    Redi-Sleave - Transfer case output

    Devilman, I agree wholeheartedly with what you say, and I do have the ability to check NSN's and my collection of TM's, but sometimes, (when I am on a borrowed computer away from home) it is easier to just ask... Whereas the parts cross list here looks like it is primarily one for M35's, when...

    M38 Project...Done...

    Great looking project! I got my first M38 while hunting for a Mule (M274), and then got a second one (from Rod) for a buddy (he is working on my house, I am working on his ride...). Finally got a Mule this past fall... I really like my M38: the flatfender look with the 24 volt M series...

    Redi-Sleave - Transfer case output

    Thanks for the numbers, I'll be talking to my NAPA buddy this morning. :) I did check the cross reference list here, but I couldn't figure out what vehicle any of the parts (with the exception of one entry that was marked that it was for 6.2 CUCV engine) fit... I think that an additional...

    Redi-Sleave - Transfer case output

    Guys, I'm getting ready to swap out the parking brake drum on a 1983 M35A2C and was wondering if anyone knew the size/part number for a Redi-Sleave that would go on the transfer case output flange that is bolted to the brake drum? Based on prior experience swaping out similar components on...

    Brake drums

    I've got a friend who has a pair of M105 rolling chasis in his backyard in Monroe, NC... Not really that close to you, but they have been sitting in his yard for a few years (he wanted the bodies for other projects) and the price would be pretty good on them (he also isn't in a real rush to...

    Lots of Military Vehicles on GSA site in MO - ends Jan 15th

    I just had this discussion on the phone with a buddy last night who saw several items in the last couple months that he was stalking get advertised by somebody on the forum who lived in a different state... It's happened to me as well... I'm in full agreement with Bruce, Armada, and Kenny...

    Gear oil

    If you use a GL5 in an application where you are concerned about yellow metal, make sure that your GL5 is also rated MT1... The MT1 suplemental rating shows that it is yellow metal "friendly". Not all GL5 is, and if it is not marked, you have no way of knowing if it is or isn't. I have a...

    M101 finally gets the attention ....

    Must be some variation in the covers... The early solid green vinyl, and the canvas ones that I have don't quite touch the fenders. The measurments that I have on my website for the wood pieces came from the bows that were on one of my trailers when I purchased it (and matched the...

    Diesel in m37?

    OK, so you don't have to worry about getting a clutch and hooking up the transmission to the engine if you got a five speed with the engine. Is the five speed overdrive or direct (what is the ratio for the gears?)? Transmission that was mounted behind the engine should be plenty strong for a...

    My first Aberdeen!

    Re: RE: My first Aberdeen! Not a lot of requirements... You should have minor safety gear such as fire extinguisher and a first aid kit. Your vehicle should have functional lights and brakes with no major fuel, lube leaks, or known defects that would prevent you from attempting the trip...

    What trailer for a 530 fire truck

    Not used behind a 530C, but the local VFD used to have a M101 trailer that they outfitted with Indian tanks in racks along the outside edge of the bed sides, hand tools in a rack on the front of the bed and in a box mounted on the tongue, and a water tank and pump in the bed (couple hundred...

    Diesel in m37?

    RE: Diesel on m37? Sounds like a good one. Matching it to a transmission, fabricating mounts, plumbing it up (cooling, fuel, exhaust line routing) needs to be looked (roughly) before you get too deep (just make sure that everything looks like it will fit under the hood) and you shoudl be good...

    Newbie CB Radio Questions

    RE: Talk about a rookie! You are not the first person (nor likely the last) to be confused by that AB15 base... I have run a CB with the MX6707 base with the matching two part whip that I more regularly use with my PRC77 when it is in a vehicular mount. The MX6707 base is tunable, so you can...

    My first Aberdeen!

    I will be cooking with/for the NCMVPA/East Coast Convoy-Southern Serial folks who camp near me/drop by. Consider yourself invited to join us (we always cook way too much for every meal). My spots are three or four rows over from Bruce on the backside of the Yellow vendor section. Folks in...

    Newbie CB Radio Questions

    RE: Newbie Questions You have the unscrew the AB15 in order to insert it into the MP50 mounting hole, then when you screw the AB15 back together, it clamps itself onto the MP50 mount. Just grab the ceramic portion of the AB15 in your hands and twist it apart... I have a photo of one mounted on...

    M37 3rd member gasket

    Don't know the number off the top of my head, but it is the same as on the civilian WM300 so you can go to your local autoparts place and "pretend" that you have a 1968 WM300 for instance ... Or, for a much better price, just give AB Linn a call and have him send you a handfull... last time...

    Troop Seat NSN Question

    Saw a post on the www.dodgepowerwagon.com website forum from a guy with some new fiberglass troopseats and figured that somebody here could answer his question in a jiffy... so: The post from the other forum: "I got a pair of real nice looking troop seats (just the fold-down part, not the...

    M104 Pictures

    Looks like you found a good one to restore. Any shots of the front landing gear? My M104 is missing the landing gear and the side racks, so you are way ahead of me... I think that brings us up to three M104's for SS members... (PS: I know of three of them two hours from the house, but...
