    MK-48 FPU Batteries and seats

    You can take the seats to an upholsterer that does boat seats or custom seats for hot rods. Unless you just want the military canvas look you can have them done in fabric or vinyl. I had a guy do a deuce springer seat using the small Army shelter halfs. Unless you just want the Milspec...

    Who Bought Those Oshkosh MK-48s???

    The mission is starting to gell. Myself and 73M819 (Ron) will be unassing my AO at zeroearlythirty Monday for the drive to J'ville. Depending on Mr. Murphy we should be at the Forward Operating Base late Monday afternoon. I've booked lodging at the Holiday Inn Express just off the...

    Newbie - MK48 Advice

    Welcome to my world and the insane world of MV ownership.:cookoo: I wanted a 5 ton wrecker so bad I could taste it......when I got it I was like the dog chasing the car...when I caught it it was a lot more than I could handle. Can you say money pit? We all live and learn.......and it's all...

    Newbie - MK48 Advice

    For the price they went for in J'ville a few weeks ago I'm still kicking my own arse for not breaking out the backup credit card. I loved driving the HEMMT's in Korea.....over there the bigger you are the more right of way you have. We used to haul used tank track for the M1's in our...

    Just bobbed an M923

    That's tougher than woodpecker lips.[thumbzup][thumbzup] I had in mind another deuce bob but since 900's are so cheap now there may be one with super singles, air ride and crew cab in my future.

    Newbie - MK48 Advice

    These trucks have the Double O 92 Silver series Detroit engines which are two stroke.....they burn oil just like a two stroke motorcycle...under load or with a restricted air cleaner they smoke like a freight train. If a Detriot is not leaking oil then there is no oil in it. My guess is that...

    Great Trucker

    I think I met him at Restone one time......if it's the same guy he had a very cool trailer that could haul all kinds of stuff. It had an onboard winch, ramps and adjustable lenght.

    I have brand new tank mount brackets (the ones that bolt to the frame) if anybody needs them to install a second tank.

    NHC 250 hours before rebuild

    It was not uncommon in the old days to get a million miles out of one before a rebuild. On of the issues with former military trucks is the time they sit doing nothing. Seals dry out, pistons can get stuck, injector pumps go bad. Ya pays your money and ya takes your chances. The 250 is an...

    925 Won't Start

    Move the hand brake up and down several times.......there is a switch on my M927 (it is the Harsco version with the 8.3 Cummins in it) that sometimes sticks and until you mess with it a few times the truck won't crank. Drove me crazy until I figured out it was just one of the quirks the truck has.

    Speaking of 939A2's
