    Logic Behind 'New Posts' Button?

    I've noticed something odd, and was wondering how the 'New Post' button logic works. If I log into SS, and then get involved in other things without doing anything with the SS page other than logging in, and then at some point later click the 'New Posts' button, I only get a fraction of the new...

    GL Spamming?

    Has anyone else been getting spammed by GL recently? I must have received 100+ emails from them in the last 24 hours, all the same upcoming auction stuff...

    Looking for Info - Possible Relocation from CA to ID

    We are planning on moving out of CA, for various reasons. Our time frame is a bit wide, depending on if we wait for the boys to finish High School, etc. Idaho is on our short list of places to consider. We have a trip planned soon to have a look around CDA and areas North of there. I would...

    How to know if my 6.2l is running as it should

    Is my 6.2l running as it should? I'm new to diesels, and have owned my M1009 for almost 3 months now. Other than one issue with the GP relay, it has always started and driven fine. My question, which may be me just worrying / wondering for no reason, comes from not really knowing how it...

    Pic Upload Issue w/Firefox?

    Along with all the database errors others have seen today, I've also been unable to upload pictures today using Firefox. Once I do the "Manage Attachments" and "Browse" to the file location and select the file, click the "upload" button, it just sits there, for hours, with the message "waiting...

    "Correct" Shackles for CUCVs?

    After much searching and reading here, I'm still left with some questions. Which shacles were issued for use with the CUCVs? My M1009 came with different shackles on the front than on the rear. From my reading, I think the ones on the back of my truck are the "correct" ones, and the pair on...

    PDF For Military Maintenance Logs?

    Just did my first oil & filter change on our M1009 with my boys the other day, and soon will be doing other maintenance tasks. Lets say I want to get a bit silly about it, and use a log book to track what we have done to the vehicle. Not that a log book is silly, but what if I want to use...

    New M1009 in SoCal

    My Father and I drove out to Nellis this past Thursday and picked up my '84 M1009. The listing said "runs", and she sure does! We went out there with a trunk full of parts, fluids and tools, and didn't need 99.9% of them. While we were there, there was another Father and Son team picking up the...

    Nellis M1009 Recovery 11/03/11 - I Hope!

    I'll be heading out in the morning for my first ever GL recovery. This will also be my first MV. Looking at the directions supplied by GL and judicious use of the sat maps, it looks pretty straight forward to get to the base and GL lot. Is there anything I should be aware of, aside from...

    Doghead Starter Relay Mod Question

    Yes, here we go again... well, maybe not... Hello, I'm fairly new here, and have an interest in getting an M1009 one day, hopefully soon. ( I've also recently discovered that my wife is interested in a deuce, boy am I in for it! ) To prepare for that day, I have been doing a lot of reading in...

    New from SoCal

    Hello SS. I joined the site recently, and have been reading quite a bit in the forums, enough to get me in trouble with the wife for staying up too late. Sorry, can't help it, get lost in a thread and where does the time go? :shock: I learned about this site from Tim at Old Grouch's Military...
