I’m wondering if anyone can post a picture or point me to the correct TM that shows how the slobber tube should be routed?
I suspect mine is too short and it points directly onto the front brake hose.
I believe these are supposed to be longer, but am not sure how they would be without...
Has anyone heard from Rustystud (Greg) lately? I sent him a PM and email, then noticed he hadn't been on the site since March. I also called a landline number I had from him a few years ago but its been disconnected. At this point I'm just wondering if he is OK or not.
If anyone has his...
I'm re-skinning my M109a3 box (currently .050" thick steel sides) and am going to aluminum. I'm told that the M146 trailers which look nearly identical to the 109 box's but longer, are already aluminum skinned. I'm trying to figure out what thickness the military used for the aluminum trailers...
I saw these a while back at my local Fleet Farm store where I had been getting genuine Nato fuel cans until they recently ran out. I think these NATO fuel cans have been unavailable in most states for years now because they didn't have any CARB compliant "spill/vapor/whatever proof" nozzles...
I downsized from my previous WMO filter last year which can be seen HERE. I needed a bit more room in the garage and just didn't need the larger filter setup that had the 55 gallon drum.
I was given a Lincoln 3601 Pressurized oil drain pan (probably an exact copy of the Harbor Freight 20g...
I'm trying to help a guy out and find the correct size O-ring for his 20 bolt Hutchinson Aluminum MRAP rims. Anyone know? If you have info on Oring sizes for other wheels used on the deuce feel free to post up.
I have a drawing of the 24 Bolt Hutchinson Aluminum MRAP wheel and it calls out...

I've got a few unposted TMs related to the Deuce AIR-O-MATIC system from the Manufacturer (3 documents, PDF, 1.5mb total). What is the procedure for getting them added to our TM section? Can I just email them to someone, if so who? Thanks
I'm hoping someone has already done this and is willing to share their work.
I'm installing 2 bucket seats and would like to put some type of flip up seat or fold down backrest center seat in for the rare but occasional times that a 3rd seat is needed.
If anyone has done this, I'd love to...

Here is a wheel I had never seen until a couple days ago, anyone know what vehicles it would come on or have any more info on it?
What I'm told by the seller is that its made by Accuride, its aluminum, and the new style of wheel that fits both 10 lug patterns which I assume is the standard 5...
When I bought my deuce 2 years ago, I decided to start saving my used oil. I was given a clean 55g drum from work and basically just keep all my old oil from oil changes in my cars and deuce (I didn’t keep any gear lube). Well I've now filled the drum and figured I better get the filter setup...

I can't remember if these heater circuit valves are open when they are screwed all the way in like this or when they are screwed all the way out. My search skills on SS didnt come through for me on this one.
I just hooked up the m105a2 brakes yesterday and noticed I had a slight leak from the Red emergency side glad hand on the truck. The black rubber seal was a little chewed up so I just went to Napa to get some new ones. They had red and blue in stock so I bought 3 of each.
The new ones have a...
Here is a massive Load of pictures I've taken since I purchased the truck a little over 2 years ago. I wasn't too interested in taking pictures along the way because it can be tough to make time to take and post them. The good news is they are all bunched together at the beginning here and you...
