I started with metal/fiberglass HMMWV sideracks. Member 1954coe welded on an extension to the front. Some cutting and trimming and drilling of new holes and it fits pretty well. Already conceptualized a front rack using a M105 front rack but haven't started it yet. After that, use standard...

Probably the 1st Battalion 14th Field Artillery Regiment. Many years ago they were located in Garlstadt Germany.

OMG!!!!!! Must be time for the jerry can tool box again also.

From out of the blue, the guy in Trent, TX who I met nearly 3 years ago called me reference this truck. He delayed scrapping it for quite awhile to hopefully find someone to save it but now he says the time is coming very soon to sell it or scrap it. I have no connection, get no compensation...

I hope that this isn't another one of those "can I tow it with my pickup truck".....answer is not on the highway. You can move it, you just can't safely stop it at highway speed.

Its a requirement when transferred from govt to civilian habds . it must be 69. Everyone that does it thinks they are soooooo original.

Suggestions are to carry a locked box in the back with spare alternator, spare starter, spare glowplug card, spare relay, spare everything electrical, some food, some alcohol, a blow up doll to keep you happy, backup battery for your cell phone...... Welcome to the site. Virginia is a big...

I'm here local but it took 4 hours tonight just to open up the driveway to the secondary road....less than 1/8 th mile. Snow is every bit of mid thigh on me and most folks know I ain't that short. Dad said this is the worst individual snow storm he's had here in his area in 46 years. They...

ZeroH (get it 0H not OH) I can't believe he got away with that. Remember there ain't no O or I in registration numbers in the militar . Only 1 and 0. Now go choke and flog yourself about the head neck and shoulders.

That would be B compan . The rest would be a admin number that is kinda immaterial.

The official military way for IR was a simple on and off switch. As gimp said the ground is through the mount. I had some clear lens lights (they're identical except for the IR lens vs clear lens) and wanted to wire them on a 4 position switch but never found one. I wanted it so that it...

Welcome, I just moved from ELP area. AZ is a big state so not sure where you're at but 98G is in the Tucson area and is a great member to know, especially if you are looking at buying a truck or parts.

Based on whatvi saw today, its not a good day to be a contracted employee on a govt base today. They probably spent more than a few hours getting in the gate if they didn't have the right creds.

This question actually comes up probably about once every six months or so. If it was 20 or 30 miles on flat dry loads at low speed....I'd risk it and drive like a nun. Anything other than that, you already have the answer.

Most likely was the truck supporting the S-4(logistics officer) at the battalion HQ.

The sticky on the CUCV has the normal cross referenced items...belts, filters, etc. If we were to cross reference every part, we'd end up with something like this: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/upload/CUCV/TM9-2320-289-20P.pdf There is also a point that one of our former moderators...

Diff 80/90 is what I used. Oil definitely 15/40 coolant, yes never used fuel additives. Trans....can't remember

NO, NO!!!!! Don't buy one with over 100 (one hundred miles) on it. That's too many miles. It's actually more important about what unit the vehicle belonged to and what their command maintenance policy and supervision was. I had one unit that...as recently discussed... that was the worst...

A lot of the answers to these many questions are answered in the Technical Manual section of this website. For lubricants you would want to consult the LO (Lubrication Order). Normal grease is GAA (Grease Automotive Artillery). Additional websearch can probably find you some or something...

Now THAT would have been quite a nipplely thread (and so to say to 98G, a much more interesting thread even through this thread was good to know that he made it back safe).
