    AVM vs Ouverson: take a closer look!

    RE: Re: RE: AVM hubs Great side-by-side comparison pics Gerhard. I really appreciate the detail at which you analyze things. Maybe either style of hub is dependable and works, but I would have a hard time putting something that says 4x4 on my 6x6 deuce! Now if I bobbed it, well, that is a...

    new owner M1009

    Congrats on the M1009. The first thing I would do is download the CUCV technical manuals here from the site. That will cover most everything. I would also search the site here for information regarding the glow plug system and the starter relay. Those are common failures on the CUCVs.

    NO Air Out for tools

    Yep, the Service line (yellow or blue) uses air to activate the service brakes on the trailer when the brake pedal or trolley valve is activated. The Emergency line (red) is a constant air supply used to keep the trailer tanks charged. A loss of air on the emergency line (trailer gets...

    1600x20 question for M818 Rodney in WI off Ebay

    There are two types of HEMTT wheels, split ring and bolt together. Either will work, although the split ring is the closest offset to the M939 series bolt together rims. The bolt together wheels are much thicker plate (2 of them) and you will not get a full seat on your front lug nuts unless...

    Weight plate designation

    Well, I guess if I saw that sign, I would have to wait for one way traffic. My M1009 would be just under the 70 ton limit.

    Rally Pictures - AR OK MO TX KS D-DAY Spring 2008

    I had a great time with these guys. The DDay park was a great choice and the weather was perfect. About 70s and sunny in the day and cool enough for a big campfire at night. Here are a couple of photos I took. Do any of these change your perception about Oklahoma?

    Jumping procedure on M1009?

    The CUCVs, like most military vehicles, have a 24V system. It is best to jump a 24V truck with another 24V truck. Using the military slave cables makes it easy. Try the search tool on the site for a lot of good information that will help you get this truck up and running. If it were me, I...

    Anyone in need of a Towbar?

    Looks like you might be better off putting those on ebay. Not really suitable for MV use.

    Looking for a M270 or M172 style trailer

    Why the M270? I think you are going to be much better suited with an M172. Well built, lower to the ground, and a dovetail to boot. The ramps are VERY heavy though. Also overwidth in stock form. Check around on GL. I see them on there all the time. I have always loved this pic.

    Big cam III in a 5ton?

    RE: engine swap questions What application do you plan on using your M813 for? A different truck might suit your needs better and already be equipped with sufficient power.

    Who can help me ID this trailer?

    RE: Re: RE: Who can help me ID this trailer? Definitely not the M172A1.

    818 and 813 frame ???

    The M813 frame is longer. You could easily remove the bed and add the fifth wheel to an M813. No problems.
