There's a JCB sales office across the street from where my deuce is stored. I'm gonna see if they want to trade!!

I am usually multi-tasking and, although I am a good typist (I do it for a living), I can get timed out too. Also I am an engineer and spelling is not one of my natural skills so I use Microsoft Word when things get long or complicated. Assuming that you have MS Word on your computer, here is...

Back in the day, there was a saying about backing an M105 "If you can't see the trailer you were OK." Never try to back one of these rigs without at least 1 spotter. Very true, also put the tailgate down.

I particularly like the chopped part. You do good photo chopping; you even got the power pole between the slats!

I didn't mean to entirely mislead you. An empty M105 trailer weighs 2700 lb. and does not require the brakes. I towed 2 of them (seperate trips) 95 mi. from Ft. Carson to Commerce City, east of Denver behind my '69 Bronco with no problem. Make sure that the reservoir tank is empty and the...

papabear, Armada, HAWKMAN, txdodge43man, Thanks for the honest feedback. I will pass it on to the owner. For my own reference, what would a complete and running M715 be worth? I know that those engines had problems; what is a running engine worth and how many M715 entheusiasts stick to the...

A lot of M109s seem to be non-turbo. The way you can tell from the GL photos is that the non-turbo engine has a longer rubber section coming out of the air filter canister and the turbo engine has a short one with a bulge. Photo 1: Non turbo, Photo 2 Non turbo, Photo 3 turbo, Photo 4 turbo

Jump in, the water's fine. I drove my M109 from Ft. Riley to Denver with what were minor incidents, but could have been major. Search threads for "advice" and M35. There's a lot of help available here. One thing that nobody told me and I don't hear much is Pump up the air tanks and drain...

Here is truck #3: There is no engine or radiator. The Willys parts are not included; I have already claimed them.

Here is Truck #2: "Ran when parked".

Three M715s found in a field north of Denver. They are available, $6000 for the whole lot, all or nothing. I just realized that I didn't count wheels and tires. I think that about half are missing. If someone is interested, I will take a better inventory. The extra tailgate goes with truck...

In the 15th CEB, '67-'69, we had 2 types of bridge trucks, one for pontoon bridges and one for Bailey bridges. Until an attack in the '68 Tet Offensive we had about 30. The problem was they were parked shoulder-to-shoulder and a mortar hit a fuel tank (mogas) and they started going up like...

I would like to have brakes, but don't see a way to do it within a budget. Some of the newer M101s and M116s have surge grakes. That would be ideal. There are a lot of them on the auction block in Wash. State right now, but, alas someone else will wind up owning them. With 1000 lb. pretty...

My daughter, who has a 4 yr. old, twin boys 2 yr. old and watches two more, loves her ride-on lawn mower. She has about a 1/2 acre to mow and says it’s her “quiet time” because the kids can’t come near her when she’s on it.

If that doesn't work for you, I scrapped out an M105 a year ago and kept the brake assemblies, including that cable. I have already given away some of the bolts for the brake lines. No hurry, it's just laying around. The last I checked I could mail it to you for $5.95. If anybody else needs...

I probably have one that you can have for the freight costs. PM me for details. Arlyn

Kaiser bought Jeep from Overland in '65. American Motors bought Jeep from Kaiser in '70 and began calling that division AM General. When American Motors went toes up AM General kept going right up to today. AM General builds the HMMWV with parts from several other manufacturers and also ran the...

What kind of bridge fits on one truck?

This is an Iraq vet. It served on the Serian border for a year with the Arkansas National Guard as an instrument repair truck. It is a '66 Kaiser Jeep non-turbo with an exhaust that comes out between the rear axles. First pic is leaving Ft. Riley Second in just after it arrived home to tick off...
