    Putting a Deuce bed on an M813 ?

    Hey anyone ever try it ? I realize a million threads on putting a Deuce bed on an M818 tractor but I'm thinking about doing it to an M813. I have an 813 that needs a cab and bed. I have a deuce I cut up for parts with a clean cab and bed. The Deuce bed looks like it will fit without shortening...

    M813 needs air cleaner, is M939 the same ?

    Well, much sadness but I sold my M52a2. It went to a good home. So I pulled my M813 out of mothballs and want to get going on it to ease my pain of loss . This truck is missing some parts but the big item is the air cleaner. Someone hacked an M39 series onto it so I need to get the correct...

    M52a? Questions

    Ok been playing with this thing for awhile and still trying to figure out what I actually have. Someone told me the windshield hinges indicated it's a mid 60's IHC gasser that was converted to a Mack driveline. Judging by the horrible conversion, that looks to be accurate. All the holes for the...

    Did the military use any detachable gooseneck trailer ?

    Anyone have a Mack powered 5 ton with a heater ?

    I have a heater from a Deuce which I believe is the same as my M52a1 would use but for the life of me I can't see where I would hook up heater hoses on the engine. Mine has a Mack ENDT 673 and I could not find any TM covering a heater with this engine.

    M923 250 Cummins stalled in traffic. Fuel problem ?

    I was towing an M103a3 back from New Hampshire and was stuck in traffic on I495. Was crawing along for about 20 mins when all of a sudden, the truck died.

    Just picked up two MEP 002a's with trailer

    Nice score from the auctions. They both look pretty clean. Where should I start ? They both need batteries. Can I get some pointers on the initial "try to fire them up" ? Aside from the obvious(fuel,oil)What do I need to know ? I did read the wiki posted above.

    Getting an SF97 from GSA

    Won a truck from them and got the release but for the life of me can't figure out how to apply for the SF-97, They have not responded to my inquiry on it and I find no place on their website to apply for it. It was not sold as Salvage or scrap so I should be able to get one no ? Anyone deal with...

    Flat towing an M1009 with an M923

    What would be the appropriate towbar to use ? Can a 5 ton even tow an M1009(M923 much higher). I have an event coming up that I would like to flat tow an old M1009 to with my 5 ton.

    M105a2 to camper conversion.

    I'm not sure if my side racks are backwards or not. Right now the wood is facing in. Should it face out ? I grabbed this pic off the net but they almost look backwards.

    m923 Transmission is making a buzzing sound when I put it in 1st or reverse

    I am told this means the transmission is toast ? Please tell me this isn't the case. Sounds like a faint low air warning buzzer. The truck still seems to drive fine in fact it went away at one point. I should have kept my Deuce.
