    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    I am looking for the pins for the west coat mirror setup , I picked up some shoulder bolts from McMaster-Carr , should work ok , slightly oversize , which is good for a worn hinge.

    Broken axle on my firewood trailer..

    That wheel kinda looks like a WWII budd wheel , but the 20" rim size is odd . It is OLD military , but I agree hard to put a type on that , maybe a WWII equipment trailer of some sort .

    Broken axle on my firewood trailer..

    A picture would be great , sounds like you have a 1 1/2 trailer , but the 5 lugs is not right should be 6 .

    Broken axle on my firewood trailer..

    Lefty . need a LITTLE more info from you . There should be data plates on the trailer , which tells you what Model/Series of trailer you have . There are 2 basic styles of light trailers , 3/4 ton & 1 1/2 ton trailers , plus lots of TYPES in those categories . Trailer axles are pretty much the...

    Show us your Military Trailers

    Thanks Carlo , it should have early trailer that used the Budd wheels , this is a later model trailer with late models axle , but like I said , it works for me and more important the price was right , $400 , with the fiberglass racks and bows , but no canvas .

    mag

    When you pulled the MAG out to replace the points , did you re install the MAG correctly and not out of time . There is a whole section in the TM about overhauling the Magneto on a mule. Did it have spark before you started ?

    just bought a M1028a2 dually

    Nice MV , looks like the Fork Lift damage is not to bad , would look good with a new OD paint job . I have not seen many DUALLY 1028's . I would try and get it running first and check all the systems , then make your decision .

    Storage / Parking

    Exhaust stack and soft top come off pretty easy , and the mirrors fold . Plus you can remove the cargo cover and seats . The trucks were designed to fit in a standard shipping container . This site has some GREAT people and LOTS of good INFO on your MV . Also you should try to find a local MV...

    Storage / Parking

    I am fortunate that I live in the country and have acreage , so parking MV's are not a problem , only limited by my WALLET, LOL. Matter of fact a lot of the "MUCK FARMERS " use MV's to get the onions and cabbage out of the fields in the fall .

    Newb from Las Vegas needs help inspecting M35A3 in the same area

    thanks , it's getting there , rides a lot better with the 395's . Look around for a set of 395's and don't forget new o-rings and tire valve grommets when you change tires . BTW , 3 out of the 4 rear wheel CTIS o-rings were leaking gear lube into the bearings , so that would be the number one...
