    Soft top separated from plastic channel

    The only problem I found was when I fixed the front clip a little while later the zipper on the back windows stitching came out too. So I would look at both then decide........

    About 12 hours away from buying my first deuce!!!

    The main thing to consider also is does it have a clear title. I have to agree on the milage it is really high for the price. I would use it as a bargaining chip. Like most things its a matter of what you really want and what you will use it for. Good luck........

    My M109 with a new look.

    You guys did a nice job. I like the 109,s but they were to hard to come by without some major rust problems so I went for my 5 ton. But would still like to have one in the future it's good to see they are being preserved so well by guys like you ......

    Is this a M101, or a M101A1?

    I think it is a 101 . I had a 101 and it looks to me like the one I had. I would like to see a side shot of the lugs on the wheels. The fact that it has the ndt,s and same basic frame design and the year of the trailer leads me to this conclusion .......

    Greenville SC Veteran's appreciation day

    I'm glad you are going to be a part of this tribute. I had wanted to use my 923A1 for a few parades but, the time I have had to get it what I would consider worthy of such an honor is slow going. I always heard the older you get the faster time flies but, man someone needs to put the breaks on...

    How do I remove this talcum powder residue?

    It will come off with a little urging from a pressure washer you just have to be careful doing it , Also Gojo and a soft brush should dissolve it and won't hurt the top.

    Exterior Latex/Acrylic House Paints

    I saw on here on another thread where future floor wax will give the paint a luster or if you wish a semi gloss appearance. I know the paint I bought to use when the weather is stable enough to paint is acrylic based so it should work like he said it would . I did a test spot on the bumper and...

    Air Cleaner Modifications

    I really hope it works and makes a noticeable power increase. A friend on here has modified a k&m To fit his 816 but hasn't put the engine back to running order yet so we haven't been able to see if it is better or worse than stock. Keep us posted on your findings please..........

    Air Cleaner Modifications

    Ken I also have a 923A1 and mine has about a pint of oil in the housing and on the bottom 3rd of the filter. The oil is to trap any of the fine dust and dirt that may fall into the bottom of the can. Although this is not standard practice I feel it is a modification that was made in the desert...

    Height of a M923A1 w/super singles?

    Mine is 10 ft to the top of the tire rack boom. I have seen many shipped on here even two at a time on the drop bed frames so you shouldn't have a problem.

    Cargo Covers - how to bend?

    I did custom wood work for more years than I care to remember and Sparky had the best plan to resolve the issue. The only problem with steaming the wood is it is more likely to warp or flatten out in time due to humidity and heat. The laminated boards will hold their shape forever and with a...

    My newly aquired 86 CUCV M1009 transmission is going out.

    I am not and never will claim to be a transmission mechanic so I am of little help to you but, I had to tell you whom ever you bought the truck from sounds like a stand up guy. You are far luckier to have found him than the truck. Having said that you may want to use the same good judgment and...

    Why no Multi-Fuel engine?

    I have always suspected the main reason was due to the short life span of the multi fuel combined with the poor power out put. Even with experimentation of the turbo projects the power was at best marginal. I am sure some where in a little room that doesn't exist someone said enough of this and...

    M923 or m923a1

    Like Breach27 said the A1,s look cool and are by far the better tire for mud and sand but, this comes at a cost. The truck tends to float when you get above 40 MPH. To make matters worse the tires are almost impossible to balance. I also don't care for the fact that regardless of which tire if...

    My deuce

    Hi if it was me I would spend some time looking for a bed to cut down or find one already made like the 105 beds that may inter change. If you know a good welder or weld yourself it should be an easy fabrication to just add sides and a tail gate. Are you planning on going to the meet and greet...
