Under mine looks like Chevy through and through. Finding parts for this thing shouldn't be a problem at all...

I suspect that the same engineer was involved…wasn't that much later that the hummer design was introduced!

Which are you referring to Steve?

Funny you should say that, I've always felt this truck has a seriously strong resemblance to the hummer front end...

Great story. Appreciate you sharing it. I got lucky with my M1009 find - the CL advert stated a located of Wilmington DE - about a 3 hour drive for me. When I called the number, he was literally 15 minutes away. :lol:

Bam. That did it for me. Replaced alternator with new unit from Amazon. Everything good...

Thanks much for all the information. I'm sure this thread will help people in the future as much as it's helped me. Got one coming from Ebay.

Ok, thanks. I'll get another. They're not that expensive for NOS...

The filter base is leaking in the hole I described. I may have incorrectly used the word 'heater' in this case.

This thread needs a photo or two. My fuel filter holder / fuel heater developed a leak which is atomizing diesel all over the engine compartment. I'm not quite sure what parts go where as described in this thread but I'm under the impression it's repairable. I've attached a photo of the point...

Sure. My problem is everything I do results in the Taj Mahal. I thought some creative ideas shown by others would give my brain a break! Definitely versatile...

Thanks Steve. I'll have another look. It's amazing how many results have nothing to do with whatever you search…..but I'll give it a go again. These trailers aren't worth much so it's probably best to just keep it and have it on tap. The tires are like-new and it's solid. If I decide...

My M116A2. No idea what to do with it. Has anyone built sides on one? Sources for canvas tops? Help?

Haha….got that right! It's like sitting on the floor in there! But strangely it works….

It would, but we're quite a ways away from each other! So I get this email from a friend that says, "There's a guy in my neighborhood with a truck like that." Whaaaaat!? So here's what he found….a restored M715. Pretty observant guy for not being into military vehicles at all…. Hoping to...

Basic Meyer system installed. Power to the pump from the front battery.

So it's home now. Sprayed the dust off, but by no means have really cleaned it up. What next? I'll put a couple batteries in it, clean fuel supply, dump and fill the oil. See what she does. That hood sure looks like a predecessor to the HMMWV hood. Looking out over it from the driver's...

Hey - you know what? It's a 307. I got that wrong!! Sooo…..maybe I should put a 6.2 diesel in it!? :-P

Hey Mike! I have absolutely no idea what I'm going to do. I'll start with some batteries, new fuel and oil, maybe an engine oil filter (spec said it's 2 quarts capacity!). Anyway, I'll get it to the werks and figure it out. Come on over. We'll have lunch too - on me!

Thanks! It's quite unique. One thing that I noticed was the strange sort of….err….resemblance to the HMMWV. I was walking around it today thinking that someone might have been involved in the design of both. Do a full body 4-door version of the XM705 and guess what that'll look like….only a...
