LMTV Troop seats, cast/extruded aluminum. NOS , 2 sections which I think are for one side. I was going to use them on my M818 / Deuce bed...
Just cut down a non-dropside bed and it was amazingly fast and accurate with a sawzall and some Milwaukee "Torch" blades, cut an entire bed section out , 2 full cuts of the width of the bed, and only used 3 blades. Take your time, use angle iron as a guide and you will be surprised at the ease...
Changed the oil for the first time last night, HOLY COW that is a LOT of oil!
I didn’t think it would ever stop draining out of the filter housing
I also found a leak on the brake line inside the frame rail on the driver’s side. Looks like it might be at the connection between the steel line and...
One pin holds the drawbar/lunette to the trailer and the other pin holds the hydraulic damper (looks like a tiny shock absorber) to the drabar

I could order from Schutt but was assuming they...
So out of my TM 209-2330-392-14P
I need the spec on (2) parts and have searched the internet in vain on the "spec" for these parts. I have the NSN but where do I find out
"it's a pin 6" long and half inch in diameter with a hole at the end for a 1/8" cotter pin"

Have my appointment at 0800 this morning to pick up my M1102 trailer at Anniston
About a 2 1/2 hour ride
Truck is loaded with a few tools and hopefully everything I need. I'm taking a flat bed 16' civy trailer rather than pulling it back since I didn't do an inspection and don't want any...

Let me know if you can help, no particular time frame, we are flexible
Thanks!
(Squirt-Truck) Oh you KNOW I enjoyed!
But let's call a serious moment, my joy pales in comparison to the joy that my dad has every time we take it over to do any work on it. He came with me on the recovery and has been involved every step of the way. I know he has a smile on his face every time...
(Floridianson) Yea... I'm quite the rebel! :-D Hopefully my post wont be deleted because I read the TM but failed to actually follow ALL the steps outlined... We will see...

We scratched our heads for a little while wondering if they would clear or not but turning the knuckle all the way to the rear and they just fit over the end
Bleeders like everything else on the front end were new, so hopefully when and if I ever have to bleed them the wont be frozen!
Here are the axles out, the closest one was the one with the leaky seal, thin grease
The axle splines, not sure if you can see the blue dye or not
Blue grease pencil "16.560" drum turned to
Clean knuckle housing ready for the new seal
New brake shoes!
"Soldier B" hard at work cleaning, its hard...
So after the Georgia Rally I realized I didn't just have split front axle boots I had a leaking front axle seal. After you would drive it you had a fist sized glob of redish tin "grease" under the passenger side of the truck.
So After hours of searching here, I ordered the parts from White Owl...
