    Surplus HMMWV's? Anywhere?

    Your source was right. The Marines did release a few several years ago. It is highly unlikely you'll ever see any more released from the government whole.

    Just a question - why is editing allowed in some forums, but not others?

    Is there a way to extend the 90 window for the classifieds only? The springs are still for sale so I don't want the add deleted but if they do sell I'll have to get Ron to delete it for me. It really makes me no difference but the rules state that the add needs to be deleted as soon as the item...

    Just a question - why is editing allowed in some forums, but not others?

    Here, I'll try a screenshot of what I'm talking about.

    Just a question - why is editing allowed in some forums, but not others?

    Patracy, those boxes you have highlighted aren't available in my adds that were brought over from the old site.

    Just a question - why is editing allowed in some forums, but not others?

    I was one of them. There was no "edit" button or "administration" button or anything available in the first post. I've got active adds right now that I can't delete. The items are still for sale so I don't want them deleted but I've looked to see if I could and I can't. The adds I've placed...

    Where to get paint

    Did you speak to the Nashville automotive store? I have in the past and when I mentioned CARC they didn't know what I was talking about. I first talked to the industrial store and they told me to call the automotive store. When I called the automotive store they told me to call the industrial...

    Grease type?

    You should be able to get to them. If the shaft was assembled right, you will be able to turn it and all the fittings will face down at the same time. Put the trans and t-case both in neutral and you can spin the shaft by hand. I've seen some grease gun ends (I don't know the proper term) that...

    What's a good price for a 205?

    If you look around you can find a 205 for a couple of hundred bucks. Some people think they are worth gold and they may be selling them at those prices but they can be found much cheaper. Personally, I wouldn't give over $300 for a 205. The last 205 I picked up was a divorced model I picked up...

    Transfer case air shift hi lo

    Ron, I agree that you won't find out how to "split shift" in the TMs. It does help that they put syncros in the t-case though which lends itself to a pretty smooth split shift. I split shift all the time and don't think it hurts a thing if done properly and not forced into gear when things...

    Found pieces of metal in tansfercase, it's a shame because i was going to sell it

    I'd buy that truck in the condition it's in but nowhere near $5,000. IMO it would be worth about half that, at most, in the condition it's in.

    best diesel engine to swap into early-model CJ5?

    Kubota and Perkins both have several good engines that will fit in a CJ5. Personally, I'd go with a Perkins. Those little engines are everywhere, are dirt cheap, and the parts are dirt cheap.

    m920 24 volt delete

    You're not going to like the starting on 12v. I have to ask, why? :confused: I'm not familiar with the truck in question but I'd say that clicking you hear is a 24v relay trying to operate on 12v.

    Hydraulic Conversion of PTO Winch

    As I said in a previous post, a stock A3 winch setup won't work with a stock A2 radiator. Also, A3 parts are kind of scarce and are expensive. If you want a hyd winch, I'd think it would be easier to use the A3 setup as a guide but source all the parts aftermarket. If you have any welding...

    Grease type?

    As juanprado has said, about any name brand tube grease will work fine. I personally use NAPA wheel bearing and chassis grease. Mainly just because I'm in NAPA several times a week and it's handy.

    Deuce heater box install

    There are two main reasons I don't have a heater in my deuce. 1) If mounted in the stock location it makes it a pain to service that side of the engine and most of the service items are on that side (fuel filters, oil filters, IP). 2) I haven't took the time to make up a in-cab install.

    Search function inside your posts and subscriptions

    You can search just the classifieds in the advanced search. It gives you the option to just search a specific forum. At least you could on the old site, I haven't checked the new site but I think the search works the same.

    I looking for winch parts m35a2

    I've got a set of seals listed in the classifieds. I usually make the gaskets myself out of gasket material that can be had at any auto parts store. I'm sure some of the major suppliers would have them but I can make them cheaper than I can have them shipped. Probably the best way to find the...

    Deuce heater box install

    Corey, the circuit breaker is in the first pic. You have the breaker, low/high/off switch, and resistor. The breaker was mounted on the firewall in the engine compartment as Jonathan posted. The resistor was also mounted on the firewall but on the inside of the cab. The other loose wire goes to...

    Upgrade complete

    I also just placed a classified add and noticed I left some info out. When I tried to edit I get "database error".

    Upgrade complete

    Has anybody uploaded a pic yet? I pulled up pics when I clicked "manage attachments" that I didn't even know I had on my computer. I finally figured it out but it sure is different. Like others, I don't handle change well but I'll get used to it and try not to complain.
