Me too! They used to be all over the place and nobody wanted them but now they are like hens teeth. Armada put one on a M1009 a few years back and said they are a pain to install but nice once installed. Up here in the snow zone it would be nice to have one truck equipped with it.

There is a bit more to a stock CUCV kit gymp.. Shrouds for the oil pan, cab and door insulation and lots of brackets..

(only picked Lane because he can dedicate the whole day to do it). I thought I was special.. :-(:-D However it works out. I have Dr Dave and his indian ear scheduled for Friday.. Now I did just think of something! When you come to get them! Why don't you guys drive another couple hours north if...

I do not have three drivers. As of now we plan on taking my CUCV down, towing it behind one M818 and the 3rd M818 behind a M818 #2.. That way we don't have to go back to the base after a truck. This is just what I discussed with Eric and have not talked with Glenn yet but I know doghead has been...

Josh if you want to meet us there Friday morning a extra driver, oil checker, chase trucker would not hurt a thing.

What about a heavy duty 8 lug electric brake axle swap? Or mounting the kitchen part of the unit on a tandem axle car hauler trailer frame with electric brakes? You would be lowering it and have brakes? And then it would not be so hi to walk up in it either.. Just a thought.

Don't forget to take into account the high center of gravity on the MKT.. Without brakes to help it stop it, it will tend to push down and under the pulling vehicle lifting the rear tires and throwing it wherever it wants. Your M1028 should do it with some weight in the back and maybe a...

Finders keepers! and due "diligence" of the buyer! :p

Does Jtonka just make the bra or reproduce the entire kit? I sure would love to put one on my truck for this winter..

Anybody have some nice M101 green or camo vynil cargo covers for sale? I would also like to find one good M105 cover in 3 color camo.. I have a full set of M1008 troop seats for sale or trade.. A decent M1008 tailgate, exhaust kits for a deuce I could bring. M37 parts and more! Anybody have the...

That's allot of miles! You have the life I always wanted chasing them big Wapiti all over the country! Careful what you say I might just come visit and try to get a ride in that fancy M37 6x6 while I am at it...and shoot a Elk too! I have several of these trucks and one runs ok I think this one...

There is two valuable things left on that truck that should be saved.. The Spitfire head off the engine, and the intake and exhaust manifold set. The rest is scrap.. The motor is no doubt full of water and not savable. That should be the long block flathead maybe a 237 or 251 and those manifolds...

I have several CUCV's and they all run very well.. I think I will just put the utility box on one of the M1028's and then put a M101box on this truck and call it good. The truck only has 11k for miles on it though. The motor has a new carb,new distributor,new plugs and wires,oil change,new...

Good job jack! yep! Thats the rubber mat and foam insulation moisture trick.. That is a straight blazer! I could use the doors if they are for sale?? Tailgate? Man how much for it without the motor?? Hehehehe..

There is your first group restoration project for the MMMT! :grd: Restore it and put it in your first building. Johnny Mac would probably save it?? He has one he has been working on.. If I buy it you deliver Bob?? My neighbor just got $265 a ton so the $1200 is not to bad for rare truck don't...

The 6.2 has a pretty good torc curve and this would be a pretty simple swap if the adapter plate was still readily available and affordable. But its not, so next in line would be A complete driveline swap..This would work but then just use a chevy truck and have a better front axle,power...

They can rant and rave who cares.. Its about what works.. they all make junk and they all make some good stuff. "Function before fashion" for me all the way.. If they start bad mouthing it I will sick the mods on em! :) sick em dog! sick em!

Post the pics on this thread would ya? I must have missed this build.. Did you document it through Steel Soldiers? Sounds interesting and I like your idea and input.:jumpin:

The 360 was on the table but the plate was empty.. I can't seem to find one of them in good working order in these parts?? I really would like to delete the spark plugs but it's so much hassle in this particular application. All the upgrades you mention would cost me more than 3 - 6.2's.. I am...

I have a 4 BT that I am saving for a M56B1 project but it might just end up in this truck.. They are just so hard for me to get and not that cheap anymore.. Thats why I started down the 6.2 road because I have some nice ones but the direction is still undetermined. Some excelent info brought to...
