Damage Assesment To add to this... From a understanding of how one of these winches operate (not actually operating one ;-) or even owning a MV) the winch was not maintained properly (previous operator fault not TKM's.) Judging from the pictures that were supplied I am inclined to say that...

So the general consensus so far is that it is do-able, but not the most efficient way to turbo the 6.2L. To make room under the hood for twins, I guess that remote mounting the batteries would be the simplest thing to do, since wire has negligible downsides the longer it gets. Thanks again for...

Hey there everyone, I do not own any Chevy or military trucks at the moment but would like some information on something that I was reading about. Has anyone heard of or done a remote-mount turbo system before? Can it be done on a 6.2L 1028? Now I keep reading on sites like Pirate, DieselPlace...

Since this would be some very pertinent information on improving a deuce's, I will pose a question to the more knowledgable here. The 2002 Dakota that I have has a dual circuit system where the front driver and rear passenger brakes are on one circuit and vice-versa for the other circuit. Would...

I was reading this entire thread today and was wondering if there were pictures of the 10 lug wheels mounted up with adapters, as in all 6 wheels on your deuce. These look like a very good alternative to recentered rims and a great solution to replacement rims/tires since you can now get the...

Physically impossible without modification. That being said, I know that you can throw duel 395/85R20s on a 5-ton with a mod. Someone more knowledgable please correct me if i am wrong: The deuce frame, suspension and axles would need serious modifications to run properly with 10 395/85R20s...

Curiosity has gotten the better of me, and this thread seemed like a good place to ask, so here it goes... Would someone be able to tell me the differences between Part ALL-5035 (Heater Kit) and Part ALL-5063 (Hot Water) on Eastern Surplus's website? Both parts are near the bottom of this page...

Hercules Just going to share a little bit of information that I found out by using Google. Hercules is still in existence. They are more a sales company for Perkins Diesels, but I looked through their site and found... the attached picture. Also I read the fine print of this page :Hercules...

Thank You for your service and best of luck to you. Times are tough and sh*t happens. Your brother should at least try to help you out for a year considering you put 3 years of your life into putting him back on his feet. That is not being insensitive or anything but a simple statement of what...

lid idea I was just looking at tonneau covers for a civilian truck and a brilliant thought popped into my head for a lid to your shelf/drawer. Why not use the little hydraulic lift assist arms off of a truck cover and fab up something basically the same size as your drawer to be the lid. If...

Very cool... The new paint color scheme actually looks better than the normal camo. Especially when compared to the trees in the last 3 pics of the OP[thumbzup]

No difference. All of the Base and A1 models run the NHC 250 while the A2s have the 6CTA8.3. The transmission for all models is the same from what I can tell. NHC 250 - 250 HP - 685 Ft-Lbs 6CTA8.3 - 240 HP - 745 Ft-Lbs BMY is just the company the contract went out to after AM General stopped...

I have an appointment to preview the trucks... is there anything in particular that I should look for? Like places where rust is common?

Ok, so I have a few forms to fill out/request if the auction is won. EUC and SF-97. Would anyone happen to know if CT accepts an SF-97 form itself or do I need to request the Florida title from GL instead? About the vehicle auction itself... Are the vehicles drained of ALL fluids? I only ask...

So their deadline is AFTER your EUC clears... It was just the way they wrote it that had me confused. I plan on checking at least twice a week once the paperwork is submitted. You definitely cleared things up for me, thanks.

I was reading up on EUCs on this site, and noticed that a lot of first time EUCs have been going through in a month or less. Would you say that this is a "lucky" time for them? As long as I win the auctions, but am waiting on the EUCs to clear, can GL do anything with MY property? Their site...

Ok, thanks for pointing out probably the one thing I must have not seen. I will remember that for the future. Now, about the EUC. How long would you have to file it after the lot is awarded to you? If I win the auction for the pair of M923s, what are good shipping services that you have used...

How does the Gov't Liquidation auction go? As in how do I know what the bid is or that I've won in the end?

I have the Operators Manual, the 4 volume set of maintence manuals, the transportation guide book and the 2 volume direct/general service maintence manuals. I have only gotten to reading the sections of the Operators manual that apply to the 923. I also found the Army basic training video for...

Well, I am looking into getting a pair of M923A2s. Since I am new to the military surplus vehicles game, I figured why not get some expert opinions on these trucks. Both are '91s and have Super-Singles. I do not recall Milage/Hours off the top of my head. What are some issues that you guys have...
