Thanks the deck was almost perfect except for extra holes. What year and model is your mule? have you posted pictures of it on here?

Here are a few pictures I did not take any pictures of the engine between tear down and reassembly. Here is a before and after pictures with some in between pictures. All in all took 11 months that's not working on it every weekend just here and there. This has been the simplest restoration I...

I put a gen set motor in the mule I just restored. Be careful putting the crank shaft pulley on the new motor the Key that came with the new motor was to big and it broke the pull when I installed it so uses as many of the old parts as you can. Also use the spin on oil filter that comes with...

HQ5 would be more correct than HCS. there are a few numbers missing to tell you a unit but I would expect that there would not be enough room on the mule to put complete unit markings.

Digger09 do you remember what size battery you are using? I like that set up and I am thinking about going the ammo can route.

I picked up a M170 a few weeks ago and my brother has started striping the fire department red off. We have located the original hood numbers (US ARMY 1H3935) and I found the original unit numbers on the rear bumper. The problem I am having is the driver side unit numbers make no since to me...

Just picked up a M170 my self. Not trying to high jack the thread from Brachus12 he gets first dibs for any offers on this thread but any scraps Ill take lol Im in need of litter rack and driver and passenger seat parts as well.

That is weird I would say its something in the transmission but you might all so check the park brake band as well.

WOW that is a clean truck great find

I picked up one early this year going to bring it back to Vietnam era and fill it full of old 105 round crates just need to find a cover for the bed.

gungearz, some of the main differences between the XM and regular a2 some have the park brake handles changed to a newer style, the body may or may not have the lifting eyes on the side where the xm did not, the landing legs changed to the adjustable kind but all in all the same trailer. IM sure...

Really nice that trucks got all the extras fording pipe, winch, radio, 2 spare engine the most important spare part lol great find[thumbzup]

:ditto:

Ive seen the drop tie downs on 1 1/2 ton trailers looks like a unit took some tie downs off a 1 1/2 ton trailer and made them work on the m101a1 cool idea
