    Diesel

    If you want power and you had money for that Isuzu motor why not go with a Cummins 5.9 ISB? These have been done before and finding parts will be a lot easier. You can find a wrecked truck with one in it and go from there. Plus with after market support the way of plug and play modules...

    Wheel Cylinder Piston Rod

    I agree that the parts guys, the real parts guys, are hard to come by. We had a very close friend of the family that owned a local autop parts store for years. He knew his stuff and could look up small parts. Now the small town isn't so small and the big stores have moved in. People still...

    straight exhaust

    Just so you know any motor vehicle in Texas is required to have a muffler. A lot of people think diesels are exempt for some reason but that is not the case. From the Texas Transportation Code: § 547.604. MUFFLER REQUIRED. (a) A motor vehicle shall be equipped with a muffler in good working...

    I'm interested if the M151 but I'm 6'4" and I'm not sure that I'll be able to fit in one. How big are you guys that drive these cool looking Jeeps?

    Congrats to new FMTV Civi Owner

    I totally agree with this statement. My girlfriend gets mad at me when I talk about wanting a m1008, M1031, a couple of deuces, a HEMTT, a deuce and a half wrecker, anoher M1009, some 5-tons, one of these LMTVs when they come out, and a military cargo aircraft. I mean what's the big deal...

    Bidders Beware: GL is draining all fluids on trucks

    I guess I'll chime in and state that my M1009 and my MEP-002 both had fluids in them. In fact my M1009 had a serious transmission leak when I picked it up and the DRMO guy at Red Stone tried to start it and slung transmission fluid on the ground. Being in the Army before I just cringed at...
