    M101A3 Upgrades

    Just a fyi that m105 and m101 use the same bow. They can be adjusted to either width. Sometimes they can be found cheaper when searching for m105 bows.😀

    Options/Opinions on Equipment Type Trailer to Pull Behind a Deuce.

    Xm1073 is air over hydraulic. 2 boosters and 2 master cyls. One per axle since they are 4 hubs with dual axle. They are the same booster and master cyl as the m103 and m820 etc that are air over hydraulic.

    Options/Opinions on Equipment Type Trailer to Pull Behind a Deuce.

    That difference strikes me as odd. I thought the flat tops were the same size or maybe the xm1073 as an inch or 2 bigger due to the outer channel beam construction? The laundry external Frame I put on mine was off a m1061 trailer and fit the xm1073 perfectly so I am going to double down the tops...

    M101a2 wheel- what valve stem?

    It can use a standard rubber stem but mine needed the bigger diameter not the regular auromotive one. Used on older 3/4 & 1 ton Tr425 is the correct bigger diameter.

    LOUISIANA PROPOSED NEW LAW : HB 549 Provides for Military Surplus Motor Vehicles

    Check post 184 for wording and application for surplus plate. Interstate and speed limit restrictions did NOT make into the bill. La stencil law is still on the books and as far as I know still valid. No one on ss has posted if they had issues with stencil vin since plate passed so unknown...

    Good vendor for Humvee covers and doors going out of business

    If you are a valid reseller or non profit with a tax exempt id number, they would let you order. They got out of the retail business due to the tax collect and remitting nightmare of trying to do it nationwide. They also sold the small part gizmos like handles and strikers etc.

    M107A1 Water Buffalo Questions?

    Interesting as I have the same parking brake handles and pump bracket but yours does not have the metal shelf over the water piping. X usually means they were experimental or pre production so maybe they were added to the final contract? Your plumbing also caught my eye as I don't recall the...

    M107A1 Water Buffalo Questions?

    Very nice. Looks in great shape. Mine has the Vietnam olive drab underneath the green carc. Can actually see the white US army on one side. I will probably start a thread on my refurb. Question for all? The tank is bare aluminum in some places. Is rustoleum rusty metal primer ok to use? Or...
