    M275 A2 tractor value

    Is it a gasser? I did not know the deuces came with gas engines. If so what engine is in it? Hopefully not the big beast in my M52. I am hoping to come by an affordable M818 that can really haul the loaded M127. I would think twice about another gasser in my fleet.

    disk brake conversions parts

    I think the duece brakes are fine as is. I can stop any of the trailers I own with the truck even when both the truck and trailer are loaded. Anyone who does a lot of mud and does not do a good wash down soon after is asking for trouble. I like the idea of disc brakes on a light truck or...

    Back in the club!

    That truck looks great! I bid on mine sight unseen but the GL pictures back then used to show the tachometer showing RPM's Mine did and that convinced me to drive it home. The good thing is you all are getting dueces for the same price or less that I got mine for a long time ago and back then...

    What I did win today in GL3175

    If you don't mind technology I recommend using seat covers from Marathon in Montana http://www.marathonseatcovers.com/camo/camo-seat-covers.php I have them in our M1009 and in my Suburban. The ones in my Suburban are 7 years old and they are in great shape tough as nails and custom made

    Front bumper step kit for M35

    My Step came off of a truck at TNJ Murry as I bought as many things as I could use when I went up last year for a PTO and shaft for the M52. It is like Candyland there and the guys are right as rain about prices and what you can get from them. I like the way they fold up and lock into that...

    Deuce Guntruck

    I built a mock up in plywood on one of our deuces when I was a lieutenant. It had sloping sides, gun loops and a protected turret for the M2 gunner made from the ring mount and a steel support bolted to the deck. It was really cool looking and too bad that was before digital pictures but it...

    Oil Bypass Filter for M35 and other...

    What model did you get I see they have a variety based on oil capacity of the engine? It looks like the duece would need at least a model 24 or larger. Is that price shipped to a stateside zip code and what do replacement filters cost? I have been looking at old truck junk yards for a...

    Trailer Disappeared on GL after bid confirmation

    It really upset me because I had a confirmed bid on it and I got nothing from them in return after the confirmed bid email. So much for entering into a contract. My email stated that since I had a bid confirmation and no other outbid or withdrawn email from them I expected to be awarded the...

    Trailer Disappeared on GL after bid confirmation

    Here is their reply that finally arrived about this. Dear Customer: Thank you for your email. If a lot was previously listed on the www.govliquidation.com website, but is no longer there, than the lot was removed from that particular event. Some common reasons for removing lots from an event...

    My HERD of trucks made it home!

    RE: your wish is my command Unless you are getting transfered to a LORAN station in Bermuda, keep two and do a Diti move. I have moved many times in the Army and all but the first I have done myself and the Army paid me to move my family. Get the trucks weighed and then load them up and drive...

    pics of trailer pu @ Ft Dix

    Nick: Great haul and nice pictures. I use similar ramps all the time the only problem with wood is that it bends so much I have had the lower boards pull apart from the main ramp. I was loading a truck and it weighed more than the trailer but it pulled it apart even with glue and 3 1/2 inch...
