    M929 Dump Truck flexibility?

    Five ton dumps are great for short hauls and off road use. My buddy hauled the red clay with his 800 series 5ton that was used to build my dam. They are slow on the road and if you have the 250 Cummins they are loud. You will roast in the summertime. Windshield wipers and defrosters are...

    M109-a3 1969

    The only thing that lies more consistantly than a politician running for re-election is a military vehicle fuel guage.:roll: This is the voice of experience speaking. I once ran the same truck out of fuel three times on the same trip.auaaua

    Can you tow a MK48 trailer with an M35A2?

    deuce won't idle cold on oil mix

    Remember this: The longer the truck runs the warmer the fuel in the tank get due to excess fuel being returned to the tank via the return line. Warm fuel is thinner than cold, especially if you are running heavy oil like WMO or WVO. When I was running my "Deuce Juice" mixture I noticed the truck...

    Looking to get a Deuce

    If you make it to the GA Rally look up brother Clinto. He refurbs deuces and his attention to detail is awesome. If you buy one from him it will be a quality truck.

    Looking to get a Deuce

    What Chief said. You can't have more good clean fun, eat better food and meet a bunch of better people than at the GA Rally. You will see trucks that will knock your socks off.

    suggestions on 5 ton truck

    I have driven just about everything in the Army inventory since 1972 and the M927 I own now is hands down my favorite. I've had a multi-fuel 5 ton tractor, a M816 wrecker, a couple of M915's and a bunch of deuces. The M900 series 5 tons are pretty user friendly, parts are available at NAPA or...

    Appels M916a1 flatbed winch truck

    Have you considered HEMMT rims? I think they are the same bolt pattern. The HEMMT's used 1600X20's but you could put 1400's on them.

    Non turbo header and stack

    I have always thought a header would be cool on a gasser deuce (GM 302 engine) and a custom intake you could mount a four barrel carb on. I think I remember there being a lot of aftermarket parts for the GMC. Hummm...goggle is my friend:The 302 GMC inline six was produced from 1952 to 1960 and...

    M1102 for bobber

    I picked up a couple of those trailers for a fellow member last year and if I remember correctly ((if frogs had wings they wouldn't bump their butts so much) you can unbolt the body from the frame. I was thinking the same thing concerning using one for another purpose. They are a pretty good...

    Adding a replica M2 to an Deuce

    This is how they were attached/mounted on the Vietnam era gun trucks.

    Allison M916 + Mk48 Cab = 6x6 "FEMTT"

    That's it.....guess it was a 5 ton instead of a deuce.
