I'm thinking of fabbing up a generator compartment, under my M35A2C, where the spare and pioneer tool rack are.
I've searched for threads using "generator" with "compartment" and "box" and seem to have come up dry.
I've seen Jtonka's M109 and another M109 with the boxes. Also, there was a...
On Thursday, I bought an M35A2 W/W without a preview.
It has the winch, singles, hardtop, clean interior yadda, yadda, yadda and at $1647 I won't cry if it needs trailered or towed.
Is anyone going to Picitinny in the next few weeks that could look at the wee beastie and let me know if it...
I'm working my way through the -20 and -34 manuals and the archived threads trying to get through troubleshooting an M1008 tranny.
I picked the truck up from Lakehurst last week and it wouldn't shift into either reverse or third. First and second act correctly and shift at what seems to be the...
Hello Robyn
The post auction prices still don't bear any resemblance to fact and the "closed watchlist" feature is still down.
Last night we bought 2 trucks for about $1,650 each and the post auction prices show as $888 and $945.
Both were well over those amounts at the auction's scheduled...
Is anyone able to inspect a truck at Picatinny, in the next couple of weeks?
I just bought an M35A2 w/w. It's got a hard top and singles and the price was low enough ($1,643) that I grabbed it without an inspection.
I'm looking to find out if there's a reasonable chance of driving it out or...

A lot of the GL pictures either don't show the lower dash clearly or are very dark. is there a way to tell from engine compartment pics if a truck should have an air shift axle?
I'm nowhere near a parts manual or a truck to look at.

In the next 2-3 weeks I'll be making 3 trips to Fort Drum to pick up a bunch of items. If anyone needs and inspection done; please speak up!
If the time window between when I'm going and when you need the inspection fits, I'll be glad to help.
Until the EUC and invoice silliness is done I...
If a large transmission cooler were added to an M1008 and speeds were kept to 50-55 MPH, does anyone have a guess what would be a reasonable max towed load with a fifth wheel hitch?
I have a combo fifth wheel and gooseneck hitch in my F-350 that drops onto low profile mounting plates that are...
Does anyone know if the cushions for the older style box seat base and the newer sprung seat use the same cushions?
I'm looking for a lower cushion for a box seat and both cushions for a sprung seat.
Does anyone have any good clean cushions looking for a home?

I'm looking for enough info on finding and mounting a knuckleboom to be able to make an informed decision.
Input from anyone having experience and links to any existing threads would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Sometime in the next couple of weeks I'll be heading from central New York to Lakehurst, NJ to pick up an M1009 and an M1008.
If anyone needs something hauled either way or wants to team up to pick up their vehicles, please post a reply or launch a PM.
The current plan is for 3 of us to take...
I'm thinking of bidding on a trailer at Ft. Bragg. Has anyone done business there?
Also, does anyone know if the M103A3 trailer chassis (M105A3, etc) with dual line brakes needs air pressure to be able to move it? If things work out I'll pick up the trailer with my F-350 dually. It gets better...
I noticed that this show is not on the calender. It is a WWII air show and re-enactment in Reading, PA put on by the Mid-Atlantic Air Museum.
It usually has quite a variety of vehicles and aircraft show up. The website is http://www.maam.org/maamwwii.html
If you look at the lower right...
Hello
I am interested in a GL item for sale at Malmstrom AFB.
The item is already boxed and should just need taped shut with maybe a little more padding. It will be around 18"x18"x40" and likely weigh less than 40 pounds.
I will FAX or email a shipping label so it can be dropped, pre-paid...
Hello All
Spent part of the afternoon with Jack Gregory tinkering with various power pack components.
The upshot of the visit is that he wants me to ask if anyone knows where to find:
An engine wiring harness for a Continental 895.
A hull wiring harness.
A turret wiring harness.
A "jumper"...
Hello, I'm new to the site but am guessing that this is the place for this question.
I'm looking for a "Spring, heat control" PN 7410093 for the vacuum heat control lever for a Continental AO-895-3 engine for an M41A1 tank. Any help with either finding the part or info on any dealers or...
