doa, I can attest that Mariano was in no way trying to scam you or anyone else. Mariano is a very honest man with a lot of integrity. He told me on Saturday that he had someone interested in the truck CUCV he had for sale, and he was going to come to the shop on Sunday morning to clean the...

dao, Thank You for editing your post.

dao, I am going to make a statement. militarytrucks.com is no way involved in your personal business dealings with Mariano. The business you had with him does NOT have anything to do with "militarytrucks.com" or Auction Plus. He rents shop space from Auction Plus. His transactions are his...

I have not priced CNC plasma cutting, or water jetting in my area at this time that is why I stated this above. "At this time estimated sale price of the kit w/ shipping to the lower 48 states will be $400.00" I am conducting the poll to see how much interest there is in a kit, and if it is...

My apologies !! I had posted this in the vendors forum, then realized only vendors could vote in the poll. :sad: A customer had seen a brush guard winch mount on a CUCV featured during a YouTube show "Dirt Every Day". He asked if I could make a mount like he had see on the show. I was able...

The Go Big or Go Home (aka "Tatonka Negro") project began 5-26-16 as a very nice M818 tractor. I know many of the MVPA members scoff at such builds. But it is projects like this that help to keep the economy going. The M818 Lives on as something else that for my customer is more enjoyable to...

It has the stock Stock 250 Cummins still in it. The customer has been warned repeatedly not to over speed the engine.

The hood scoop is just there for decoration (the customers idea). Nothing else.

This is a bobbed 5-ton build I am doing for a customer. It is almost complete. It started life as a M818 tractor. It is now 9'9" tall with a 154" wheel base and track width of 101" It has 9" of lift. It rolls on 54" tall x 24" wide 24R21 Michelin XZL tires mounted on custom offset OTR wheels...

It is consistent. It would for sure make an excellent bracket race truck with those time slips.

Is the emergency shutdown flap closed? The fuel rack may need to be adjusted.

The MVPA is a automobile club specifically for military vehicles. Anyone can join. Pay the fee, and you get a sticker to put on your vehicle.

I had new sneakers put on the M1009, and hosed out the cab. I have been driving The M1009 regularly lately while I service my Dodge Dually . I can happily report since I installed the 6.5 turbo engine, the fuel mileage is great. It averages 19mpg on my daily commute (mixed city/ highway). If I...

Doug, "Charging issues" is too general of a description to help diagnose the problem you are having. Have you tried following the troubleshooting steps in the Technical manuals?

When using a vacuum gauge to adjust the valve at the side of the injection pump, I like to set the valve so there is 10 HG of vacuum going to the modulator at idle. More vacuum = earlier shifts Less Vacuum = later shifts Adjusting procedure is in the TM 9-2320-289-34 section 3-46

It is your truck. Do as you please with it. Georgia is a long way from me, but I will bob your deuce for you.

I have seen pictures, and a video of it running, and driving. The Detroit is in this truck. Beeson did a great job with the swap!!!

"How difficult is it to remove the front leafs and replace the bushings?" Support the vehicle by the frame. Position floor jacks under the front axle. Remove the front spring shackle mounting bolts. Lower the front axle. Drive the old worn bushings out with a drift, and large hammer...

One of my most recent builds, and my buddy Miko.
