Hi all,
I see a ringmount on Ebay that is listed as being in New York, NY with local pickup only. Before I bid on it I wanted to see if anyone could pick it up and ship to me or bring to me in Ann Arbor MI. I would reimburse any costs involved plus extra to sweeten the deal. Anyone that...
I noticed that when my hazard flashers are on the back lights alternate and it looks like the bright bulb is not working in any position. Dim light comes on when using the turn signal to the right and when the parking and running lights are on. I have not been able to check to see if the brake...
First off, I know anything will fit with enough weld and plate steel. That being said, will the winch off an 813 5 ton bolt on to the M35a2? Is the 813 a pto winch also? If so, will the PTO fit the m35 trans? I would expect the driveshaft is longer and would I would need a shaft from an M35. Is...

I can not find a local source for ether canisters for the cold start system on my deuce. Can anyone help with a source or possibly let me know a ball park price? I checked my local truck stop shops and got a "huh what?" reaction...
I was looking under the hood of my newly acquired Deuce and I noticed that the temperature sending unit for the ether injection has one terminal connected to a wire running toward the firewall. The other has part of a solderless connecter. It looks like this was a broken connector to connect...
Where is the best place to get the two brackets that attach the newer style parking brake hangle to the floor? I have an older style ratchet handle that is worn out. I also need the cable. Is there any good junk yards in my area to check or do any parts suppliers seem to stock off the wall stuff...
I got one and installed it but I could not get it to work. It allows the turn signals to work all the time and I could only get the service drive to flash then go off. The buttons were orange then I pushed the service drive and then enter and the buttons turned blue then went off. This was at...
I used to do it in the Army all the time. I would just tap the first battery in the series to get 12 volts for lights etc. Anyone have any experience with this type of setup? When uncle sam paid for the repairs it was not a problem but now I have to pay. I did not have any problems when doing...
What is a fair price? Are they rare to find for sale or are the more common? This mount does not have the cradle. It was on ebay with a starting price of $1000 but this seemed like too much. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

I can not remember the size of stencil we used to mark our bumpers and windshields on our deuces in the 101st Airborne. I think it was 1 inch for driver and vehicle commander on the windshield and 3 inch for the bumper markings. Can anyone verify this for me?
Thanks

I saw where some folks have gotten Deuce insurance from Gulfway. I tried to google it with mixed results. Does anyone have a contact name and number or even just the number.
Thanks

I got a chance to check out my truck today. I really lucked out. Thanks for all the feedback about checking the fluids. Everything was fine. I will have to put in some lube in the front diff and the Radiator. I had trouble when I got to the master cylinder. Instead of the plug I expected to find...
I spoke to one of the people at Secretary of State's headquarters in Lansing and she told me an sf97 issued to me will do to get the deuce registered but it seems like most of the time the SF is in GL's name. Anyone have any comments on their experience in Michigan?
Thanks
Chuck
I am taking a closer look at my deuce at DRMO at Selfridge in MI. I am going to evaluate towing or driving home when my euc gets approved. What tools do I need to bring to check all the fluids? I plan to check the trans, transfer case, all diffs, brake fluid, and oil. This thing was driven in so...
