    Welcome from N GA. That truck looks pretty solid. It appears to be sitting on deuce axles. Would like to hear more about it. Check out the M715 Zone as well. 715s of any type are welcome here.

    They were both used for heater intakes. Why 2, I don't know.

    Just remember, if you want to stretch mine, you have to catch it. It will run this speed all day long and 80 in bursts..

    1951 reo m35 or m59 brake issue.

    That is a faulty airpack regardless of age. Now, if they start applying after a few stops, that could be other items. If you crank the air above 60 and the brakes apply themselves, that is airpack for sure.

    Hopefully it won't be mine. As much as I curse it, no one had better lay an ill hand on it. Besides, it's like a rolling hardware store.

    M101A2 Trailer Cover

    Tentage repair kits usually have stuff for that. Tent adhesive and tarp material makes for a durable repair.

    All M1028s came with the overload springs from the factory. ORD also has a warning about the ubolt kit not working without a shackle flip. Something about the ubolt plates contacting the springs.

    Will welding to the top of a shackle pin damage its temper?

    I can't say for sure but on several vehicles I've owned, I drilled them like a towbar pin and added a keeper that way.

    I know what you mean about the ride. I just drove one of mine 750 miles (again) yesterday. Congrats.

    Well, my 40 hour workdays in retirement have ceased. I've just returned from my last trip to the FL house, it's in the hands of my most capable realtor/author. Now hopefully I can rummage through my stuff to find what I need for the RT. Pleasant surprise here in N GA, the kids have a fall...

    CUCVs on base. How many left?

    There is a whole buch of brandy new looking ones palletized ready for shipping. They are sitting right behind the stacks of WWII Jeeps in crates that were selling for $50.
