    I think swbradley1 would approve of the hissing booth.

    1985 CUCV M1009 "The Colonel"

    Ditto to all Kenny said. Nice M1009. Start checking the glowplug circuit. If that checks out, the quick and dirty way to check the IP is to hose it down with cold water for a few minutes. Kenny also wants a M1009 BTW. :mrgreen:

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    It happened. Even more happened than the pics, but I violated a rule by posting it. Didn't make the rule, but I have to abide by them.

    Edit, I had some really cool pictures here in the thread. Oh well.

    Think before saying an "easy search" or "look in a Tm".

    If you're not going to help someone else, there's no need to even comment. Help is something more than "read the TM's".

    It's just a trailer? I think Ron would be heading basically south, and Adam is out east of Durhamtown and would be heading west. What's a cutvee?

    GOV Planet Tax issues

    I never heard back from jwade on my tax issue, but I emailed that address mentioned. I got an auto reply about it so far. I'm not going to loose sleep over my issue, it was less than $50. So however long it takes is ok. For those who have had a refund, how is that handled? A refund to the...

    Pics of pulling and rebuilding transfer case of M923a2

    I don't think anything is easy in a 5 ton.

    Anyone know the weight of a fully dressed 8.3L?

    Depends on where it's going. I'd put a 5.9 in a deuce all day long. 8.3 of course would be a natural fit in the 939 series. But a repower in a M54 or variant with a 5.9 would be acceptable in my book as well. (Engine bay) M809 probably would lend better to the 8.3.

    I'd also like a HMMWV airlift bumper and spare mount.

    12" rim machining

    Pretty sure I could do it in my mill with the rotary table. But like others said, liability.

    M1082

    Just remove the t bolts on the cans and dust covers, install the bolt in the opening and twist it into the pocket. Then tighten the nut until the brakes are free. As to the tag questions, you'll need to check with the states involved.

    M1082

    You'd use the cage bolts in the pots to cage them. Hopefully they're still there. I can get a pic if you need. If you're pulling one with a deuce, don't cage the brakes, just hook them up.

    2016 Ga Military Vehicle Rally buy/sell/trade thread

    I'd imagine the two are different. But I'll take it anyhow. I might re-purpose it.

    2016 Ga Military Vehicle Rally buy/sell/trade thread

    I don't have much of anything to bring this year. I might however have some non vehicle wares for display/operation. I'm looking for M114 parts as usual.

    CUCVs on base. How many left?

    I thought I saw one on Dobbins AFB a week or two ago. But I can't say that for certain. I did however see a M35A2 out there.

    I can get a pic of it if someone doesn't have one handy this weekend or so. I'll throw a tape on it too.
