How can you tell the difference between the MRAP wheel and the HEMTT wheel?

FTF (use to be a company in Southern California about 7 years ago) was putting those on the Deuces they sold. That’s where I got mine.

I have 6 of those on my Deuce. Where did you see that one?

Howdy, from just north of Houston. I’m sure help will be along shortly to answer your question. In the mean time, welcome to the site. Guessing by your truck, you are in Krum (near Denton?). You are not far from SS member Fuzzytoaster. He’s a good guy and great source for knowledge and parts!

A starter and alternator shop near me was able to rebuild a Deuce alternator for $80. Good luck with the compressor.

That's a new one on me too!

Yeah, I'm still drooling from the pictures in your other thread. Glad to hear that she started running better by the time you got home. Let us know how your truck does with new filters and fluid.

Yes, what they said above. Also, how long has your truck been sitting? My first Deuce sat in private hands for 2.5 years after sitting in Uncle Sam’s possession for who knows how long. When I got it, she was a dog! Once I got it, I drove it regularly. In less than a year of driving, there...

M35fan - She looks perfect to me!

@jeffhuey1n that was a well written response and makes perfect sense. Thank you! I just learned something new!

Sir, what do you mean by, “rig the flight controls of a helicopter”?

An M105..... :drool: Good luck Tracer!

Looks great Tracer!

Sir, I do believe that’s it! Thank you. Here is a close-up of the seat from Cockpit 360

plowboy - You got me thinking. I made an assumption about the seat’s orientation when I took pictures of it. What if I was wrong. What if the seat went in the cockpit like this >>> This is the upright position you expected. Also, there would be room for a parachute. It doesn’t surprise me...

plowboy - Thank you for looking into this and for the feedback! Here are pictures of the bottom. Here are some pictures that show how deep the pan is.

I did a few google searches before starting this post as did my friend who gave me the seat. Neither one of us found an exact match. That’s when I turned to the collective wisdom of the SS group.

Don’t leave us hanging... what’s the date code?

Hopefully someone here has information on the seat. To widen the search, I just sent an email to the Commemorative Air Force. It would be neat to see this seat back in a plane and being used!

No, which I find strange. I didn’t see one yesterday and I just went out for a second look. There are no stamps or writing on the seat. There is a rectangular section on the back of the seat where a data tag may have been. However, there are no holes (for rivets or screws) and no indication...
