Welcome to the forum. I went to high school in League City, TX (near Houston). I miss Texas but Alabama is my home. That's a nice looking truck! Enjoy the site, there's a lot of good folks here.

That's a nice looking trailer. Welcome to the site.

I guess just owning a deuce 1/2 period was my dream. Livin the dream :D

Thanks for asking this question, Ray. I'm thinking of swapping all of mine to 11x20s when it's time. Will an 11 fit on the stock spare tire holder?

Welcome to the forum, from Marshall co. Us AL members are popping out of the woodwork. There is a wealth of information here, and some great people. Again, welcome.

I followed a post by SEToyota that detailed how to fab your own bracket and install a Delco 21si. I ordered one and installed it. Easy swap and it is working great so far. https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/modern-24-volt-alternator-install.177577/

I slacked off on posting due to the Global Craziness. Hope yall are all safe and well. I got a chance to give my Deuce some love during my week off last week. Turns out my generator is toast as it showed 0 volts on my meter. I followed Setoyota's post and installed a 21si alternator in it's...

Welcome to the site, and congratulations on your new ride! That's a really nice looking HMMWV.

I'm in Arab, just south of Huntsville

I won't mention the seat, but please don't type 'bathroom renovations' so loud. My wife will get ideas.

I appreciate the good advice, and I will take it to heart. Part of my duties at work include maintenance and repair of a fleet of bucket/digger trucks for a power company. I'm no stranger to grease. I hope to have my Deuce for a very long time, and I plan to keep it as original as possible. I am...

Fortunately for me, a previous owner already installed a spring seat on the passenger side of mine. It is more comfortable but limits the number of passengers to one. I want to come up with a middle seat somehow, perhaps a jump seat of some kind. Having spousal approval makes a huge difference.

Nice truck! Congratulations!

Took the new Deuce on a nice slow Sunday drive today. It met the approval of my wife and kids, with a big thumbs up from my 6 year old son. I found a loose (burned) wire on the generator and reattached it. Strangely the voltmeter never left the green. I will have to investigate further. So far...

Thanks, all for the positive comments. I'm looking forward to "getting to know" my new truck and how to give this old soldier the respect it deserves. I will post updates and more pictures soon.

Finally got me one! Its a 1972 M35A2. Needs some TLC but she's all mine.

Would I need a CDL to drive it? Would triple overdrive get the mileage up to 3mpg? Seriously, though.. what did the Air Force haul with that beast? Its awesome!

Welcome to the forum, from Alabama. Good luck with getting your truck running, I'm sure there are many here who can offer some great advice.

Welcome to the forum. This is just a stab in the dark, but could it be vacuum related?
