So is the intial question about the plugs in the CUCV being 12 Volt or 24 Volt answered here or am I the only one confused? I have a 6.5TD in my 98 Suburban that is getting the SS plugs this weekend and the M1009 needs them too so do I order the same ones or different ones?

Mark: i now it does not always work with the GL folks but give them a call and see if they know if it started or has other major issues. The contact info on the bottom of the GL lot detail sheet has a contact number. I am two hours South and the time is the major issue otherwise I would swing...

The Army actually converted CCKW and other trucks to bus configuration to meet the war torn post WW II people moving situation. Our aggressive transportation plan so well executed by the Army Air Corps wasted most rail and bus assets in Germany and a lot of occupied France. This may be one of...

It was for the STE-ICE system sort of like a high powered OBD II hook up. The only worry I would have is if there was a sensor shorted out by wires being grounded or fryed by connecting with + 12 or + 24 volts. I think the 20 level manual goes into the use of the system and port hook up. This...

RE: Re: Convoy idea..... I work in Northern Va maybe we can meet for lunch sometime and discuss this and other MV topics. I think the trip would be great fun especially if I can bring any of my older children who love Mv's It would almost have to be a weekend deal as I am fully employed week...

Let's see sell the house and tell the wife and kids we will be living in the back of the truck.... might be doable. lol It is a beautiful one indeed looks just like when they issued them to us and we went through NET with them. They are the awesome truck of the Army and worth every penny of...

RE: Re: RE: Convoy idea..... Is this a dead issue or are there still plans or did I miss it? I would try to make it down from Parkville but most likely would be in the M1009 not the M35.

I love Indiana mud and women, God I miss them both since I have a 307 SSN Indiana will always stick with me. I swallowed my first valve in a four cylnder F-head jeep in the same kind of mud you gotta love it. Thanks for the great pictures and keep them coming.

It was an uncommon occurance but in the Korean War there were times when transportation officers loaded 20 tons or more of ammuntion on early dueces even the CCKW ones coming out of war reserve from WW II. This was a if the ammo does not get there we will be overrun situation and from what I...

RE: Re: RE: desert deuce pic Firemen are great but do not cut the truck GOD is that Texas or are they from California? I am sure it is only their fat in the way and not any hose attachment, lol Keep the truck the way the guys designed it mine is doing fine at 36 years and will stomp anything...

RE: Re: RE: Unique military surplus. I was in the Cav too and they put on a great show in front of Division HQ each friday if you are in the area do not miss it. I love horses but I agree these might go to a hungry frenchman

I bought a lot with two dollys that are used to transport shelters, one was fine and I took it home the other was missing so much and is such bad shape I rejected it since it did not even have a tow bar. I might have taken it too if the towbar was there but I was already towing the M1009 and...

RE: batterys... My Energizers have a three year even exchange and free jump starting plan and an extended 10 year taper plan They cost me only $63 each

Seriously as a lieutenant in a medium truck company I used to chase M915 convoys in many parts of the county doing 85 in an almost new M1009. It was such a great change from chasing them in am M151 that I did not mind each time my driver took off and spilled my coffee I has set on the dash to...

RE: yup... Stupid Question I guess but if I hook up my slave cable from the deuce the the M1009 how does that 24 Volt go through all these isolated grounds and stuff and is it going to both batteries or what I am a little fuzzy here

I made a fuel tank cap with a shrader valve in it to prime Thermoking refrigerators on 40 foot reefers when I worked at a truckstop

Great news and a great price for a fine ghetto truck. Heck the Army might even pay you for that camo pattern to go with these new Army Camoflage uniform I am wearing. I hope it runs like most deuces... on and on.
