    New steering wheel & horn button

    How about a current civilian deuce nut? Remove the horn button, try to find someone who will let you use their steering wheel puller, stuff the horn wire down the column a little way to protect it, pop the wheel off. The new horn button kit is an excellent upgrade, you will mount the new...

    m54 front wheel nuts

    They are the same as civilian Budd wheel nuts. Your local truck parts or truck spring shop will have them in stock, Last I bought were about $1.75 each. Maybe higher now, I bought them 2 years ago. JT

    106mm recoilless rifle progress

    How about taking that 106 Mule to the inaugration? I know, you don't want to be the cause of over filling the 5000 portajohns. Just a thought.

    Diesel generators

    Those gensets won't run in your area, too many wind generators setting up destructive EMF, loses pulse to the capacitive inductant digeradoos, makes big trouble. Let someone south east of you buy them. :-P

    Saw this on E-Bay

    I thought it was one of John Winslow's as soon as I saw it, quite a few years ago my son and I saw our first 4x4 deuce when we stopped to visit with John at his place. That is where my JATonka XM 35A4 conversion deuce idea came from. Our claim to fame was using an M105 body and finishing the...

    Injector cleaning

    I came across about 75 American Bosch 2 hole injectors for our Multifuel engines, took them and 4 injector pumps and a screwed up injector pop tester (courtesy of one of our members) to DW Diesel Electric in Latham, NY last summer. They tested all the injectors and put about 15 in a "GOOD" box...

    Where can I find a J pipe?

    It is a 1967 Kaiser Jeep early Gun Truck on a brand new M35A2. In 67 there were mostly M35 and M35A1s over in Nam. I built the truck to the time frame for the earliest ones. They were deuces and they used what ever guns they could find. Mine has 2 1919A4s on ACAV shields and 1 M2HB on a rear...

    Where can I find a J pipe?

    Big Elk50, no offense taken at all. These J-pipes are a son of a gun to ship, and they are not cheap when brand new military issue instead of after market stuff. I have been sending people all over the place to try to buy good used or new closer to home to save some of the shipping. This is the...

    deuce air pak

    I find that the airpack that has not been lubricated often enough with a very small amount of OHT will almost always, as in ALWAYS, stick on when brakes are applied shortly after the OHT is added. I have screwed up 3 airpacs by adding OHT after I bought deuces from GL that hadn't been...

It is common to use air to push the various hraulic and air cylinders apart, but you should be experienced at it...

    Garwood Winch Specs

    the 2 1/2 ton 10000 lb winch still can't hold 300 feet of 1/2" cable and work with it, plus your line pull would be more reduced. so, maybe they meant 200 feet of 1/2" cable which is what is published in many operator and maintenance manuals. back to the 101

    Garwood Winch Specs

    I know it sounds impossible, but what if someone made a mistake? That's what those last pages in all the TMs are for, no? JT My garwood 10K winches on the front of my deuces won't fit 300 of cable. unless you use sideboards
