Correction… @kendelrio doesn’t need to win. I’m in it to win it!!! It’s on like Donkey Kong buddy!

Awe… peer pressure… lol Who’s next???

Post that awesome 5 Ton up now to get in the running this month and save the “couple of things” for the campaign thread… just my two cents (which after inflation still won’t get you a cup of coffee at Starbucks)

Alright, let’s kick this off with a Deuce!

I didn’t know that the CDN trucks were made to be adjustable. A friend of mine here in the Houston area modified his cargo cover to be adjustable. He drilled holes in the troop seat posts just above the bed. When he wants more head room under the cargo cover (usually for parades or camping)...

If Ric can ride a mechanical bull… I’m sure he won’t have a problem wearing tights and riding the bat bike.

Swap? Do you know anyone with a HEMTT? rofl I’ll give you a shout.

Wholly bat sh$t, Miles! That Jeep came out great!

Howdy from just north of Houston. Welcome to the site!

I ask dumb questions from time to time…. What do you intend to use the landing maps for?

My understanding is that DOT 3 fluid can attract/trap moisture causing corrosion on the inside of the hard break lines hence a preference for DOT 5 fluid.

That wouldn’t surprise me. Here’s the part number. I haven’t looked it up yet.

GL is Government Liquidation. They lost the surplus auction contract to GovPlanet a while back.

Thank you! I searched for HEMTT cargo covers. Based on pictures from Eastern Surplus’ website, it appears that I have the uprights and bows intended for a MK48. https://www.easternsurplus.net/PartDetails/2477/Oshkosh-HEMTT-Cargo-Cover-Kit @country thank you for the pictures!

I thought about cutting the uprights down to fit but figured I should try to identify them first. I didn’t want to cut something that may be useful to others (especially if it’s rare).

I was told that these uprights and bows were for a Deuce when I acquired them. But after trying them yesterday, I now think otherwise. What are these uprights and bows intended for? The uprights are metal and measure 55” from the bottom to the bow. This causes the cargo cover to sit about 12”...

My logic: When one truck needs a jump or tow, I can’t afford not to have two…

I’ve managed to go my whole life without a Deuce cargo cover and, somehow, I acquired two in the same week. I got the Deuce out today to test fit the covers. They both fit nicely, except that my uprights are about 12” too long. So does this mean that my truck is a cross dresser?

Had to get the M936 out to jump start the Deuce. It’s just another reason why we collectors need to have more than one MV! This job took every inch of my 20’ slave cable.

Hi Ken. Are you asking about Wes’ quick reference spreadsheet? https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/5-ton-parts-quick-reference-spreadsheet.82404/
