It does ride smooth, and the 1100 XLs don't hurt either

There are empty cases that show up on eBay from time to time, should not be too hard to make it look good enough for a 10' inspection. When I say I am working on it, what that means is I am studying! The exam is a 35 question multiple guess, but the questions are drawn from a pool of over 300...

According to Carnac this truck did all it's duty stateside (Ft. Sam Houston, med school), no IED armor added. There IS a fire bottle mount on the driver side front fender, maybe it hauled fuel tanks?

I think this guy modded it to sell, to whom I do not know... ANY vehicle with a 5k towing cap can safely pull a stock M101A2... As for "Deuce Bubbagfication"... no comment

BTW: 49.75 is a commercial freq used by common store bought baby monitors, you can use the 77 on that freq and likely not interfere with other radio operators, you MAY freak out a Mom though... And you should get your HAM license, it's not that big a deal.

NO, the 77 only goes up to 70 something MHZ, you will need a different unit to go that high. If you want to fab one up you COULD get an empty 77 case and hide another radio in it, so it will do the job AND look the part.

One of the first things I noticed about my M35A2 was how thick the bed is. I just assumed they were all like that, but over the last two years of sometimes remembering to look at other ones, I have not seen another like it! Mine appears to be two pieces of 3/8" plate steel, all the others I have...

In the MilSurp firearm world there is a term for someone who gets hold of a fine piece of Military History and decides to "make it better": BUBBA. This is apparently what happens when Bubba gets his hands on a M101A2:

If I ever get the chance to find out with my own Deuce, I will NOT pass it up, that would be a blast! Bracket racing would be fun, I bet you would be the only one in that bracket. I once saw, at a VW meet in Houston, the finals of a bracket race. They ran the winners of the fastest and slowest...

Indeed!

You haulin' fuel or water? Those are water cans!

Yep, XLs, never seen them on a M105, that is sweet!

It does not look like a milkshake and there was no opalescence on the ground when I drained it. looks like watered down milk. This is a krappy cell phone photo I took after the coolant drained out and I was flushing it with the garden hose. It took a while to get the water to flow clear, I think...

The coolant in my Deuce has turned a milky green/white color. It tested good to -25, and felt like the correct viscosity, just went milky. It was bright and clear for the last two years, this is a new development, and YES my oil is still black. Any ideas?

Man that thing is SWEET! I have a craving for a foreign MV of some sort and that would do the trick:), you beat me to it, I will have to find something else for some variety in our area. Does she run and drive at the moment?

The wiring was sort of gimpy (no pun intended) so it has been cut, I will try to find a replacement, THANKS!

I saw one of those on eBay not too long ago and have been curious ever since, I can't wait to see yours! There are a lot of Veteran's Day events coming up, I hope you can join us.

I lost the in tank pump on my M109, so I bought a rebuilt one from a friend. When I went to install it today I discovered that it is the wrong unit! I LOOKS like a Multifuel in tank pump, but the wiring is different. The old pump is hard wired into the top of the unit, the new one has a bayonet...

Welcome aboard! We would love to have you in the local club of like minded individuals! Our next event is the Cars N Coffee show in Leander on Sunday 31 October, we would love to see you there.

I too would like a M105A3 jack. Mine came with one but they are so handy I want one for my M101 camper project, I could use a Hi-lift but that is not "milspec":)
