I actually owned an M978 once! I have to be the only guy that owned three HEMTTs...an M978, M977 and now an M983.

Cevon, you might be the most crazy collector I have ever met...and that means something coming from a guy that MANY people think is crazy for what I own! Congratulations, Cevon!

RGDL, what type of 5 ton do you have? The older trucks had PTO driven winches and the later trucks have hydraulic winches (PTO runs hydraulic pump). The latter are fairly rare. They can be found, but the will also cost more. The older style complete winch kit are available for around a...

Anyone know where I can find an uncut S280 shelter for a deuce? I'd like a nice one if possible? It would be best if it was located within a two state radius of Maryland, but I would consider any. Please let me know what you have.

RebelPride, if you plan to seriously and frequently off-road, you need a winch...no questions asked. You may not need it, but if you do, it will cost you...either in time or money. With all that said, I have owned dozens of trucks, many with a winch. I have taken many of them trail-riding and...

A lot depends upon whether or not the wife actually comes. Just like you, we have a young son. If she comes, we will come up early Saturday AM...really early...and drive back in the PM. If she does not come, then I would try to make it on Friday and stay to either Saturday or Sunday. I am...

I am going to try to make it with my wife. Assuming I can figure out childcare, I will most likely be coming in my M1028A2.

Beautiful job, Jason!

Walter, did they let you drive it?

I would bet that some have gotten out, but I'd say as a generalization that you won't see any. In this country, as opposed to the UK, it is generally frowned upon to drive tracked vehicles on the roads. I am not sure of the legality, per se, if the tracked vehicle has rubber track pads (as...

Checking of fuel levels is not a safety issue. Stay around this site long enough and you will hear about guys driving trucks home hundreds of miles only to hit the list after they get home to inquire about how to check their brake fluid. I also remember a guy who only found out he didn't have...

Maybe people are lucky that GL will not help load. Can you imagine the catastrophy if GL started the truck without lubes?!?! Come to think of it, they may have done so when they noted that the truck ran! I have seen guys start trucks and floor the pedal to get them to run smoothly...who knows...

Done and done!

...now add 10% and tax.

There is a tool that you screw into the spring brake cannisters to release the brakes so the truck can roll freely...as in it was towed to the site.

Jay, I wish I could say that I won it! However, I can't say that because I did not win it. That was a lot of coin for a rare truck, but it seemed kinda high for an unknown...and this comes from someone who had a trained military truck mechanic inspect the truck. Still, if the truck runs...

Dan is correct. You need some sort of titling document. Some states require a title or SF97 in your name. Others are willing to accept a bill of sale.

ACTIONFIGUREBOB has a deuce with snow plow for sale in MD. He is a good friend and I can vouch for the truck. Beautiful truck...air shift...troop seats...winch...hard and soft top...comes with M105. Contact him if you are interested.

Get the inspection sticker and park the truck outside whenever the weather permits. If you find the idiot who complained, park the truck in front of their house...preferably when they have company over or around holidays.

My yellow ENGINE did not have a rebuild sticker. A friend has multiple A3s...one with a green motor and two with yellow...no rebuild stickers.
