    loading Jeep in the bed of a deuce?

    loading Jeep in the bed of a deuce?

    A subject close to my heart! I have been wanting a M36A2 (Long bed M35) for just that reason. I have seen dump coversions (by www.whiteowl.com ) added to the standard bed, which would reduce the length of ramp needed and eliminate the worry about break over angle for cars. Ultimately i would...

    what was the M881 used for?

    I really don't know, but It is possible that if all the other vehicles in a unit had 24v systems they used that version just because? or maybe the thinking was if the radio truck got disabled a switch could be made to a cargo in the field. Possible there was a need to run 24v equipment off of a...

    Tire Thoughts

    My M886 needs tires due to dry rot. If I climb out of this financial hole before someone buys the M886 I'm gonna need tires for it. 16.5" tires are getting extemily hard to come by. I was thinking of putting 16's on it. Right now I have a set of used 16 inch truck tires but no rims yet. I was...

    Ignition Woes
