    939 EUC's ? Months after auction???

    That's what I figured another gub'ment SNA*U (offending letter removed due to tender snowflake sensibilities). Guess Trump better start draining the swamp over at DLA also...

    939 EUC's ? Months after auction???

    What's up with this Y'all I just received the following email from GovPlanet Customer Service regarding the M934 that I got back in 2015: The following item’s Demilitarization Code has changed and the government now requires the completion of an End-Use Certificate (EUC) prior to removal of...

    Steering Wheel Puller That Worked and Did Not Destroy the Wheel

    How loud of a "pop" did it make when it finally broke free? When the wheel in my M934 finally broke free, it sounded like a gunshot...

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    Still fiddle-farting around with getting the cab heater installed in my M185A3. Seems that the flexible heater air hoses don't want to play nice and slip onto the defroster boxes. **** hard to get up under the dash to "reshape" the inlets with a sledge hammer. I did install a locking fuel cap...

    Auction date changes, MK48 and Hemtt recall

    Looks like they're down to "seeds and stems" on lots of the items in the upcoming auction. I'm wondering if the best "has been got" and everything from here on out will be "well broken in"? I'm also thinking that just about everything in Hawaii will remain in Hawaii unless Uncle Sucker decides...

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    Started prepping my M185 for winter this weekend by installing a NOS boxed heater that came with the truck when I purchased it. I've attached scans of the instructions if anybody else is getting ready to do this install. The SS Guru can move the scans to the appropriate location if he wants...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Same thing happened to mine except I was standing there as the last thread let go from all the shaking the engine was doing and hit the ground. They shake themselves loose after time even when you think they're tight. I reinstalled mine with some 'light hold' Loctite (blue or yellow maybe?)...

    $92 shutterstat fan clutch actuator

    Fan Shutterstat... Yes, it does make a difference which hose goes to which hole. Here's a link to the OEM shutterstat that Erik sells: http://www.eriksmilitarysurplus.com/enfanclairco2.html. Yep, it's pricey but I lucked out finding an OEM one on EBay for $90. There is a video on the site...

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    I replaced the seat foam and canvas seat covers in my M185 last weekend; quite an improvement for my bony backside. This weekend I started the install of the cab heater. I spend most of the afternoon trying to figure out what screws, washers, nuts, etc. went where and of course I was short on...

    Fake GM Water Pump?

    We're all in deep Kimchi if the Chi-Coms decide to cut off the supply of their 'products' to us. They're flexing their muscles everywhere throughout the world (like their island reclamation in the South China Sea) and they've got our debt and parts supply chain by the short hairs...

    Seat Foam Thickness

    I got a new set of canvas seat covers from Jatonka for my M185A3. Anybody that has replaced theirs, what thickness and type of foam did you use? My original stuff is trashed so it's no help. I'm thinking of some dense automotive seat foam in a thickness of 3". I figure it'll get compressed no...

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    Finally got two tires changed, one of which blew out on me down in Bryan at the Museum of the GI get together last month(?). If you ever have tire problems in Waco, limp over to Lone Star Tire at Hwy. 77 & Waco Dr. They're 1st come, first served, but they had me in and out in maybe 30 minutes at...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Where'd you find the new seat foam, an upholstery shop? I'm getting new covers for my Deuce and I need new foam for all 4, preferably fairly stiff foam. Thanks... Mark

    Need CDL to drive 5 ton in Texas?

    Here's what I just went thru to get a TX license to drive my M934 5-ton FMV 31600 GVW (NOT used for interstate or intrastate commerce and/or commercial use, just to legally drive a 5-ton FMV in parades, showing off, etc). You apply for a NON CDL Class B, the same license required to drive a...
