A few more to choose from but doubtful it can compete with a Tank!!! Two of these were taken in October at Stella's Roadhouse where we ate during the Hardball Convoy this past year at the GA Rally to prove it's still a good looking truck after a few years of ownership.

My youngest Loves It and I'm Proud to say he named it Sarge!!! He named it Sarge because that's the Jeeps name in the Car's series of films. If you read "NOS USMC" in the CUCV Forum, you'll learn that we almost lost Sarge due some issues. Briggs was the trucks saving grace as he has been...

Let's go Sarge!! Original unmolested Marine Corps M1028 still under 7,000 original miles. Other than the Doghead Glowplug Bypass, still sitting on the original Firestone tires and the spare has never touched the ground. I'm going to cheat with my other photo upload!!!

That MK18 Trailer did not even make my M35A2 squat more than maybe a half inch. It was heavy though and the Deuce felt it!!!

Mr. Andy, I'm glad that you acknowledged Ron in your post. Somehow ya'll had some indifference leading up to the event and you posted earlier that he was uninvited. That played into some of why I was not there on Saturday because it's suppose to be a fun event with everyone getting along...

I just want to add that I would not use a P-19 Crash Truck to move a 5 ton with locked up brakes. The pintle is not very strong on these. We used to move them by hooking a scoop loader with a special attachment with a lunette ring to lift the back end of a P-19 to move it around. We've broken...

I got my starter rebuilt for about $40 bucks at a local starter / generator shop. I had busted the solenoid away from the nose cone somehow. I don't think my response will help the OP but to anybody else who has a starter problem on a CUCV, please try to get the original repaired by a...

Had a great time at the fish fry last night but due to some unforeseen last minute issues, I had to leave this morning. I'm sure I missed a great time and I hope everyone had a great time. I can't wait to see some more pictures as I forgot to bring a camera with me. My wife would like to add...

I'm cheating by taking my Trans Am for this trip but I should be there by 4 or 5 in the afternoon ready to work. Can't wait to see everyone. Perfect get together to shorten the span of the GA Rally get together. Does anyone know if anybody from Louisiana or anyone close to TimNTrucks is...

They are nice trucks. Look at the basics that you would check on any truck. Tires, fluids, brakes, blowby, etc. Look out for folks that point to a little triangle tag on the driver's door frame for a MWO or ¨Modification Work Order¨ for seatbelts and they try to refer to it as a rebuild tag...

If you read what was stamped into the dipstick, it says to wait about 2 minutes after shutdown to check the oil level. I agree that you should smell it to make sure you don't smell any diesel but if left sitting over a period of an hour or so, they read high on the dipstick. Also, mine will...

Do a search for ¨FDC Bypass¨ and see if this has been done to your injection pump. If not, try that and change oil, repeat trip and check oil. If it rises again, do a search for Hydraulic Head and you should see some threads about changing the O-rings that seal the Hydraulic Head to the...

The MTVR's never released the maintenance manuals in TM form that I'm aware of. They used a computer based program called ¨IETM¨ and I don't know if its for public release. I'll see if I can get some basics on the transfer at work tomorrow.

I gave 3dAngus a seized long style airpack last year at the GA Rally. He said he was going to try and rebuild it but I don't know if he ever did. He's a great guy to work with though and I'd ask him if he still has it.

Save 2 shirts for me guys. 1 L and 1 XL. Can't wait to see ya'll. I know I could flip a burger with my new FMTV Wrecker you fine tax payer's purchased for me to use on National Guard time.

I would almost agree to airlines crossed but the truck rolls backwards fine and the OP hears a solid clunk when shifting between a forward gear and reverse with the truck sitting still. He also has had success with the sprag engaging correctly in reverse gear. I just think there are some...

Do a search for ¨inner axle seal replacement¨ and you'll find a nice FAQ and picture thread showing how to tear down to the level that you need to accomplish your goal. You'll likely have to tear down both sides at the same time so that you can push a rod from the unbroken side to the broken...

Helped a friend install an inner axle seal on the passenger side of an M923. It's just like a deuce with the exception of air brakes and everything being a good bit heavier.

I agree with the above as the slave receptacle on these trucks hook to the battery cables at the source. If you can slave it off, that rules out the battery cables but does not rule out the battery connections themselves. They should be clean and tight. I've got a 5 ton in my front yard with...
