so my m52 didn't have a passenger seat when I got it,figured I'd bend some metal up or make one somehow.
the other day my daughter and I (she helps in all things vehicle related)go out to figure out what to do so my kids can ride with me. I'm looking at sheet metal and tin snips and angle...
I know it's somewhere but i'll be darned if I can find it. I just need the dimensions of the frame ext's for a front 5 ton winch. just got a 20000 garwood w/ rollers, no tensioner or winder, paid 350 delivered. my m52a2 is not really restorable, but more of a work truck, so I plan on making the...
can anyone tell me what this is? I think its a rear winch off an old gasser. size? haven't seen it in person ,just these pics .I'm thinking about gettin' it for my m52 (behind the cab).
thanks ...Jon

...so I made this in a couple hours. not pretty ,but it works.
1/2" hole the power switch fits in to keep it from moving and a U around the fuel cutoff. I just slide it...
well it's actually a 5ton ,not a deuce, but...
I have 2 interstate batts in my batt box right now ,no problems,but I have room for 1 more. I like the idea of having a spare onboard .is there any way to keep the 3rd batt charged? I'm thinking I can just switch cables once a month or neck down the...
I'm sure I read something about this here, but can't find it. took my m52a2 out today to move some big hay rolls around for a friend (no pics) and while driving through a gully/ditch my front made a clicking or ratchett sound. it was some pretty ugly terain,but thats what these are for,right...
I know it's a longshot, but can anyone identify this door marking? It appears to be a covered wagon(?), but obviously a stensil of something. The bumper says "1CAV 5FSB B42" , if that helps. Any info is appreciated. I'd like to put it back after I paint it. Thanks... Jon
I know there was a post here somewhere about someone putting 14.00 20's or something on stock 5 ton rims. can't seem to find it,any thoughts. I'm looking to single my m52a2 but the 52's are just too big. lookin at 14's or 395/85's. will either one fit on a stock rim or is that too silly? I've...
I've searched but get different answers,exactly how wide is a m52a2? or I guess more to the point,will it fit in a 100" space? don't have access to a flatbed/stepdeck, but seriously thinkin about putting it in my refer (102" wide inside)...think it'll fit? am I right in thinking that its 98"...
this might be a moot point as I may have them sold already ,but what is a set of m52a2 axles actually worth?
all 3,rear srings and all,bogies still on frame, frame cutoff in front/behind 5th wheel.
thanks...jon
need advice here please.
I'm buying a 5 ton ,haven't picked it up yet. seller says the brakes went out,now the rear axle leaks (both sides).
I'm a little concerned about both going the same time. is this normal ? on any other vehicle id think contamination .
thanks ...jon
first off this is just an idea as I really like the hemtt's but know i can never afford one.
I don't even have my first mv home yet, m52a2, but I do have a set of 5 ton axles sittin here,complete with transfer case and drivelines. far far away in the future , I was thinking about putting 2...
bought a truck in boise and don't have the time to pick it up yet, thought maybe someone on here could get it headed this way for me. its a runner, should be an easy drive to pocatello or idaho falls if anyone can store it there, then i can just drop down 15 and grab it when i get home again.
of...
kinda new to these things, till I got some 5 ton axles,now I just bought a M52a(?) I'm afraid I'm hooked.
the owner said it was rebuilt in 87 (tags and all) and that it runs great,but looks a little beat.
well how bad did I do for my first MV? I'll post some pics when I get it home...
hello all,just signed up, great site.
I don't have any MV's yet,but have always wanted some. let me get to the point.
this may sound blasphemous or be the wrong place for this post,if so move it or delete it accordingly.
I just got a set of axles and 2 speed t case from a 71 kaiser M52a? wish...
