    M101a3 trailer build

    Are the little pillow blocks the side doors pivot on, welded in place? Mine appear to be welded. Your project is really taking shape.

    Quick vin question

    It's a Stude. Check the frame stamping. It's right in the area of the LF fender support.

    Louisiana - State Flagging Existing Titles, and Registering New Vehicles as Off-Road

    It is very likely that they were only concerned with HMMWV in the beginning. The hornets nest will only take so much poking before the swarm emerges.

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    Case spreader. Not many folks have a case spreader in their tool arsenal.

    Got broken into today

    Out of site is a good deterrent. I keep garbage bags in the truck to put stuff in that I can't hide. Sorry man, that really sucks.

    M101a3 trailer build

    I never thought of doing that. It makes perfect sense. Going to have to look at mine. Great idea.

    Sun-N-Fun Air Show Lakeland (FL) Airport 14 April 2018

    That is a great venue for an event.

    Confirmed- Tuff Stuff D-Ring Fits

    Deuce and 5 tons use the diaper pin design. Shackles off the back of a 5 ton will fit a CUCV.

    M1010 Electrical “box” over drivers wheel well?

    You likely can, especially if your kitchen requires 24v. There is a nice wiring diagram in the back of the -20 TM. I would completely familiarize myself with that box before I went tapping into it. Does the rear A/C work?

    M886 wheel question

    I've been running Feed rims on my M1010 for years. They are subtly different and a half inch wider. The GM wheels will fit the M101A2 and M101A3 trailer axles.

    Rolling Coal

    I would have no problem with anyone rolling coal as long as it came out the cab windows. Actually it would be entertaining to watch. If you piped your exhaust into the cab, you could grade your success as you tried all these wonderful ideas. "So preoccupied with wether or not they could and...

    Florida DMV Trip

    Section 6 which I posted above IS your way around the 30 year part. It clearly states it if you go back and read it. Let me forewarn you though. If your local office knows their stuff, they will tell you that you have to apply for that tag via mail through Tallahassee. The MVs are not coded...

    Florida DMV Trip

    Law took effect in FL in 2005.

    Florida DMV Trip

    Did you read all of FSS 320.086? I'm betting that you didn't. Arm yourself with subsection 6 and return to the theatre of battle. I'll quote it here just for the readers edification. (6) For purposes of this section, “former military vehicle” means a vehicle, including a trailer, regardless...

    Performance Radiators

    I'm going to toss this out there. Are these radiators that much better than an all aluminum radiator?

    Pictures from the past

    Wait, you're familiar with mules? Holy cow! Great pics.

    Battery Apology

    I have red tops on both CUCVs. Both sets are 5 yrs old. No issues this far.

    Rear-Front Axle Shift/Slide

    For your information, the gap in the hangar is necessary for articulation.

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    Well, I don't know of many folks who have 800HP CUCVs. Only a few with 200HP CUCVs. It would be difficult to hurt a decent quality rebuilt 700R4 with a CUCV. I don't hold an ASE power train certification and I've not been rebuilding any of this stuff for 50 years. I do have common sense and...

    Official 2018 Ga. Military Vehicle Rally info thread. Oct. 17-21, 2018

    We are going to need a method of logging the ones received in advance. Filing is not one of my strong points.
