    Best guesses at a restored m1009's value in 2018 and beyond

    If he would have put same effort and cash into restoring to original condition, it would have brought a lot more money. Guys like that thinking that just because they spent a lot of money on it, it makes the truck worth more. Wrong!! Very rarely does it work that way. I wouldn’t even give...

    Tire/wheel options for M105a2

    Will not matter. DOT goes off data plate info and weight numbers. Not what’s been modified Yes a lot of $$ but still cheaper than an attorney and lawsuit Get what you can. Something is better than nothing. Workout a trade or ??

    Tire/wheel options for M105a2

    You will save money getting a M101A2. MUCH better for your Jeep as mentioned. Surge brakes and smaller wheels, better towing angle, not as wide......just to name few Even if you find smaller wheels, you still have to be able stop the trailer. That means new axle and electric brakes. Not...

    Tire/wheel options for M105a2

    That is a very big and heavy trailer for that Jeep. Install a transmission cooler and hope for the best. Edit Sell the M105A2 and find a M101A2. Much better suited trailer for your Jeep. Both in size and weight. They can also be made into really cool campers. Lots of examples to look at. Do...

    Best guesses at a restored m1009's value in 2018 and beyond

    Supply and demand. It’s that simple. It’s worth whatever someone’s willing to pay. Prices on GP are rising. Just go and look at the sold history and you can see the figures. Not as many are coming up for auction either. Someday.....sooner than later.....they will be gone. Their not making...

    Where to get a new starter?

    Don’t forget to use new starter bolts. They are one time use only. Upgrade your starter relay if you haven’t done it already. Search for Doghead Relay. Tons of info and how to.

    CUCV Drink Holder Ideas?

    It works and it’s messy too! Too small for what I need. Last time I tried that trick, it broke free at the wrong moment and I had sweet tea to clean up.

    I do not have the Dash Plate.

    CUCV Drink Holder Ideas?

    I have plenty of that type. Handle and no handle. It’s the stop at a convenience store and get a large coke or sweet tea and having a place to put it without spilling or wearing it or both.

    CUCV Drink Holder Ideas?

    I guess I missed that in my search. That will work! Can you post build details?

    CUCV Drink Holder Ideas?

    I sent you a text yesterday figuring you would have something already done. I like the fact it’s not permanent.

    CUCV Drink Holder Ideas?

    That looks great. I saw that in a different thread. Great pics and it shows the ammo can probably will not work after all. Too skinny for a standard 7-11 soda cup. I don’t drink them often but would like to have a place for it when I do. One could definitely build something off the base...

    CUCV Drink Holder Ideas?

    Something a little more low key is what I’m looking for. I don’t want the focus and prominent feature of the interior to be cup holders. Thats the dilemma. I will probably cut down a .30 cal ammo can, remove 24v fan and install on the fire extinguisher bracket.

    CUCV Drink Holder Ideas?

    I mentioned these earlier in the thread. Short of a cup of coffee or a standard soda can, how do they hold up? Do they hold a large soda styrofoam cup without issue?
