Thanks for the info. It looks like I got a Chinese knock off. Pisser! Can you recommend a dealer or dealers? Also, by your comment, I assume that real ones have some type of markings stamped on them? Thanks

Hello Gents It's been a while since I've been to the forum. My HMMWV is due for a minor restoration. I recently bought a new pair of rear tail light assembly and a pair of buckets too. However, when I dropped the tail light into the bucket I can't get the last inch to go in. I thought these...

Try contacting Thehummerguy on the G503. He has an uncanny nose for finding HMMWV parts and accessories. With Austin Aviation (Beltfed34 on eBay) I've been told that he doesn't always notify people when a certain part or item comes in. You just have to constantly check his site and it's...

Check out Austin-Aviation-HMMWV-Surplus (User name Beltfed34) on eBay http://stores.ebay.com/Austin-Aviation-HMMWV-Surplus And click on Boom! Boom! & Rata-tat-tat-.. He sells a lot of surplus items. Sometime new but usually used. If you're willing to clean it up and give it a fresh coat of...

On average I've seen them run from $500 to $1,500. On the west coast they usually cost more because there are fewer of them out here. Plus most of the one out here were bought back east and shipped west. So when they sell they try to recover that cost. The A2 & A3 usually sell for more and...

The 76" came from the TM. I have never owned an M-101A1 or been able to compare my A2 to the A1. So I really don't know for sure. I'm just trusting the TM. I've been wanting to turn my trailer in to a camper as well. I looked at the s250 shelter but I just felt it was too small. I wanted...

By the way, here are the specs for the M101 and A2/A3 (which are a little bigger.) Also keep in mind that the measurements given are for the cargo body and not the bed which I measure with a tape measured. DIMENSIONS Overall: Length...

The new M1101/2 are a fairly bigger than the M101. They are between an M101 & a M105. Here are the dimensions. L 102-7/8 W 80-1/3 WW 56-4/6 (wheel well with) This is about an inch wider than the HMMWV bed. So you can see it is about a foot longer and wider than the M101. The space between...

Hi Rubicon51 Here are the interior bed dimensions of my M101A2. L - 95 15/16 with the tailgate close exactly 96. W - 65 With between the wheel wells 45 1/2 So unfortunately it looks like your camper is a tad too big. However, I think it would fit in the new M1101 trailers designed for the...

That might have been the reason. I did change my password then it seemed like I had to log in a couple of times during my session. Thanks M16ty

Dear Webmaster Recently when I accessed the forum, I noticed that the "Conversation" thread under the "General" section is not always displaying. Do you know what the cause is? Thanks

Gent I need to repaint a replica .50. I was wondering for those of you that have a real .50. What spray paint comes closest to the real color? I know Irac Inc says they use Krylon Ultimate Flat Black. Also, is the color on a real .50 a flat color or more of a satin? Also, for those of you...

Thanks Ems The G503 has a separate section for Weapons & Mounts. I thought SS would have something similar.

Is there a separate section on the forums for weapons and mounts? Thanks

Gents I'm looking for a Mk-64 mount or any other 50 cal mount that has a pintle that will fit on a tripod for my HMMWV turret. I have two M-23 and a M-60 mount for trade if you are interested or I will buy. Thanks
