I have been away from the board for quite some time. My youngest son went away to college and most (all) of my toy money went to finance his education. Fast forward a few years and he has graduated and now I’m finally at a point that I can go back to playing with trucks. My son and I started...

The Florida Strongman competition will be held in Clearwater Florida at the Steak and Lube on July 7, 2012. Some of the proceeds are going to Sand Soldiers of America which is a charity to help our returning vets. They are looking for 5 - 6 MV's to be parked at the event. Armed Forces...

I was just on GL to take a look at what is coming up and every listing says that it is in AZ. I know they are based out of there but did they start to move all auctions there as well or is there a problem with the way they entered it on their end? Wayne

I run the Michelin 395's on my deuce. I was talking with the Michelin rep at work and was asking about pricing on tires. He said that he was fairly sure that Bandag could recap my 395's with a tread patteren that would almost be the same as what came on it. Cost would be much cheaper than new...

I have searched but have not found an answer to my question. What was the purpose of the ability of flipping the lunette? What vehicle would tow a M105 except a deuce or bigger? Anything smaller would not have the air brake hook up so the trailer would not have brakes. Was this just the way...

I have searched but have not been able to verify if these are a direct retrofit for a deuce front turn lamp. These lights do not come with a can but appear that they will bolt right up to the can. Looks like I will just have to remove the bulbs and run the wires through the can. Is this...

I am back in Arkansas to visit my Mom and Dad and found out that this weekend is the Petit Jean MVPA show. Anyone in Arkansas going to be there on Sat? I am planning to head up with my dad to go check it out and would like to meet any fellow SS members in the area. Wayne

Does anyone know how fine the screen on the fuel strainer is on a deuce? I am running used motor oil and want to know what size stuff it is catching.

I have bought a 5.9 Cummins that was used as a fire pump motor with only 80 hours on the clock. The plan was to re-power my deuce. It is rated at 208HP at 2100. The engine is complete with starter, alt, fuel pump, turbo and engine control box. After I got it home and really looked at it, it...

I have found a guy with a almost new tarp for sale but he is not sure that it will fit a deuce. The numbers on it are 19207-12420281-016......with ........mfr-54799. Can anyone tell me if this will fit before I drive all the way to go look at it? Wayne

Well it is official, I finally stepped up to the plate and bought a duce. I have to pick it up in Little Rock AR on April 6. I have had someone go out and look at it the truck and starts, runs, and moves. The brakes are soft so I will have to bleed them before I can drive it. Recovery4X4 has...

I have bought a Saic V2 LC computer and it did not come with the power cables. I do have the power supply but not the 2 cables. I believe that this computer has been used in the HumVee's and thought that someone here may have a set of the cables that they can part with. Also looking for the...

I just bought a M103 with 2 5kw gen sets on it. The lunnett is the goose neck (bent) style. Can it be flipped so that it drops down instead of going up? If so it would help to get the trailer level so it can be brought home. Thanks for input, Wayne

I have purchased a nice M101A2 to tow behind my 710M. The lunnett will fit into the Swiss pintle but it does bind when in a hard turn or backing up. I was thinking that a replacement pintle from Buyers might bolt onto the 4 mounting holes but have not measured yet. Has anyone checked this...

I am about to buy a old flat bed trailer to tow behind my Pinz. It used to have 2 miliatry gen sets on it. I think that it is a M-116A1 ( no surge brakes) but I am not sure. I have seen a trailer like this that had a complete tarp covering 4 bows. Any idea where I can get the bows and tarp...
