Man that doesn’t look like fun. Just one pic?! I feel your pain. Took me a week to get my Kubota tractor unstuck.

Anyone have a picture of the roof cross section? Basically a pic of the roof if it were cut in two. Curious just how much/little room there is to work with.

Whichever fluid it is, it should be replaced ASAP Some oils/fluids take more heat before breakdown than others, but they all have a limit.

The boot simply isn’t made anymore. By Anyone. At least that I’m aware of. I even called Spicer and they have zero intentions of making any. I haven’t even installed mine yet. Will do it when front driveshaft needs new ujoints.

You probably wouldn’t find one anyway. Spicer does not make one that fits. Long discontinued from GM. It was pure luck cucvrus had one left.

I bought the last one you had. Still sealed in factory GM packaging.

Use it or lose it. Sounds like a classic case of too little/too light of use. Like already mentioned, I would run it at high load for hours before even thinking about a rebuild. Seafoam in the fuel will help. Sure these machines can sit idle for extended periods, but they don’t like to...

They win the Lowest Pass Award.

That simply looks like fun!

Welcome to Steel Soldiers. Looks like a good score. More pictures are always welcome. Any specific plans for it or just general use? The Trailer TMs are available for free in the TM section. Recommend checking the bearings, brakes, etc ASAP. Appearances can be deceiving. Plenty of...

Now you know why guys check the bearings, etc when they first get them. Bad bearings, loose nuts, missing parts and no grease.

Will the iconic CUCV brush guard be installed?

You’re probably already bought something by now but here’s my opinion. I have the Graco 360 VSP Used it to paint a S-280 shelter over 2 years ago. Sherman-Williams Exterior Latex. Practice on something first as you get used to the settings and handling. Technique is everything. Once you...

Welcome to SS. A location is required in your profile.

A lot of the items available commercially are also used by the Military. Just painted a different color(s). The M1101 itself has brake parts, etc that are available over the counter at any trailer store.

Electrical tape will get gummy/hard over time in the sun. Use wire loom for the cable itself and just tuck the connector under the assembly as shown earlier. Both will keep sun off. The heat is a different story. It is what it is. Buy a new one while their still available. When current...

Easy. Someone who refueled and didn’t care.

I picked both of mine up with a dual axle car trailer. Worry free about the trip back. That location might have a forklift and you might not even have to lower the gate. Call the site manager and ask. You definitely have the appropriate trailer for recovery.

Will not work on the rear of a M1008. It's designed for the HMMWV. It might work on the front bumper with a backing place. Would have to see one installed first.

You can always tuck your connector under the surge brake assembly. Keeps sun and water off it. This is how I store mine now.
