    CUCV tool kit...what do you carry?

    Concur with this but guilty of not heeding this advice. We had a bus load of soldiers flip once and only injuries that required overnight stays were due to equipment that had been brought on the bus, in this case several large water pumps.

    Mod of the day - bed crane

    I had a hand crank version of this but was considering switching to electric. The one I have is a cheap harbor frieght one. I broke the cable already once. Yep I need a new one. Might as well get an electric winch and better cable for what I got. You convinced me.

    Help Stuck!! Trying to help came back to bite me!

    Highly suggest reading the Vehicle Recovery manual. There are a lot of good ideas and information in there. I'm always partial to the 1 foot at a time method of using a 4x4 chained to through the rims.

    M1101 trailer picked up from Hooks

    I know the frustration and I could open up a whole bunch of stories to but I will keep quiet for now. I got a set of bow holders for the new trailer if you're interested. They're brand new thanks to uncle. Note, it's just the holder (brackets) that mount to the trailer. I don't have the...

    Wish I'd a known you were on the lookout. I probably could have saved you some dough but it would have been pickup only. Good luck with your pickup. Where's it at???

    My Whoopee Lights and convoy signs

    I don't think it is in the back of the -10 technical manual so it wasn't issued with the vehicle. With that said, a lot of GI's get stuff to use on vehicles they think they'll need. During ODS I had a CUCV that was replaced by a HMMWV just prior to the ground war. After re-reading for the...

    My one dog hates all riding no matter what the vehicle and the deuce would probably put her into PTSD. My other dog loves to ride in most vehicles but in the deuce, he can;t find a comfy spot for his big fat a$$, so he prefers the back of the CUCV. I do keep the window down in the back for...
