart - ream out the plastic tubing and that removed the binding, so that works since I can't source one...

Thanks for finding that Wess - I was looking for a length on a M105 cable while you typed the answer... Darn, guess I won't be using a M105 cable - too short (but it has a grease fitting in the middle - too bad mine weren't made like that...)

Hi All, I purchased a M149A2 Water Buffalo and am having trouble sourcing parking brake cables for it... The NSN is 2530-00-863-5596 and part # is MS53060-6. The cable is 60.125 inch overall length. wbparts states it is also for a M103 trailer (chassis). Eastern Surplus list it, but no...

Got it home... Dam, I attached these photos and they displaced everything I typed before adding these photos (even after I did a "copy" before adding these attachments)... I'll retype later - got to finish a timing belt job on my POV...

Buying my first "big" truck - M925A0... Hello All, Been a while since I have posted... Anyways, buying a 1986 M925A0 (or as CSM Davis told me M925 "basic" or M925A0 - thanks Jeff!) in IN and driving it back to TN while flat towing my 1986 M1009 CUCV behind it - about 440 miles each way...

For locks and keys to fit the Dodge SECM doors, I bought 10 sets of locks and keys - all locks keyed alike - two keys per lock. Eberhard Manufacturing out of Strongsville, OH Their part number: 15621-545 @ $7.03 per lock - for 10 locks was $70.30 + $15.87 ship = $86.17

On mine, my battery is located like yours and in the earlier pictures with the screwdriver is where the battery mounts.

Well, I finally got around to doing the resistor bypass and put in a new relay while I was at it. Truck's been hard starting... So, after the work done - does your CUCV start up better? On my three "hard starting" CUCVs: * 1986 M1031 SECM was a bad fuel return check valve * 1986 M1009 was a...

I've been working on my 1986 M1031 SECM w/ Wisconsin gas and Hobart welder genset combo for last couple of months. Problem I had was on initial startup, engine would shut-off after 5-10 seconds and would not restart without a couple of whiffs of starting fluid (please, no lectures on starting...
