    CUCV issues

    Try to find something that is still running the stock 24v setup. If your truck is stock and something goes wrong you can get help from the TMs or many of the guys from the site. If you have a 12v conversion or some bubba electrical modifications you will be on your own. Just my two cents worth.

    New from Mass.

    Welcome to the site. You have my next Jeep! I have flatty fever right now but the finances are not in order to get one. You should post some pictures of your toys.

    Diamond T M20 Prime Mover

    Well I knew my theory had a few holes in it because my M38A1 was built right across the state line in Toledo.

    New m1008 owner w/ out a clue!

    A stick in a CUCV will be awesome. That is one of the reasons I sold my '09, driving an automatic is just no fun.

    Diamond T M20 Prime Mover

    I love those old Diamonds. They are some of the best looking MVs and they were made in Lansing, MI. The best cars have always been made in the smitten mitten.

    Volvo Sugga Restoration underway

    Ah, I see. Well you can't go wrong with a BFG AT. That is my favorite tire of all time. My F150 will be getting a set for next winter. I had a little bit of sticker shock when I went from a 15" rim on my old truck to a 17" on my new one, double the price for the same size tire. Now that you...

    Venison recovery vehicle

    My neighbor and her kids were on their patio watching it. They may have suspected me (the only guy in the neighborhood that wears camouflage and drives MVs) if bambis was shot.

    Venison recovery vehicle

    That is not a bad looking buck. I wish I had some venison in my freezer already. I have a 12 point buck in my neighborhood that is fatter than anything I have ever seen on TV but you are not allowed to hunt in my city :( . Last year he was bedded down in my back yard, during rifle season, and...

    M105a3 Sleeping Corridor

    Although if people have been heavily drinking than you will want to keep the trailer even warmer. The reason a drunk person had a higher BTU output is because they have a higher level of heat loss. Alcohol directly inhibits a hormone which i necessary to constrict blood vessels. Your body uses...

    Finally got an M1009

    When it comes time for me to covert my M38A1 back to 24v, tell you dad that I have a 12 pack with his name on it.

    What to buy? Looking to get a tractor...

    I know you can put a king pin on a M36 to make what is pretty much a light duty M818, I saw one for sale in Florida this spring. I would just get an 818; they are plentiful, require no modification, and are not that much bigger than a deuce.

    Finally got an M1009

    Congrats. The body looks pretty solid and straight, your must have been one of the few to escape the GL forklifts.

    Volvo Sugga Restoration underway

    What a difference paint can make, eh? It is looking really nice. Do you have it all put back together yet? I read through this whole thread without noticing that you were from across the pond but your spelling of tires gave you away. Good luck with the rest of the resto and those are some nice...

    M105a3 Sleeping Corridor

    Looks like it will be pretty cool. When I see stuff like this it makes me realize that I really need to learn how to weld.

    Off Grid

    That is an impressive truck. Rather than towing a M105 to protect your batteries you should get yourself a 105mm Howitzer. People will think twice about tailgating you when they are staring down the barrel of an artillery piece.
