    M1009 no lights

    I really appreciate your reply. As I was trying to diagnose this issue from a distance (not home while the missus is out and about with the Blazer) I was looking for the simple answer. Well, my friend, you gave it to me. She sent me a pic of the 30A fuze cooked to a crisp and the fuze block...

    M1009 no lights

    Had the M1009 out recently after sitting for a few months on a shakedown tour. After charging up flat batteries, she started right up and ran well. No issues. Checked to make sure all the lighting was working great, no issue. Had it out a day later, returning from work when I noticed that the...

    Identifying Plateless Mule

    Send your numbers over to G503 and see if Chuck W can give you exact proof. He maintains the largest data base of Mules in the world.

    Bumper Markings

    Can someone tell me what the correct color is for the background for bumper markings? Looks like sand to me but a proper Mil-spec paint would really help me out. My recently purchased M1009 has had the bumpers painted over, not sure if the original markings are even under the paint without...

    45th Annual East Coast Military Vehicle Rally Militaria Flea Market 10-12 May 2018

    My wife and I started going about 5 years ago. Within three years of going we already saw a downturn in the show. We did not go last year or this year and from the opinions expressed by many it seems as if this was the right decision. It appears that perhaps Findlay is beginning to take over...

    2018 Findlay Oh Armed forces day buy-sell-trade & Info

    Anyone in the area of Eastern Surplus headed to Findlay? I am looking at an item which is bulky and lightweight yet ridiculous to ship via courier. Willing to pay if anyone can help me out with a reasonable rate.
