    Military Vehicle gathering for veterans organization in need

    dblcamaros, I go to Gilbert every year with a vehicle and an MKT in tow. Have a real interest in helping Veterans, since I am one myself. I will start talking this up around my area and with some of the people that usually go to Gilbert together. See what I can come up with. Good luck. John

    Tour of Eastern Europe

    Duncan, Give you guys a lot of credit, ballsy trip. Glad you made it home safely with only slight problems. Great pics and nice trucks, trip of a lifetime. Most people on this site would not make that trip with their "Trailer Queens". Hats off to you. John

    MKT 90 FIELD KITCHEN finds a Sucker to take her home!!!!

    I totally agree, do as you wish, but the original equipment in the upgraded MKT's are awesome and so easy to use. The power converters work great and are reliable, as are the MBU's. The Version 3 equipment works best if you can get it, but the older MBU100's work great too, especially under...

    MKT 90 FIELD KITCHEN finds a Sucker to take her home!!!!

    I know someone on here has converted to propane? Not sure how it turned out, did not follow thread. I have seen wet sinks, for field use but I think they my be medical gear? Good luck with your trailer. John

    Working on the MKT

    mkcoen, I just came in from working on my old MKT 85. Going to give it the best cleaning I can with my power washer. Brutal day in North Jersey today, almost 96, but humid as ****, feels like is over a 100. Your trailer is looking good, nice to find MBU's with so little time on the clock...

    Welcome, to an awesome hobby. I also have a nice Deuce for sale, titled in NJ. D Turbo Hercules Multifuel, runs and drives nice. Needs nothing but some cosmetic paint work. I have started the job, do not have time to finish it. Commanding General will not allow me to keep this old girl, she...

    Working on the MKT

    Guys, Not 100% sure, but those latches look like the older style. Then newer ones are the "Z" latches. Nice trailer though, good luck with it. Sounds like you can get MBU's cheaper out there, than on the East Coast. Good luck. John

    Working on the MKT

    mkcohen, Welcome back. I was looking at that unit, You got a good deal on that one. If that was on the East Coast, it would have cost someone 3 times as much. Congrats! John

    USMC 5 Tons

    USMC 900 Series Trucks A couple of buddies of mine have owned 900 series trucks. All have had lockers in the rear, with a tag on the bottom edge of the drivers door. 2 of them had the ISO bed with the davit in the bed. Also they may have a bent piece of rebar on both sides of the front...

    year of manufacture of a M923

    You should see a # that starts with C523 and I think it should have 9 total digits? Guys correct me if I am wrong. The serial # on the Data Plate inside the cab on the Passenger side should be your VIN #. But that same C523 number should also be on the frame of the truck. Located on the...

    M929. what the heck is going on with the prices?

    Fixx, Find a M929 that is a salvage truck and has a bed. See if you can get that cheaper, fit the dump bed to one of your M925's, and you now have your dump truck. Have I ever done this, no never. But it cannot be that hard to do, besides it will give something to do, another project! John

    Looking at a M923A2

    Like Clint said, "Well p**k, do you feel lucky. Well do ya." Something like that, anyways, you are crazy if you do not go and preview the truck. You are rolling the dice without checking it out or having someone do it for you. Lots of people on this site have gotten burned in this way. Good...

    Sussex NJ MV Show

    Vintage Iron, Just set up your air mattress/cott, waterbed, whatever, in the back of the truck. Leave it parked with the rest of the trucks. My recommedation is to bring a long extension cord and strategically park near power. So you plug in a little space heater or electric blanket and you...

    Anyone have a head gasket "weep" on their Deuce?

    2003H1, You would have much shorter list asking who's Duece didn't leak a little oil from the head gasket. Most of the 2 1/2 tons do. Once you replace the head gasket with the most current set, she will not leak and run much better. Make sure to have the head magnafluxed and milled, prior...
