Robb, We have the Unimog truck and the Heater....just need the cord that connects 24V from the truck to the back of the Swingfire heater itself. I don't know of any controller needed. The cords I have seen are usually white and have a connector on each end. Thanks for your help. TiredIron

We've got a 404 Radio Truck with the Swingfire Heater....but no power cord to try and fire it up. Does anyone know a source for these cords....or have a extra they'd sell?? Thanks Gents Tirediron

I was stationed at Holloman AFB in the 49th TAC Fighter Wing from 1973-1976. This was always my favorite pic of one of our birds..... http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/c/c4/Hol-f4e.jpg TiredIron

Eberspächer is probably the worlds largest producer of gasoline and diesel fueled heaters. They supply many military forces around the world. They make them in 12 & 24V. The only down side is their price. Google em' and watch the usual auction sites. TiredIron

The M66 Ring which has gone unchanged for nearly 65 years has standard "large" pintel socket. It also came with an adapter to change it to the standard "small" pintel size socket. The cradle you select will be matched to the weapon....not the M66 ring. The M1917-1917A1-1919A4 series weapons will...

I will try and climb up there and get an accurate measurement and maybe a couple of pics this week. TiredIron

I have the Deuce...the M66 Ring mounted....and have been firing the 50 M2HB standing and sitting through the Hardtop Gun Port for the last 5 years. I don't have the cab reinforcement plate. I always thought that was for cab stress while moving offroad with #550-600lbs of weight on the three...

hmmmmm.....your off by 1.4-1.5 inches...they're a little taller. Better check this actual chart from Michelin and remember the specs differ from manufacturer to manufacturer. Army Military Tires TiredIron

You might run four of them......but not six. 8-) TiredIron

I agree...mostly. I have been through the bonding process on several vehicles through the entire process in Douglas County with no problems. With nothing more than a bill of sale an inspection and a wait. You say I don't have a bill of sale from GL....isn't the "Paid in Full" invoice that they...

Thanks for all the information. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt that you understood my concern was more about titling a 2.5 ton truck that is being cut down into a 5/4 ton custom vehicle of which there is no legal or military designation. The truck/trucks were originally "born" prior to...

I just picked up my fourth Deuce....a nice A3 from Ft.Carson. This is the first Deuce though that I have bought from GL. They didn't offer me any paperwork or anything that looked like a SF97 to help get a title. What is the standard procedure to acquire the 97 now that I have the truck? Next...

Nice looking truck. I wish you were closer to Denver as I would trade you a NOS Tan Cargo Cover for your Woodland Camo Cover. TiredIron

Does anyone know of a shop that will Bob a Deuce in or near Denver Colorado..?? I'm just checking my options to see if I'll have to tackle it myself.....as I don't have the space or an actual shop. Thanks in Advance TiredIron
