Here we go... I'm building my M109A4 for the upcoming zombie attack! It is going to be similar to Mike's from SC in that it will have space for a pantry and some living quarters. I plan on using it for fun events for my company as well as a bug-out vehicle. Here goes....:beer: Step 1 Get all...

OK guys... I need help. GL says I'm not sending in the right vin information. Here are some photos of all the numbers and data plates I can find on the MKT. If I'm missing one somewhere, would someone please tell me where to look. I just spent all morning under it with a flashlight and found...

Can anyone give me a an overview of the electrical system inside the m109 box? Is there a TM for it specifically? I am wondering how it is powered on the inside and where the power comes from. Is there an inverter or no power while underway? Somebody please give me an overview and directions...

I'm really excited to join the 109 crowd. I won one of the M109A4's out of PA today. Paid a little more than I would have liked, but got a real nice one. Anybody else get one? Can't wait to put the MKT behind it and get going. Lots of fun! [thumbzup]

So.... Here I am today, working in the m1009. It's nice and sunny and 75 out. Light breeze. Dogs rolling around in the grass. I decided today was the right day to put the spin on fuel filter on the 1009. That was a pretty easy process. Everything went pretty smooth. Thanks pawnshop for the parts...

Anybody have a 818 or other tractor and want to make a run from Redstone to Mt. Vernon IL? The trip is 349 miles. The trailer is a 30 foot van trailer with a single axle. It weighs about 10,000 pounds. Should be in drivable condition. Any help or ideas will be greatly appreciated! Thanks to all...

Is there anyone going to Fort McCoy in Sparta Wisconsin soon? I won a small GP tent and I would like to buy more stuff to make the trip worth while. If anyone could pick it up and store it for a week or two that would save me a bundle! I will help out in any way I can! Let me know.... Thanks...

Got my MKT to the house today. 375 mile trip and all went well. Had lots of tools in it, but no MBU's.... Oh well, can't win them all. Anyway, here are a couple pics. :-) It got dark on me, so I'll have more pics tomorrow. It is a two man job to set one up. One thing that I was very happy about...

Just noticed these at the truck repair center in town so I snapped a couple pics. What are they? I had not seen a new international like this before. They looked cool.

Did anyone preview the MKT's from this week in Ohio? I bought one and was wondering if anyone knew anything about them. I did not preview and would like to know if there is anything inside and the general condition of the trailer. Thanks for the help! Russell P.S. Anyone want to bring it to...

Do any of you make money with you MV's? I know the answer is yes, but I wonder if you could tell us how you use them. I'm not looking for any private information, but tell us how you put these old warriors to work in their new life. Do you use them everyday, part time, never or cash only and...

Well guys...I finally got lucky with GL. Got my Deuce home from Redstone today. It looks like a recent rebuild. Tags say 2008 for batteries. Not sure on the motor. It still has fairly fresh paint on the engine. It is really nice! Needs some new tires on the front, but started up and drove fine...

Quick question for all the Deuce mechanics: Can you run a spool in the front diff with lockout hubs? If my thinking is correct, you could. This is because the lockouts would allow the spool to not spin at all. Also, the air-locker would also disconnect the driveshaft and allow the spool to spin...

Anyone have a line on a replacement seat back and seat bottom on a deuce spring seat? Mine are falling apart and don't look to be salvageable. The seat is mechanically sound. I even out a new shock in it. I hate to spend the money for a whole new seat. Thanks for the help.

Here goes my first recovery... er.... pickup from a private seller. You decide if it is a recovery. It will be a medium distance. (201 Miles) One thing going for me is that the owner says it is in good running condition. It is a former brush fire truck. I bought it sight-unseen. Wish me luck...

Well friends.... There is a good discussion going on another thread about Bobbing a 5ton. I thought it might be interesting to see what everyone thought about the general question of: To Bob or Not to Bob. In the interest of full disclosure, I own a bobbed deuce. I bought it from another member...

:-P All right guys... I am thinking about converting a Deuce to a M275 tractor. Guys that have done it and guys that have real M275's let me know what you think about the trucks and how you use them. The reason I'm thinking about it is twofold. One: license and fees are a lot less than...

I just won a m348a2 trailer at Redstone AL and need it transported to 62864. The trip is 375 miles according to google maps. I will be sending in the EUC on Monday. When it clears I will need a tractor to move it to Mt. Vernon, IL. Let me know if you all know anyone or are interested in moving...

I was doing some research today and ran across this web page at the department of energy. It has a link to each state and answers some general questions about what the requirement are for different fuels. It also lays out the way they "should" be taxed. Take a look. Click on your state and see...

Last night, while going out to Col Sanders for takeout in the deuce, I had the chance to test my braking distance in my bobbed deuce. I had a 16 or so young gal turn in front of me as I was about 100 feet from crossing the intersection. I locked up all four 15.5's and scared the living s%^$ out...
