Folks, The winch on my M275A2 is off a 1953 M35 and as such it has a brass data plate. Since installing a new OD Iron top channel, I need to reinstall the data plates. What is a fair way to de-tarnish the data plate without hitting it with abrasives. Don't want it polished, just cleaned up a...

Folks, I'm trying to be a comm hub for folks in the convoy. Here's what I know so far. The green serial is pressing on just outside of Kirkersville. They have the M37 running in front at around 40MPH. Westech got held up in Chi-town for 3 hours and is 50 miles north of Dayton on I75. He's going...

OK folks, I got one of the replacement winch plates from OD Iron a while back. I painted it the other day and finally took the time to install it today. The old one was quite bent and didn't want the bolts to spin out easily. Luckily I had the air and impact right there. So for about 90 seconds...

Well, today the big light came on in my head. I have one of the repro winch top channels from OD Iron and have needed to paint and install it. I've been avoiding opening a gallon of paint just to paint that part. Thats when the light came on and I realized I had a quart of 34094 that was...

Well, some things have come up here at the house with family, school, schedules and the like and I won't be able to make the trip. I'm going to try to send PMs to everyone that I had made arrangements with as far as picking up/ delivering parts. I think Devilman is going to be the maddest but I...

Well, today I pulled all 8 tires off the back of the deuce tractoo only to find 3 of 4 had gear oil leaking from the drum. All 3 were broken down and received a thorough scouring. Drums also got the wash rack. The brake shoes were given 3 diferent showers with brakleen as well. Also sprayed out...

Folks, I spoke with the people at Army Jeep Parts the other day. George Baxter will be there and can bring Gillespie paint if you preorder it. Great way around the hazmat fees and preordering guarantees it will be there when you get there. I'm ordering some.

Folks, if anyone out there has a lead on quarter fenders for a deuce tractor, please speak up. These are the little fenders in front of the fore rear axle. See Pic.

Well folks, a few weeks ago I bought one of the Harbor Freight 1" impacts. It was on sale for a C note and I figured what the heck. I have a 7 gallon air tank that I used to use to fill tires and the such. It so happens that the fitting is in 1/2". I took the valve assy off the tank and...

Is anyone else experiencing problems with the TM section. Seems that the TMs can't be opened by left clicking on them. You can right click them and "save target as". Anyone else find this?

Well, as some of you may remember, when I repowered the M108 last Feb I replaced the master cylinder with a new one. Well, several months back the brakes started going away.I checked the fluid level and it was down so I filled it up and bled the system with my homebrewed power bleeder. As I was...

Well, thought I got a real good deal on an M107 water buffalo, now I'm not so sure! Here's the deal. Wayne Harris alerted me to a water buffalo on GSA just 60 miles away. I checked it out and bid on it. I won the trailer for $126. Great so far even if it's only in marginal conditional. Today I...

Anyone have an extra bed? Anyone mind taking a few pics of the bed mounting on their M36 or M36A2? Comparing mounting with the M4 body of my M447C. Considering removal of the M4 van body and putting an M36 bed on the chassis.

If you have a deuce or 5 ton wrecker, please participate in this pole. I'm curious as to how many wreckers there are among us. Yes Rizzo, you can input twice as well as anyone else with multiple wreckers.

Does anyone have the correct part number for deuce Selectro hubs?

1) The military tranny hoist doesn't work that good. Actually not at all. 2) Just because you can jamb from 4th to 5th without a grind doesn't mean you should. 3) Short come-a-longs are much better if you use the "Across the cab" method. 4)Setting up the PTO on the ground works really good...

I kinda knew who would win this battle but tried anyway. Stump 1, deuce 0.

And you folks think I'm nuts for moving a deuce with a 1 ton crew cab. http://imageevent.com/wharris19/militarytrucks/militarytrailers/gentr?p=3&w=3&z=2
