Take the little trailer. I've moved a bunch of those things by hand. If it is stripped, it ain't too bad, if it still has all the junk in it, then it can be heavy. I use big ratchet straps on each corner to winch them up.

soft top frame parts needed
I am going through all of my trucks trying to see what all I need to get them complete and running and found I am just a few parts shy of having all the tops I need. I need 1-2 of the cab bows as shown, and the part that goes from the door post to the windshield for...
Tow bar ends
I have no idea what these could be used for, but if you are like me, you like to fabricate stuff that didn't previously exist. I sold the tubes off a medium tow bar set and had these ends left over, $20 for all three if you can come up with a use for them.
Tow bars stuff
I have a few long medium tow bars with double (3/4" & 1") feet, $200. I have one with big feet, $175.
I have one medium adjustable with 3/4" feet left. It has the three 1" pins to connect the bars and feet, but they are not correct pins. They are military tow bar pins, just not...
M818 5-ton parts
I am about to strip this truck down to the frame. Most all parts are available.
Complete winch kit, PTO, bumper extensions, linkage/lever, everything but the winch drive shaft, $750.
Heater kit complete, $100.
Battery boxes, $20 each.
Good transfer case, $250.
I also have...
Odd wheel
I have this oddball heavy duty wheel and I have no idea what it fits. I don't need it, but maybe somebody out there is just dying to find one. It is a 15" split rim, looks to be for a dually (deep offset hub), has 6 bolts and has a ridiculously heavy 10.00R15 tire on it which is...
Clinto, I'll take the 900 tubes, and possibly some of the cargo top kits. I may have a new passenger door for you, let me look next time I am at my shop.
I just scrapped a couple of M101A3 surge brakes recently, so I may have some parts if you have something damaged, like the arms or cylinder or whatever.

A few things I am interested in.
I am interested in cheap 900's, 1100's & 1400's tires.
I am interested in cheap troop seat staves and corner bows.
I am looking for some metal M101/M105 trailer top bows.
I need a M105 front landing leg swivel section. I have the jacking leg with wheels, just...
There is a really straight clean M1008 in a junkyard near me. Let me know what you'd be willing to pay and I'll see if he would take it and if we could find a ride going up there.
Gimpy,
I love the last picture in your post. It looks like the truck has an elephant tail:)
Yes, the purpose of the post was to remind us all about the potential consequences of safety negligence and to provide general info. on a military vehicle related event. The bad thing is, this guy...
I have come up with several temporary solutions to no lights before. My favorite was buying some cheap small LED flashlights and pulling the covers off my tail lights and sticking them in there and then replacing the covers, made great running lights in a jam. Many ways to rig something up just...
Anyone who knows me knows I run under the radar and push the limits a lot, but I try to be safe in general terms.
I got a call this morning from a fellow military vehicle lover, not a SS member, not well liked, but has been to a GA rally before. He said he was in a wreck last night in his...
I have been there several times to pick up multiple M101's. They had a huge loader/forklift to pick them up and set them on my trailer. I am very confident they do. The thing I like about that site is it's off base, so no hassle/dealy with getting in. Member SandCobra is there too if you need...
