There is a starter/ alternator/generator shop in your area that the owners last name is Johnson. He is a member here & would most likely very happy to help get your starter back in as new shape. Your truck being a Deuce would make him want to help even more. I can't remember the name of the shop.

Welcome to the "Green Iron Addiction" & the board. Nice looking 998 you have won there. Good luck on recovery! Oh, & welcome from Florida...

I still have a M-1082 sitting in North Carolina waiting for a fellow SS member to pick it up. The trucking company that was supposed to get the first one stiffed me & luckily, Wes pulled it off base to avoid storage fees. I didn't bid on 2 more yesterday that went for a paltry $400.00 each...

He must be in some capacity, I got my title for the M-1082 today via Fed Ex Express. His name was on it like everything else he helped get straighten out. This one was only 5 weeks instead of five months. Thank you, Sir! Title transfer tomorrow without excess fees I hope.

If you were local, I have a dolly that will allow you to remove the double wheels without unbolting them. It makes brake inspection a easier task when working on concrete & it is NOS OEM Mil Spec. Good luck with taking care of the brakes & don't injure any more body parts. Keep us posted with...

Be advised that all the seats are different, only the drivers seat is adjustable. Also, the gunner & passenger seats are attached straight to the frame, not bolted on additional units. If you could find as new covers, foam padding & had a hog ring staple gun, you can put them back to original...

I would have never sold that truck, especially after you painted & fixed Her up so well. I do not know your circumstances, so I will shut up as to your business. She was sooooo nice though. :drool:

Welcome from North Florida, good luck on your trip.

Note to add, make sure the engine is either multifuel or gasoline & look inside the tank to see if it a sludgepot or clean & empty. Keep posting what you find & we all love pictures.

Your Drash support trailer reminds me of the Base-X 203 that is residing in the back of my Deuce. They would pair up well on a camping trip, just bring lots of fuel for the A/C's you have to have here in the Florida summer weather.

I'm waiting for my M-1082 to come home so I can get started to make sure she is totally road worthy to make into a tag along camper. Several members here have been a great help herding her toward her new home in Florida. Kudos to you guys as top notch members.

You gotta love those trucks from Ft Bragg. They treat them so well, always service them correctly, change out broken parts & assemblies. Then when they are sent to DERMO, it like getting a vehicle that was previously owned by a little old guy down the street who loved his vehicle. Not. Good...

If I can't pay for it, I can't have it. Financing Green Iron is sure lane straight to the poor house. Premium fees are bad enough, interest on the principal............no way!

Another chapter on Floridianson opens, James came over today & dropped off a couple of Ibis Tek tow bars from GL in Jax, a large box of LMTV axle seals, filters & other PM parts for the truck; but here is where he excels again. He insisted that we get the M-1081 brakes unstuck & succeeded after...

Remember that there are very generous members that will help you out via the SS express or in person for vehicles in distress here. It is not a normal thing that people, not knowing each other, will go to the levels that the members here will go for one another. Help is on the way when you ask...

I have 4 of the M-105's in the side yard from stages of uggh to freshly rebuilt. Only one does not have a cover, the rest are protecting gensets & other military items that don't do well in the out of doors. They were easy to recover, but there is the matter of the M-1082 @ Ft Bragg a few weeks...

That explains why the tires were so clean, snow....I wouldn't know how to drive in it either, just stay inside close to the wood stove.

You got the vehicle back, even if you had to get it unstuck from the mud. Plus one for the mud this time. They will do little to the thief, unfortunately, but if you do find out who he is, you can keep an eye out for this person.......

When I won a LMTV out of Ft Bragg, I used a broker & they found me a top notch trucking company that delivered home a running truck in a few days. I was very happy with the price & how the driver stayed in contact with me through out the entire pick up & delivery. The driver showed up on time &...

Wheelspinner is getting this together right now, so I think all is good for the time being. After all is said & done, I will feel better about this & will stop buying stuff I can't recover personally. This is another example of the fine people on Steel Soldiers who come together to help others...
