I purchased the bracket and light shown in the trailer parts section of a local auto parts store. The light was chrome, so I scuffed and painted it. I forget the bulb number, but it's the same one used in the b.o. lights. I don't like NAPA's tag bracket and light; I found the style shown at an...

There are two sets of numbers: chasis and military "hood" number. Some of the trucks I got in had just the frame number, which is what you have, on the Form 97. Some had just the military "hood" number ie: O4JXXX71, while others combined the two.

Whoa! $55.00 for a mounting plate? No wonder I sold out @ $15.00 ea.! Still have heaters, but you need to come here to put a complete unit together. $200.00

I got one, a pretty complete one. like down to the springy thing, justa layin' in my garage waitin' on $2200.00, no ship.

There are a few different versions of the crank-up landing gears, but all of the ones I've come across were interchangeable, as in bolted right up.

I was informed that civy wheels wouldn't work, so I called and ordered from Parramore. $150.00 ea. new.

I got brand new ones from Houston Parramore. Big bucks, though.

Mike, You were right on! I didn't know that there was a fuse involved and I found a blown one. Replaced it and am back in business. Age and experiene causes me to get too technical and I overlook the simple things! Thanks much, Joe

My CUCV pickup started and ran fine the other day, but after it sat for about half a day, the Wait and Water in Fuel lights did not come on and it didn't want to start. I applied 12 volts to a lug on the glow plug solenoid (on firewall) to activate it and the motor started fine. I tried several...

I've heard of multifuels getting locked up by fuel in the cylinders. I forget the tech name for this problem, but it does lock the motor up. Gotta drain the fuel, I guess by pulling the injectors and cranking the motor to blow the fuel out? Does not appear to be a bearing problem.

Do a compression test. Might have some burnt or non-seating valves.

It's my understanding that the LDS-427-2 was one of the first multifuels and it was extremely unreliable. I would never, ever, buy a truck with that engine in it. I base this on what I've heard.

Why not get an Operators Manual and get a lot of questions answered? I can't understand why newbies don't study before operating these, or any, trucks.

My New Life top was perfect in every way. My Weebe did NOT have the steel reinforcements. Maybe they caught on and started installing them.

No need for one. Truck is not a schoolbus. Existing external mirrors should be adequate. As to the high beam indicator, I think you should obtain an Operators Manual. Edited: Manual should be available at the LOGSA site.

Mine came from New Life. Whatever you decide on, be sure that the back piece has the metal reinforcements in the side panels. I once had a top from another company, not mentioned here, that did not have the reinforcements, but that was several years ago.

Yes, Gary, cork.

I use to get rebuild kits for the M35A2 pak from Memphis. Fidty some bucks. Don't know if they have any more.

NJ DMV rejected my Form 97s made out to GL. Had to be in my name. GL's letter of reasignment meant nothing.

Ken, that's the best description I've ever read.
