I know that there is a thread of taking 2 M105 frames and making a nice neat double axle camper out of it. I have been searching and looking and looking and searching... Anyone have an idea where I can find the thread???
Thanks!
The BOSS drug me kicking and screaming to the Miami area for a vacation... We will be headed back from Miami to Lake Charles on 05Oct. Plans are I75 northbound and I10 westbound. If someone needs something transported on this date and corridor, pm me with telephone number. I have a short bed...
Question guys,
Does anyone have a M200a1 trailer in the SW Louisiana or SE Texas area?
I am thinking about a project and would like to look over the animal and take measurements...
Many Thanks!

I have been working out of country on a 2 month on and 1 month off schedule. When I got home last time, I found the CUCV dead and the deuce turning over very slow. I have been looking at battery charger/maintainer/desulphater and have decided on either the Batteryminder OR the solargizer...
I was doing the front and rear axle PMs on the daughters M1008 and when I got to the front axle, found this!:shock:
Anyone have an idea where to get a new cover?
I had my mind made up at one time and now I cannot decide and would like to pick minds and see about the options…
What I would like:
Larger sized tires than the 9.00x20.
Keep the trailering aspect of the beast.
Ease (relative) of changing tires by myself on the side of the road.
Availability...
Hey guys,
Monroe has their 3 for 4 shocks going on in September.
Also, Sears has a shock install program going on until the end of October? The program is FREE installation!
Just to let you all know...
Well, I pulled a good one a while back. I was backing up my civvy utility trailer and forgot it was behind me...Let's just say that I know first hand that a trailer can extend out to the side of the towed vehicle by 45deg, forward of the bumper! :oops: And no, there were no pics in order to...
I know that Army, A/F, USMC, and Navy used the Deuce. Tried getting a hold of the USCG history department and they said that there were NO deuces used or assigned to the USCG. The local guys said the same, although none of them were old enough to remember...Do you guys know if there were any...
Looks like the air compressor on my m35a2 took a dump. Was wondering how much of a PIA it is to change the pulley over to the new one, any special tools necessary? Figure a pulley puller and that is about it.
I could not find anything referring to blasting and painting or powdercoating split rings for the deuce and have a few questions:
1. Is it safe to blast Deuce Split Ring Rims for painting or powdercoating?
2. Do you have to keep the ring matched with the rim?
3. Would you paint or powdercoat...
I have looked high and low for 1100x20 sized tires and have only come up with two that are currently being manufactured. Or, should I say, listed on the manufacturer website and can get from a commercial tire shop. One being the Firestone T831 and the other being a Goodyear G177.
Does Michelin...
I've been looking at centrifuges lately and have been wondering about a few things:
1. Looking at the raw power and Wolverine setups, are there anymore out there?
2. Has anyone done a comparison of the two, side by side, so to speak, to see which one works better/faster? I'm not including the...
Has anyone dealt with Stockton Wheel is the past few months? I know they had closed and reopened and was wondering what they were going to offer. The old site had a list of rims they could/would build, now it is 'under construction'.
Was driving to work the other day and pulled over at the first of 3 stops I always make to check her out.
I crawled under her and placed fingers on the transfer and transmission and they were both HOT, had to yank my digits off fast, like not even 1 second!
I checked all fluids the day...
Hey guys,
I have been looking for the dimensions (thickness) for the e-brake and cannot find it. I did find the regular brake shoe dimensions though. Anyone out there know, thanks in advance!
I had a problem with the starter on my M1008 so I pulled the starter. The armature is knackered, so I ordered a gear reduction unit.
For grins and giggles, I went by NAPA and got another starter relay, just for prosperity sake. The following is what I got, it has an extra connection and the...
