I didn't get a picture of my rig, but in 2004, I drove the deuce to Aberdeen with a window unit mounted in the front rack of the cargo bed and run it from a generator I had in the M105 trailer. I just stuck it up to the rear window in the canvas cab cover. If I had used a bigger unit it would...

I put a new fuel pump on my M886 yesterday. Runs great now. I also had cracked hoses at the fuel tank and one spot on the passengers side behind the cab where the line crossed the truck and turned forward. These cracks let it suck air and not pump. The pump worked a few weeks after I fixed the...

You shoud come up some weekend and check out the 5 ton. It's the coolest truck a regular guy can own (for under $6000). Here's a link to the add: Marine M813, super singles, lockers, fording kit. - Steel Soldiers::Military Vehicles Supersite I even took my little girl to school in it this week.

I don't know about Charleston, but there are a bunch of us in Columbia that have trucks. But you don't what no stincking deuce, when you can buy my 5 ton :twisted: If you come up our way anytime soon, I'm in Blythewood just north of Columbia, you can smoke some over. You might even consider a...

I know I'm going to regret this thread, but I just drove the M813 for a hour or so and I will never own another deuce. This big cummins powered monster is much more of a truck. It is quieter, more powerful, easier to steer and just plain manlier (did I spell that right?). I know you all lover...

I am also looking for a rear wiring harness for my M813. Anybody know how has them?

The dodge is 12 volt and starting the unit is my biggest concern. I don't know what the unit pulls on start up and I guess I could use my amprobe and try to measure it, but I wouldn't expect that to be accurate. I think the amprobe would not have time to measure the peak amps. I hate to buy an...

OK, here's the idea. I want to use a 120 volt air conditioner (window unit maybe) in my M886 box. I may even put a unit on top. I was thinking of keeping a 120 volt generator on the vehicle but then I thought, could I use a 1500 watt or bigger inverter and install a larger alternator on the...

And then I soiled myself Well, one of the tires got slack, and since I'm slack I didn't do anything about it for a few days and, you guessed it, it broke down from the rim:cry:. It was sitting down about 6" because the back is so light and I was able to get it to pop up with the "cheata" tank...

Sorry about the delay. For a slow economy, I'm real busy (not complaining). The square measures 39" by 39". I didn't measure the back one. With the glass and so forth, the back one should be easy to do with some pictures. I will try to take some pictures with a tape measure in place to set...

I found the outline of the original on my truck and matched that. I had to guess on the red cross, but the white box is right. If you want me to get you some measurements, let me know. Joe

My cousin has an empty goose neck trailer going to Florida this week and can haul some stuff down. I'll get him to post details later, I just wanted to give you all a heads up if you need something hauled down. Joe

It seems half of what we do here is brag about our favorite trucks. Well here I go. I have owned several deuces and a few 5 tons, but with out a dout my M886 is now my favorite ride. I have posted pictures of it on the following thread...

Me and Logan (5 year old daughter) will be there. She is looking forward to it. Please no big explosions this year. I never found out what that boom was Friday night, but Logan keeps reminding me it scared her and she almost "peed" her pants. As a side note, and this is a long shot, if there...

I am not sure I understand exactly what you are looking for but I will tell you what I have. 30 KW is huge. I have a 8 KW generator on my welder and I have my house wired to run off the generator. I plug my generator into the house, flip the main breaker in the pannel box, then flip the...

If you're not familiar with the military light switch, you may have to put it into the driving lights position before the truck lights will work. I didn't have any lights except the head lights until I put the military switch back in and switch it to driving lights. Anyway you should try that...

For what it's worth, I moved my 88 wrangler in the back of my deuce years ago. I had to remove the front rack so the bumper could go over the bed a little to get the tail gate shut. I shut the gate, and drove home. No tie downs at all. I did not get to visit with any law enforcement...

I have what you need and I plan on going to Aberdeen. Let me see if I can find time to cut them out.

I have one I need info on. Here we go. Fed. stock no. 23200508978 ORD SERICE NO. 8736862 IDENTIFICATION NO. 05D 64571 C134 10190 CONT. NO. DAAE06 69 C 0009 Bumper numbers: passengers side: 30 TC 1 - 230 ACS Drivers side: G216

Couldn't you take the VIN to the DMV and try to find the owners identity that way. If you can you can contact the owner direct. If it was ever tagged or titled that should work. Just a thought.
