    government liquidation sucks again

    Low blow sir, low blow. :whistle: Now that was uncalled for... if they were still mad about it I don't think they'd even answer the phone when they saw it was me!

    What is this mount on my fender?

    GI in the motor pool was bored, and found something to do.

    government liquidation sucks again

    That's why I love getting stuff from Jackson or Eastover. "Hey Tim, I got a truck to pick up." 'what time can you be here?' "I'm at the gate" 'ok, you know where it is?' "Yep" 'Alright hook up and get with me for paperwork before you leave' 90% of your GL experiance has to do with the people...

    Military low boy trailers 15-20k

    You'd have to put a wetline kit on a tractor (easy if it is a M932, tie it into the winch hydraulics) or put a pony engine and pump or a 24vdc power pack on the trailer.

    Time for everyone's favorite game!!!!! I.D. That Jeep!!!!!!

    M38. Can't be a M38a1, that tailgate looks factory. also, the map compartment is on the right. And if I remember my M38A1 correctly, the headlight rings were actually set back in the grill.

    Reworking Deuce spring seat into an air ride seat.

    Very interesting! I put air ride seats from an up-armored M925 in my M915, and they make a world of difference.

    air line size?

    He is thinking 5 ton. Deuce's don't have gladhands on the front. I think they are 3/8 or 1/2 caps needed. Never hurts to buy both sizes and then the ones you don't need, put in the tool box. I have a set of plugs from 1/4 up to 1in in my tool box, never know when something might blow on the road.

    Oh, so THATS what a pickle fork is for! And here I always wondered, "how the heck do you get a pickle out of a jar, and eat it, with THAT?"

    G177 Tire Pressures?

    Napa, or any big truck place or tire shop should be able to get them.

    G177 Tire Pressures?

    I did not have to flip the shim on the M109 and it tracks and rides great. I have read of many others that have had to though. I love these tires on a deuce- 12k miles and they still look new!

    G177 Tire Pressures?

    What DH posted is a very good starting point. I have found though trial and error that 80 front and 65 rear on my M109 are the best pressures for THAT truck. You're best handling pressures might be different, as a 109 weighs more.

    SC meet and greet

    Yes, it is still on for the 25th. Again people are welcome to show up in whatever they want to drive, plenty of parking. We will also have a M37 race track set up in the pasture!

    Restoration underway

    Nice Ford tractor, has the same loader as my 1963 4000... Jeep looks good! will pass a drive by and probably a pretty close inspection. Jeeps are just meant to be green!

    Tinkerbell does not approve of this. If we wanted to have whole cow or elephant roasts, I could convert the tankcar.

    Allison M916 + Mk48 Cab = 6x6 "FEMTT"

    Craig and I got to my AO around 0130 this morning. He had another 2hr drive home after that, poor fella. Had a great time, and next year, the owner has given me permission to use the railroad. Bwahahahahah! :mrgreen:

    1957 GMC, Chrysler OR 1978 AM General 6x6 Deuce

    Me and Tinkerbell appriciate that. Some people take lots of truck bits and build a truck. My guess, as others have said, is the title came with another truck that might have met an untimely death, and it either got plates from that dead truck, or the truck was sold to the current owner with...
