RE: weird military trailer for sale in No. VA $275 - not min
Too high a price, Solid Tires and he owns another military trailer?????
I got my M105 with two tarps and bows for $100
When you talk of going through the right door are you removing panels or what has to come off? I am thinking a transmission jack would work if it had the reach wouldn't it? I hope my clutch stays good for some time. It held good towing the dolly and M 127
Solarizer on the duece
Here is a shot of the homemade Solarizer mount on my duece. The one on the CUCV is just in front of the passenger side of the windscreen and just behind the back end of the hood. The M52 has it glued to the hardtop on the pasenger side
RE: Must Read! Hurricane Katrina
Sarge:
I am so sorry I don't know what I would do if any of our children passed on. It is not an easy thing to take any way it happens. I know that many of us have already said a prayer for you and your family and we will continue to lift you up to the LORD...
Bruce:
Thanks for sharing this great information with us. The truck looks great just like is wants to come back on active duty. I sure hope one of these days we can meet since we live so close to each other sorry I missed you at Aberdeen. How about some of the truck driving aroud the Maryland...
RE: Must Read! Hurricane Katrina
Guys:
I just printed it to read in a boring meeting I have to hurry off to but while I was in Iraq my son wanted to borrow my duece to drive down and help the people in NOLA but he did not have enough money to do it. I hope that in any situation that calls for...
RE: More pictures. 1968
Great Photos, Thanks for posting them. I know how you feel about how things change. When a young enlisted man in the early 70's I did not see myself owning a duece either but then I would not have been able to take it with me anyway. One of the great encouragements I...
I have them on my Deuce CUCV and M52 all of them have the red LED and if it is not blinking under sun light then it is most likey not working. I have not seen one without an LED
Clint time flys doesn't it? ( even I am over 1,000 posts now) I think this has been my favorite place to hang out and getting to meet all of you great guys from all over America was a real treat for me at Aberdeen. I noticed in our photo album there is an Aberdeen 2006 folder but no Aberdeen...
I doubt that many of our 6602's have 50 year old head gaskets I know my engine was rebuilt in the late 70's, I know that is still an old head gasket but I have older vehicles than that with original gaskets and no leaks. Please let us know how this goes as I am going to turn to on my M52 when I...
DMA that girl is a real treasure, keep her. Mine is much the same four kids and 26 years later.
Bruce:
Thanks my friend we all appreciate the support anyone shows for our efforts in fighting evil and protecting American freedom. I am really kinda sad that I will not be at Aberdeen next year...
RE: Re: RE: Pictures of FMTV Tires
OK I guess I was into country so clue us in on that one it interested me when I first saw his Avatar and wondered what it was can you illucidate?
I will see if any one I know is at Fort Riley and perhaps they can help you get eyes on the truck. The thing about visibilty is an issue when towing my dolly convertor I could never see it until I backed out of line. You could put a couple of bike flags or tape an eight foot 2x4 on the...
I have towed my M105A2 thousands of miles with more than a ton and a half in it. One of the better trailers the Army ever bought. My M969 is my choice if I am hauling logs out of the timberland since it is a 5 ton and has had a lot more than that on it with six 40 diameter logs on it.
Bjorn:
This tread should be a sticky. I have used just about all of the ways mentioned here and agree on taking your time to drill it out all the way down as big as you can without knarling the treads. I have had a few of the wide flat snap on extractors break because they have a wide base. I...
WGTACTICAL:
That is one thing that really gets my goat I am sure he does not get that kind of money for two honda engines so the guy really is bluffing when he said he would scrap them. I have seen lots of scapyards where the guy died keeping all his old stuff because he was too high priced to...
That is great news!
I think your plan is solid, if it is a full size bronco I think you will have no problems towing it and if the M109 has a problem put the Bronco in Low Range and tow the M109 to the nearest rest area or exit and fix the M 109. My bet is having used my duece to pull my M127...
When a Technical Inspection(TI) is done by a unit mechanic after the operator lets them know from Preventive Maintenance Checks and Services (PMCS) that there is a problem with the vehicle the mechanic will do up an inspection form 5988E (formerly known as a 2404) the mechanic will write down...
The real key to any combat recovery is to keep the thing lubed. If it is pouring out do what you can to stop it fill it up and go. Class III leaks deadline a vehicle but if you have to get it home circle X it and go for it you are the commander of this truck now.
