    transmission

    Have you checked the fluid?...I bought a deuce out of SC that had all the fluids removed from it. I topped off all the other ones but forgot to check the tranny.....when I took it for a test run it sounded like it was grinding gravel. Topped it off and it was good to go.

    Fuel efficient parking spots

    Funny.....my deuce doesn't have any door dings either....people seem to avoid parking near it...maybe because it tends to mark it's territory.

    Aparently there's an issue with my sig

    When I was running Soldiers I had some that did the minimum and some that gave 100%......the ones that gave 100% got rewarded...the others got what they earned. I think you are entitled to your "perk" for doing the dirty work others (including myself) don't have the time, expertise or...

    M1095 trailers

    I bought it to work like a rented mule clearing 40 acres of scrub timber but the Boss Lady says it's too purdy to put out in the woods. It has already been in one show and it will be in a Veterans parade next month. Make me an offer.

    What is a CHETT 10 ton truck?

    I think you mean Redstone, AL. I think it is a HEMMT transmission...I saw a bunch of them yesterday when I was up there. The HEMMT and the M911 both have the V-8 Detriot in them so they may be the same anyway. Sometimes the descriptions are written by people who have no clue what they are...

    It would look good behind my M927.

    M812 front end swap

    There may be some differences since the hubs were made to hold the bigger tires used on the bridge trucks. Or they may have just put some kind of adaptor on a regular 5 ton axle.

    Insurance on an LVS MK-48?

    Have you tried JC Taylor.....the do MV's but they put a lot of restrictions on what you can do with it. You also have to have indoor storage. I pay about 100 bucks a year for full coverage on my deuce through them. My big trucks are insured through Progressive but they ain't cheap.

    I'm looking for input about 3 color for m1009

    All vehicles were (supposedly) painted to the same standard as per the TM-43-0139 Painting Instructions for Army Material Manual. Using this logic a MP deuce should look like any other unit's deuce.......in theory....not necessarily in practice.

    Tire Safety 14x20

    The trucks with CTIS are notorious for tires going flat and staying that way for extended periods. Inflating them will sometimes show cracks....sometimes not......I have one on the rear of the M927 that is suspect.....it leaks down over a period of days even with the CTIS hooked up. I have...
