36 x 12.50 x 16.5 on stock M880 wheels. Truck has an extra leaf in the front. Going down the paved road the outside 1 1/2 inch of the tread does not touch. which keeps the noise down. They handle/ride better than I expected. I won't keep these on this truck long as I can't risk the fenders :cry:

I just picked up some humvee tires for my camper project, Had to test them out on the M880 1st though. :D

Hey, I won't make Friday night, still have 1 more night of prep to do. I hope to be pulling in 8ish Saturday AM. Will be heading up 65 to 32. (Open to cutting over to 33 @ Rose City to hook up with John)

and I.m still trying to find out how well those humvee rims/tires fit on Don's M886 :?

RE: M886 Dodge Power wagon I haven't heard the 400 thing, Although if there was, It was probably 400 were M893 2wd ambulances. which would have been for state side base use, no off road. If you are converting to a camper, I may be interested in some of the military parts.

This ones next weekend . 8-10 thru 8-12. The Michigan Museum of Military Transport, puts on a display in conjunction with a local Museum. Whos' going? I haven't officially committed as I am still working on the trucks taday! Thinking of bringing both the M880 and a M886. The GPW isn't...

Re: RE: M880 Troop Seats No extras on those parts...........but..............I do have a box of the nuts / inserts that go on the tailgate for the "cargo cover retainer bar" (don't know real name) to attach to. Far better than drilling holes all the through the tailgate!

RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: M880 article and pics posted My Apologies John, We had communicated on the errors in this article last summer. You suggested that I write a correction and send it to you. Following up on and correcting those errors didn't seem like a subscriber responsibility to me.

RE: Re: RE: M880 article and pics posted No I'm just saying the article has some mis-information, same as I noted when the print issue came out. Granted, I didn't spend my time writing a free correction for your magazine. (Which I pay for)I simply posted a couple of the errors on here at the time.

Tou could get one from a junk yard or a parts truck I suppose. The data plates have the VIN , Reg # date of delivery, Model # etc, stamped into the metal. I see no way of re-stamping one either.

Thanks John, It would have been nice to have had the inaccuracies / mis-statements corrected or at least noted at the end.

Well,,,,,,,,,, She is too far rusted to restore (within financial reason). I'm seriously considering a customization into an off road camper. Still an expensive process, yet things can be done cheaper when originality isn't a concern. The other option is to part it out and scrap the remains...

Picked up another M886 yesterday :roll: On the way home I came to the realization that it was last May when I picked up the M880 that I was towing this M886 home with. After I buy this one, I find out I could of got a rust free M725 with an oil burning problem. Oh well. and my Apologies to...

CUCV pintle on stock M880 bumper, with custom radius'd spacer (thin rusty piece)

From TM

Pintle is rotating type, almost idetical to cucv & humvee unit. On the 880 the pintle is mounted where the license tag would mount on a civi truck. the tag area has rienforcing plates and the bumber brackets have an added piece of angle iron for rigidity. I will look for some pics

it's not there :?:

What are the specs for tightening the bearings on a DANA 60 rear drums?

I was thinking the same thing about the back spacing issue, I think mcguyver used aftermarket rims. I heard somewhere that the Humvee rims will fit. These things seem to breed like rabbits around here! Recently sold a M882, Currently in the yard are 1 M880, 1 M882, 1 M884, 1 M886 and 1 79W200...
