Light control switch went bad somehow. A quick change out to a new one fixed the problem.

Replaced a badly corroded washer pump on the M1152A1. I thought it should take 20 minutes, and it would have if I was smarter. But I spent 30 minutes trying to reseat the self locking retaining ring inside the washer tank before I realized I could just chuck the ring and risk a leak since it...

Oh definitely. Anything coming out of Yermo or Albany is a gamble.

This isn't a hypothetical. So let's say you were going to buy a parts truck and cannibalize it for hard-to-get spares. Currently I am thinking that I may do just that. And let's say your driving truck is a late model ECV/REV B. Assuming you didn't have space to store the truck more than...

Pics of the turret mounted MK19 that goes with these or it didn't happen.

So hypothetically speaking: if I buy a non-runner M1151A1 for parts, what can I sell the complete slantback for?

Sell the slantback and make your money back, then scavenge the truck for what you want. Who did you use for shipping?

So I'm not the only one daft enough to use a HMMWV for snowmobile hauling. Me and the bud, up in the Rockies after riding the machines.

A morning drive to the airport 20 miles east of town to get a friend. (Traffic jam is because there is a snowplow ahead of us)

Rico sells them. Or eBay.

That metal part is the dikfer off the exhaust system.

my buddy did his with used motor oil. I just wanted to be a little more environmentally friendly.

Since we have some shipping expertise, what’s the best way to send a pallet of parts cross country? I have a 48x48x48 crate containing an OGPK setup that’s in Florida and that I need to send to Colorado. I have no experience with LTL services, should I just use T-force (old UPS service) or...

I think you need to buy a second non-runner truck at auction to get one economically.

My local lumber place didn’t have any marine or treated plywood. So it’s regular plywood but treated with oil based water sealer so it should hold up for a few seasons. And should be easy enough to change out if it rots, just transfer the rubber guides over to a new piece and bolt in.

That looks good - too good! I might suggest an orange tip for the front to help avoid any potential law enforcement interactions!

I completed the conversion of my M1152A1 to winter snowmobile carrier. I had previously laid down wood and new D rings with bolts and installed rubber guides for the snowmobile. Loaded yesterday and all is good.

Not all drivers are equal. If you are not going to pick up yourself, then get one who knows how to eyeball your new truck, make sure it matches the auction description, and knows how to secure it properly. Example: It would suck to have your new truck arrive without the X doors pictured in the...

Truck sold cheap, there were a lot of good parts there even if it was a non-runner.

Thanks that helped me find it - one on ebay now. https://www.ebay.com/itm/354307064133?campid=5338767525&toolid=20006 Don't need it or even want it, but I thought it was curious.
