I completely forgot about the winch. That was on my must have list and luckily mine did come with it. Honestly, I think a lot of people just throw an insane price on a truck hoping to snag a fish so to say. There's a Deuce and an M105 trailer not far from me listed for $36,000. Other than a...

From what I've seen a LOT depends on the area and the availability in that area. You have to decide exactly what you want and what it's worth to you. Personally, I was looking for a 100% rust and damage free truck with the drop side bed and split brakes so I was limited to the AF Deuces. I was...

You could try Bobby at Gensco Tire. I bought a pile of NOS and 99%+ take-off tires from them. All are dated 2007 or newer with zero sidewall checking. They claim to store them indoors and out of direct sunlight. I see no indication to the contrary. No idea how many they have left after my...

Does your voltmeter hold steady at idle? Or does it look more like my video?

I installed the Boyce alternator kit a few months ago when my original died. Aside from the fitment issues that I tried to discuss with them to no avail (which will be corrected later) I've noticed something else. The volt meter now bounces at idle (see the attached video link). With just the...

What troubleshooting have you done? Have you pulled the exhaust to check for oil buildup? Have you pulled the inlet and outlet piping on the compressor to check for oil or for residue on the compressor wheel or inside or the piping? As for number 1 in your post if the oils is leaking into the...

Deuce related. I picked up 2 more Marsh Stencil machines for the repaint come spring. Seller was nice enough to throw in a full case of oil board and some other small items. That gives me a 1", 3/4", and a 1/2" machine which should cover anything I may need for my equipment. I never thought I...

Guess I better start digging for a part number. =)

Was there a Load tamer made specifically for the M105's by chance?

I looked at it this morning. The radiator neck and overflow lines are in the way for a standard rod to be stowed under the hood so it would be a challenge. Another option would be a standalone rod but it would have to be stored somewhere.

I was thinking it could be mounted to one side like the jeeps. It's just a matter of having a long enough rod to get enough lift to be useable. No idea if an appropriate rod could be fitted side to side but I feel that it's a viable idea. Might be nice for display at shows too. For all I know a...

I've seen the thread on those and they are a slick idea. For me, opening the hood is no big deal. It's just that first couple of inches to get the hood latch released. Since I seem to be in the engine bay constantly just having an actual grab point made opening the hood 95% less hassle and much...

I've been so happy with this addition that I went ahead and made some extras. I'll throw a listing in the classifieds for them if anyone would like one.

Looking forward this one.

For those that find themselves with a damaged power wire on their in-tank pump this may be helpful. In my never ending hunt for spare parts to keep on the shelf I ran across a good deal on a NOS Olympic Controls in-tank fuel pump. Ordered it up and waited for it to arrive. Upon delivery I found...

I went through this a while back. It was brought to my attention that you can use the cab seals from an M939. You need to remove a few inches from the center and use sealant on the seam where the two halves will meet. I liked this idea better than using permanent sealant all the way across. The...

For unheated indoor storage I would place bait traps in the cab and engine compartment for the rodents. If you leave the batteries in the truck I would disconnect them to eliminate any possible parasitic loss and run the maintainers. Double dose the tank with fuel stabilizer and drive the truck...

What are the exact storage conditions? Indoor, outdoor, Northern winter?

If you have the adjustable pedals that can also play into it. I have mine on the lowest setting to gain some foot/leg room.

I would get that done before I spent a single penny on parts. I think you’ll be surprised.
