I haven't been there before as I always miss it. This year I'll be able to attend but only on Thursday. Are most of the sellers there on Thursday or should I just skip it?
M105A2s usually have 9.00 x 20 tires. They also have tubes so even if the tires are a little weathered still should be good. I recovered mine in NJ and brought a lot of the same items and only needed my 2 pound sledge to remove the side racks for better towing. Pulled it back to Cape Cod in an...
Good evening cwedge411,
Welcome from Cape Cod. There are a few of us on the south coast/Cape Cod area. I have a M923. There is a HEMTT, a M936 and others. "Vintage Iron" on here has a military vehicle repair shop. He is mostly on FB as "A & H Recon", his shops name. We are planning a convoy at...
Hey Luke, when in the Cape Cod area if you have any issues let me know as there are several of us on the Cape including "Vintage Iron" who has his own military truck repair business. Safe travels.
So when your F 150 can't handle the 1 sheet of plywood for your wife's plywood reindeer project that I need to cut out you just have to take the 5 ton to Home Depot for a nice Saturday morning drive!!
Good evening all. Next Sunday, Oct. 29, 2017 is the third annual MJT Memorial Truck Show. Last year there were in exces of 300 trucks of all shapes and sizes. We had over 15 military vehicles. Matt Handley, Vintage Iron on here, is coordinating the military guys part of the show. Starts at 8am...
Hey Actionhero, if it is the NHC250, as in 934 A1 or A0, check the fuel pick up tube in the tank, may be loose sucking air. Also check fuel tank vent. Make sure it is not plugged with stuff, wasp, mud dauber etc. Also check the large fuel filter for plugging or the washer under the bolt not...
Painted mine with brush and roller and used Behr Premium Ultra straight out of the can. Had to move the truck to the shade as it was drying too fast in the sun. Painter over 2 years ago and still looks pretty good. Some poorly prepped rust does show through.
Hey ndavis, first welcome to the madness! If you put air to it and still don't get fuel to the IP check the fuel tank pickup tube. Not sure about the 813 but the 939 series are know to have issues with the tube. My M923 was loosing prime overnight and when I pulled the fitting from the tank the...
I can tag onto General Mcgregor's video as I was the tail end of the convoy and Jeep Nasty was also there. My 1984 M923 was in pretty rough shape when I first saw her, no engine or transmission and the hood was in the bed. Installed an engine and trans out of a M936. Painted with Behr paint and...
One of these switches was installed in my M923 when I bought it about 2 years ago and was warned about the issues. I figured it I ran it for awhile with no problems that it would be ok. Well at the local 4th of July parade a month ago the lights starting flashing and I tried to shut them off...
