    What did your FMTV do TO YOU today ?

    Mine keeps looking @ me, wondering when I am going to finally get that drivers side window & installed so the tarp can come off. I have a piece of plexiglas that would work in the meantime, but DOT does not allow that, nor do the insurance companies.

    Another trick that will keep your shoes from sticking if you have to leave it parked for an extended period of time is to fully air up the brake system with the trailer connected. Make sure your wheels are chocked first & then install the caging bolts into the spring brakes canister, tighten the...

    M1082

    Mine now has a tan 5 ton top on it that I got for $20.00 NOS, plus 74 - 81mm mortar cans & 68 - 120mm mortar cans. So that means storage for me too, completely full.

    truck stalling /dying

    Clean filters & fresh fuel make for a happy Deuce, those items are much cheaper than a tow to the repair shop. The Parker fuel pump that they were selling on the auction house was a great intank fuel pump replacement that was stripped from demilled MRAP's a few years back. Did you go with a OEM...

    What's missing in pic, plug? no plug?

    I left my plugs as received, in the blank holder, not sealing up the clutch assembly.

    My new M1102 chassis trailer

    Yes, the M-353 is a very heavy duty trailer, got one in the back yard for some unknown reason, just had to have it.

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    Anybody know how to make a 5 ton cover fit a Deuce truck?

    Almost 10 years later and I remembered my log in, found my first deuce

    Nice truck, but where is the injector pump pull handle to kill the engine? You might need that. Shouldn't be expensive or hard to replace.

    m35a2 cargo cover install

    As stated elsewhere, I found a vendor @ the Bellview show several weeks ago that was selling a NOS camo cover for $250.00 & the bows & staves for $150.00 extra. The bows were a mismatched rusty lot & there was no hardware to assemble it with, but after cleaning the bows & painting them to one...

    m35a2 cargo cover install

    This truck looks like one of mine that I use infrequently, other than mine is never empty. I just completed replacing the old troop seats from the tan truck into the newer camo truck & the associated staves, elbows & vinyl top. Installing the troop seats & cover is not that hard if you have a...

    What did you do to your trailer today.

    Nope, that ain't happening again. Got shed of mine over 10 years ago & never looked back. If she was still around, I would have nothing, no house, no trucks & trailers, no guns. Some things are meant to be rented, not bought. ;-).

    What did you do to your trailer today.

    I picked up another trailer for the herd. Is there a cure for this affliction? Besides death or over taxation?

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    The 1985 Deuce I got from GP last September now is sporting troop seats & a complete cover set of bows, staves & the camo cover from the Bellview show a couple of weeks ago. The bows were a bit rough mismatched set, but some paint work will fix that. The staves were all fiberglass in great...

    2018 Georgia Military Vehicle Rally buy-sell-trade

    Your big tent is the cover part of the expandable 16' x 16' tent system. It is the older version with the black interior, as the newer ones are white. The end caps are separate as is the frame system. Great price, now back to your regular scheduled program.
