    M1009 towing M101A2 trailer

    Yes, it has the surge brake, that's about all I carry in my trailer is camping gear. The M1009 has stock suspension, tires etc. Glad I could help, I thought a picture would be worth the effort so you could see my results. Also since you are new to the sight and might not know, if you click on...

    M1009 towing M101A2 trailer

    I had the same issue with my M1009/trailer so I went the low profile tire route and stayed with the original rims. I braved the Maine cold at lunch time and hooked up to the trailer so you could see how level it is. It tows just fine, just don't go crazy with the weight in the trailer and you...

    Steel Soldiers MV of the YEAR 2017 - VOTE HERE!

    Thank you Steel Soldiers for the support, very much appreciated. This Gama Goat was de milled, rather cruelly by Uncle Sam in the early 90's, purchased and left for dead in the woods for 14 years before I rescued it. I think most people would have passed or perhaps thought of it as a parts...

    Need Help Id Antenna model/Type ?

    Looks cool but in the real world the performance is crap, look at the SWR and gain, these wide band antennas are always a compromise.

    Part number for the correct thermostat for a 6.2 motor? Thanks in advance.

    Don't mess around with after market thermostats, from the parts stores, china junk. I just went through the same issues, get a real one made from all metal. A guy on ebay is selling original new USGI thermostats, just type that part number in the search and it will pop up, he is from NY, good...

    Operation "URGENT RESTORATION"

    NSN 5330-00-080-0277 P/N 11595527, I tried the usual suppliers and found none. I got mine in a lot of winch parts on ebay. My thought if I did not find one was to try and find a oil seal with the correct dimensions. You would need the ID of the 3" boss welded to the hull and the OD of the...

    Operation "URGENT RESTORATION"

    The snow, cold and Ice have taken a good hold here in Maine, goat activities for the winter have come to a halt. Did finish painting the chain/hook assembly and cable clevis. Still need to order the wire rope and finish the console for the pto handle.
