    slave cables

    I have a set of jumper cables made out of welding cable with very heavy clamps. Prob a lot cheaper than doing an install unless you are just looking for the cool factor. I have jumped many a deuce and 5 ton using them and never had an issue with not getting enough juice to start one.

    Any fellow members in Alabama, or nearby?

    If you are still looking for a M101 I have one out in the yard. Prob not as cheap as getting one from Redstone but no wait. PM if interested.

    ABANDON HOPE ALL YE WHO ENTER HERE Welcome to the Green Iron Laughing Accademy:cookoo: You picked a big one to cut your teeth on. The M915's are pretty decent trucks but short on creature comforts. I wish I still had one but profit overcame sentiment and I sold her down the river. Keep...

    Good Trade?

    The big issue I have with the HUMVEE (and I drove them in the Army) is the automatic transmission. You lose the ability to push start it if you lose juice in the batteries. If a deuce has fuel and air and you pull it a short distance (Hi Range, 3rd gear) it will fire and run. It will get you...

    no power

    I have a round brush that I can chuck into my cordless drill....it is just the ticket for cleaning the inside of the battery terminals....then I use a battery post cleaner to do the posts...this gives maximim current flow from the batteries. Make sure the terminals themselves have a good...

    Auction closing actions

    If I really want to watch the final price I go in just as soon as the auction starts and put in the minimum bid. You can then watch your Bid History and when the auction closes you will see what the high bid was.

    Rear wheel hub on front spindle?

    To paraphrase my friend Kenny: "every time I get the urge for another 5 ton I just pick up that 5 ton brake drum I keep around and move it to the other side of the yard....that usually kills the urge".rofl Good luck with the project.

    Roll Over?

    You can't fix stupid. In any language. :roll: :roll:

    GL and other auctions

    After GL took over as a contractor from DRMO they closed a lot of sites and made a lot of sites "unmanned" which means you have to work around their schedule to preview and pick up. They also ship a lot of stuff (on the taxpayers nickle) to regional sites to maximize their profits. Welcome...

    M200a1 w/M105A2 bed?

    I have seen Water Buffalos dualed out and a M105 with a fuel pod with duals on it. I'm not sure if you can (or have to) flip the hubs to do the mod. If I remember correctly it was not an authorized field modification due to concerns about the bearings. The wheels will stick way out past...

    Name this Tank

    What is the lowest temp your deuce started in

    Good deal.......glad that Mr Murphy was otherwise engaged while you recovered her. Very nice looking truck.

    The Deuce as my backup generator

    The big multi-fuel is going to use a lot of fuel to turn a PTO genny. I concur with popular opinion...get a genny designed to make power. I have a friend that bought a deuce engine and tranny still mounted in the frame to do the same thing you want to do.......it is still sitting in his back...

    Name this Tank

    Looks like the same tracks and suspension as an M48 or M60. DAMIFINO.:?:
