    Object on humvee wheel

    Winch is definitely not the primary reason. Same purpose as M151 M715 etc, you move the rear tie down shackles to the wheel end to provide a tie down point on rail cars, airdrop pallets, C130/C17 etc. That “winch” idea comes from a WWII era FM.

    Things to know purchasing 1951 bantam m416/m100

    Its (edit:not) a M100. 416s have angular fenders. Maybe you can find a modern trailer axle that matches your Jeep’s lug pattern so you don’t need a second spare tire. Edit: see below post, it’s a WW2 era MB-T.

    New to me 1984 M1010 Engine Question #1

    When was your injection pump last rebuilt? If you have good clean fuel coming to the IP and the return line is clear, the plastic parts inside your IP are wearing out.

    M923 A1 Axle Question & Prep For Long Drive

    Introduction and pictures

    Welcome. Looks like a great truck to start with. TI can mean Technical Inspection. Yes the reproduction harnesses are high dollar, lots of hours of manual labor involved to make them. It’s funny, another new member on here just bought a M37 as well, his irreplaceable hard top (same as yours...
