Hello everyone. I am in need of the front main valve assembly on my recently purchased m149a2 water buffalo. If anyone has any spares I’d be interested. Thank you.

Hello everyone. Today I picked up my new to me M149a2. I am usually familiar with how they operate. However, mine has a manifold valve in a design I’ve not come across before. It does not want to turn either direction or pull out or push in. The top and bottom caps open to drain and vent. But, I...

Looking at possibly buying a deuce that needs a complete work up. Doesn’t run on its own currently and no idea about brake condition. Would need transported from Tifton Ga to outside Tallahassee Fl. Can anyone in that area be of help possibly? Will be looking at in person next weekend and can...

Hello all, it looks like the deuces are getting old enough there are more and more out there offered up that are nonrunners or unknown conditions. What’s a fair price for one that’s like that and been sitting with all major systems need at least some type of work to get going safely? Obvious...

Hello all, I’ve taken on a project to restore a M149a1 with what I believe to have a a2 tank (stainless tank). Have some parts on order to get started. But first a good cleaning is in order and then a repaint after final assembly. I know we love pics so here’s some to start. Rescued from...

Hello all, I ran across this trailer that is a little far from me and am thinking of adding it to my fleet. The owner says the data plate is missing and can’t tell me the model. I feel like I’ve seen just one of these before on auction. Anyone know what it is so I can do a little research?

Hello all, recently I picked up a Acutemp fridge and got the refrigerant refilled and installed rank new batteries. This issue I am having is that the batteries are either rapidly discharging, or are not fully charging. I can leave the unit plugged into 110 power for 24hrs and the display says...

I just won a new to me “non runner” MEP-802a from Fayetteville today. It shows 16hrs on the clock. I’ll be heading out from Tallahassee on Friday in the wee hours to make it there by 1230. I will chronicle the adventure as this is my first long distance recovery. It’s mounted on the M1102 based...

Good afternoon all, I am due to pick up an item at the Fayetteville yard on Friday. Any experience with this place?

So after some forum searching i could only find some info on the sf-97 wait times from approximately febuary. Has any had a recent experience with GP and sf-97 times? I am aware of the 30-60 business day wait but purchased a M1102 on 9/23/20 and was wondering should i be concerned yet? Or what...

Hello everyone, I am seeking clarification into the way the brakes work on a single wheel variant of the M200a1 to see if i understand them correctly. If im thinking right as long as the trailer doesnt have an air supply and the tank is drained it should roll freely correct? I am looking at some...

So I picked up a M1102 out of Albany last Friday. I’ve switch the harness pigtail over to civilian 7 blade and changed the rear incandescent bulbs to 1156 and 631. Also noticed the 90a wire broken with no end on it and after some searching I believe this to be a ground so I put a eyelet on and...

Ok so next week I will be towing my new to me 5'er rv to my vacation spot. I wish to know some things to expect when pulling this type of load with a cucv from those that have done it. The truck is a former USAF flight line truck. Non turbo 6.2 auto with 4.10s Crew cab long bed. I know it'll be...

Hello yall, I am the proud new owner of a former USAF 1988 chevy V30. Not sure if you could call it a cucv or not as it is a crew cab. Unfortunately the dealer painted over the blue with green. I love the color it's just not correct for its branch of service so should I stay green or go back...

Being new to the MV hobby I've spent a couple of hours digging through the search archives and found some neat threads. But, nothing that have me what I was looking for. I know the CTIS can be bypassed by placing Schrader valves in the outboard side of the wheel? However the 923a2 I'm currently...

Morning guys and gals! Been a member a while doing research and just now getting around to introducing myself. I am currently looking at a M923A2 but not sure on it yet. There seems to be a great group of folks here and I look forward to meeting y'all. If anyone in my area ever needs help I'd be...
