    Dukw progress thread

    There is a way to test them before taking them out in the water: http://www.bsrecreationalfarm.com/photo.html Leak checking by duck taping (get it?) a blue tarp over the hull, pressurizing with the discharge from a shop vac, then spraying soapy water on the external surfaces. Guaranteed to...

    A gift of a life time.

    It is a beautiful truck. Dawn and I spent a lot of time looking at it. Really nice. We have a friend who has one and he wanted a bunch of pics so I shot a ton for him. Here's what I got (I hope I am not overstepping my bounds here-if you want me to remove them, I will happily). Congrats, it...

    Possibly No More Trucks from DLA

    There is a backstory to this: The EPA had been giving the Army (well, the military in general) exemptions for the multifuel for years and finally they said "no more exemptions, you have X years to replace it, so you better buy as many now as you think you'll need". This is why about 90% of the...

    Possibly No More Trucks from DLA

    At this point, the following needs to happen: A. It appears that some sort of understanding exists or existed between TACOM & EPA that is at the heart of the matter. We need a to wait a few days and see what the "final" decision is. You can be assured that people like TNJ and Memphis and...

    800 miles in my m923 a2 flat towing my dodge

    Must have been a difficult trip like that. I find that all the blood rushes to my head when I stay inverted for long periods. Nice dually.

    Front rear left axle dripping some sludge

    I don't, I am a deuce guy (but I don't even have those memorized). The parts manual (-P) will have them, or you can find them on all the big guy's websites: http://eriksmilitarysurplus.com/bearingsseals.html http://www.tnjmurray.com/militaryvehicles/index.cfm?shop/products/catid/63/page/1

    Front rear left axle dripping some sludge

    In short, either the inner, outer or keyway seal is bad. You will need to remove the wheel and drum/hub assy. and inspect. It isn't hard, but everything you're dealing with is crazy heavy. If you've never serviced the hubs since getting the truck, you should do all 6. Being on the side of...

    Clinto No Longer Broke Down,Thanks for the Help

    Sorry, we made it home last night really late. I just plain forgot to update this. Drove it home 500+ miles on 3 wheels. Today I have a billion things to do, I have to unload the uHaul and drop it off, get to work on a Land Rover for a customer, replace the blown up axle on the trailer, return...

    2014 MVPA National Convention- Louisville, KY

    I wish I could express how good a show this was. It was very large, well organized, good swap meet, tons of friends and great, great displays. How about the doggie MASH unit setup, with service dogs (:)) on stretchers? How about the WWII Weasel on a Iwo Jima display, along with underwater...

    Clinto No Longer Broke Down,Thanks for the Help

    OK, we have made it back to our room in Louisville with the 3wheel trailer and our newest addition to the family, ginormous Uhaul van. Trailer bearings did fine on the way back, plenty cool. We just took a shower and are going to have some spaghetti and crash. We'll get up early tomorrow to...
