I was going to say the same thing. There are plenty of 6.5's out there. Nothing wrong with a good running 6.2, but I'd take a 6.5 over one. Contact TNJ Murrray in DE. John has some available.

I've had all kinds of stuff left behind: *Manuals, sometimes in pamphlet bags. *Turn in documents. *Directions to the turn in location. *BII (although never a complete set of BII)...tools, tool wraps, fire extinguishers, jacks, snatch blocks, chains, wheel chocks, etc. *Six plastic barrels of...

Jeff, I don't know sources for parts other than this list, the Internet, or eBay. While I am unsure if they have the parts, you could try Eastern Surplus in Philly or Memphis Equipment in TN.

Jeff, it was nice meeting you this past weekend. Yes, I believe those cargo tie downs are supposed to rotate, although it has been a while since I had one in my yard. PM CUCVFAN to ask him as he has my old M105A3. I have seen the rubber rope for sale. I think you may be able to retrofit the...

I'd strongly recommend changing the fuel filters before you set out, and also bring along some extras. Oil can wait until you get back as long as it is topped off and not too dirty (still better to change it), but a clogged fuel filter will bring you to a complete stop. Does the truck have the...

I don't have any response that is relevant or helpful, but I wanted to say that I like your screen name! My next (or the one after) German Shepherd will be named Poolboy (the next will be Holly)! My wife is hesitant to get another dog (we've always had German Shepherds) because of the feeling...

Entered.

I'd suggest installing the high-back seats with the 3-point seat belt kit. I have never used a car seat in a HMMWV before, but I assume it would work just fine with the 3-point seat belts.

I'd recommend you post the pics from the auction. The pics will show more information than a screen shot of the auction. Congratulations on the new acquisition.

A lot of shops say they are not responsible for thefts that occur on the premises. I don't believe that is accurate. Talk to a lawyer.

Ken, great job. Great score.

Jeff, get well soon!

Carefully sand down the layers of paint on the bumper. Take the proper safety precautions for CARC paint. You may be able to trace the truck back multiple units.

John Winslow (RIP) had one for sale once that was really clean. His truck was complete and fully operational. He had it for quite a long time as I guess it was not a hot seller. He offered it to me and I considered it for a while, but I did not end up buying it. It was probably 15 or more...

For what it's worth, the "directions" that come with the hot water heater kits leave a lot to be desired in my opinion. They basically amount to a schematic. The instructions I had...and I have installed several heaters...basically just showed the layout, but the instructions did not tell you...

I have had many of the M44A2 series and M44A3 series trucks. In my mind, without a doubt, the M35A3 is the superior ride with regards to safety, performance, and comfort. I particularly like: dual circuit brake system, the back up lights, seat belts, better/more comfortable seats, upgraded...

An MWO is a Military Work Order. It usually entails things that the military decides to change on a truck. A real example is with the M44 series of trucks. When they were first designed, they did not have seat belts. Some years later (decades after they first entered service), the military...

Speaking of tire guys, a good friend in PA (on this list, but I'll let him announce himself if he wants to) had a tire guy who was in his late 60s. He would drive down from PA to MD and work on my tires. I only called him if I had a large job, like swapping six wheels/tires from one truck to...

Contact Wes Simpson (SIMP5782) on this list. He's the man for tires.

This may help to explain why I've had many, many trucks with non-standard paint. I once had a "3 color camo" M35A2 from the DE AR NG that was more like a five or six color camo with all the different greens and browns used. I never thought they might have had to buy their own paint. As an...
