I just had Goodyear 16.00x20's mounted on my M54. It doesn't wander from lane to lane as I was told it would, however it bounces pretty bad. What tire pressure should I start with? And can I guess changing it in 5 pound increments would make a noticable difference? And how do I stop the...

I am in DIRE NEED of a Gama Goat radio mounting plate! It is aluminum, about 18 inches wide (measurements from memory), about 3 inches tall, and about 20 inches deep. The front is at a 45 degreee angle, with an overhang, if that makes any sense. There will be a bolt hole pattern to fit a...

After reading, studying, buying, and learning a bunch about Goats, I saw something today I have never seen or even heard of before. Alex at IMP got a Goat in the other day. He called me and want to come look it over. I noticed a box (about 4 inches wide, 8 inches tall, and 3 inches deep) bolted...

A good friend of mine called me this morning and said the constant smell of antifreeze coming from under the hood of his HMMWV has been determined to be probably from the 4 inch CRACK IN THE BLOCK! Anyone know of any relatively easy conversions?

Ok, here is a good one. I have heard and read somewhere that true military paint is "radar absorbent". If that is true, does anyone know to what extent, and how exactly they make it so? Is there some additive? I have zapped military rigs driving down the road with my radar (yeah right, I...

A friend of mine just brought home a Case VAIW in pretty good condition. I guess it is some type of runway tug. It needs a little love in a few areas, particularly the rear fender and the front plate (both missing). Anyone know of any sources for parts for this thing? It is kind of cool, in...

I am in want of either the M762 version or the bigger 3/4 ton version (I don't know the "M" series number for the 3/4 ton version) trailer that has the crank-up antenna mounted on its bed. Usually the antenna is about 40 feet tall when raised, and pivots flat to travel when cranked down. I have...

Might anyone have two CX-10613 cables,(in working condition), both about 4 or 5 feet long? I need two to complete my cable-absorbing project (my comm-model Gama Goat). With all due respect,for considerably less than an arm and a leg, and you don't want my first-born. These have the three...

I have installed a VIC-1 Intercom system in my Gama Goat, (along with numerous other money consuming radio set-ups!). Anyway, I have cabled the VIC-1 as per the diagram found elsewhere, here on SS. With one minor possible variation. Here is my question.... can I "daisy-chain" the two C-2298...

I was at the show in Idaho, and saw a rather strange M416 variant. It was an M416, (according to the data-tag,tub, fenders, etc). It also had a data tag on the front passenger side saying "AN/MRC-111" and had a schematic of a rather elaboarte radio setup of some sort. There were 1/2 inch holes...

I have a plain-jane M54, about a 1968 or so. Multi-fuel, and up until today, on the way home from the Memorial Day Services, absolutely NO problems. I noticed on the way home that I didn't have any headlights, brake-lights, or turn signals. I am relatively certain I had the switch in the...

I am needing one of those 68 foot long coax cables, with proper connecters ( I think one end needs an apadter) to connect my RC292 mast antenna to my RT524. Anyone have an extra one laying around? THANKS GUYS.

I fell into a searchlight and a MEP026C generator. Both are complete. I want to run the searchlight off of the gen set. I have seen photos of the two on a M762 trailer (GI photo). I have been told that the gen won't start the light, because it doesn't have enough to get the light going, but...

I now need a REAR antenna mount for the Gama Goat carrier, part number #SC-D-446390. Anyone?

Anybody have the rear corner carrier antenna mount ( part number #SC-D-446390)? It is different from the front corner mounts, I already have a couple of those.

I also posted this in the Gaom Goat section, MODS can move as need be. I finally found out exactly which part I need for my radio installation in my Goat. I need part number SC-F-446380. I would like two, but will settle for 1, but REALLY would like two. Anyway, it's about the same height and...

I found out exactly which mount I need for my Goat. I am needing 2, (but will humbly settle for 1) mount, part number # SC-F-446380. It looks like it is about the same height and width as a MT1029 mount, only it's about 2-3 inches tall. It goes under the MT1029 mount, like a sponson plate for...

Gentlemen, I am in the market for a GRC-106, doesn't really have to work, but must be complete and visually proper. ( A working one would be cool, too). I would also like to appropriate an RT246, and at least two R442'S. AND, I would REALLY like a picture of the proper mounting of...

The Idaho Military Vehicle Preservation Association is having their yearly get-together pretty soon. It is June 8,9, and 10th. We have it right off the interstate at exit #3, on Interstate-84, at the "Idaho Motor Pool".. Free camping, hotels are just a few miles away, and oh...

Hi guys, new guy here. I am restoring a 1973 M561, in a communications-radio configuration. Does anyone have a good pic of how the radio stuff is arranged in the rear carrier? I realize it will need at least one, and probably two of RT246's (524's), and a couple of R442's. I am going to want to...
