My MEP-003A came with a complete pickup assembly. The hose appears to be original and is definitely hydraulic hose. The metal braid is covered by a very tough fabric.

I have bought two gallons of DOT 5 from two separate MV parts dealers in the past year. The first purchase was $30.00 a gallon and the second was $35.00 a gallon. I don't have the suppliers names in front of me, but can post them later.

The entire trailer appears to be 100% stock, including the plumbing. It looks almost new.

I believe you can repair the trailer and no one would ever know if it is done right.

I have an M149A2 water buffalo (USMC) manufactured in 2000 and i am trying to identify the bracket in the photos below. The bracket is attached by one bolt to the left side of the crossmember running between the front frame rails. It is oriented to the left, but this may not be correct. It...

It would take a lot of gauges to garner enough Ra-226 for nefarious purposes. The gauges in question have Radium-226 paint on them to make them glow in the dark. As long as the gauges aren't tampered with, they are safe. You don't want to be opening them up and getting the material on your...

Congratulations on the recovery of a good looking Deuce!

I purchased a spark plug cleaner a few years back and it cleans them up nicely very quickly. You can get a lot of miles out of them using a cleaner.

Why not just use the standard military plugs?

Don't wait - - get another MV.

Clinto, If you do decide to have a raffle, etc. I would recommend running the idea by the DA in the county. If the DA provides approval, it is most likely OK. I would be nervous doing something like having a raffle in GA without knowing for sure.

I drive mine 3 - 4 times a week, but only occasionally to work. Usually to town and back at ~25-30 miles. I've been getting around 10 - 11 MPG running straight diesel, which is an improvement over the mileage when I picked it up about a year ago from GL. Keeping the tires inflated to 50 PSI...

Glad to hear you got it fixed!

Not to get off topic, but that is one nice TR3 in the photo. Is it an A or B? Braking with the extra weight was my main concern regarding using the M105A2.

I have my MEP-003A on an M116A2 trailer, and it pulls very well, either behind my Deuce or behind my Ford pickup, although I agree that the M105A2 is a very sweet trailer to pull. Putting the GenSet on an M105A2 trailer places the weight so high as to rule out pulling by conventional pickups...

If used correctly, you can get a large number of uses out of an ether bottle. The cost per shot is not that great. In addition, ether should only be used if needed. I have used ether twice in the past year, and only one shot was needed the first time and two shots the second time. As others...

The transfer case popping out of high range is not that uncommon. I've seen at least two deuces with the lever tied in high range with a piece of rope. I've also seen some previous posts describing what causes the X-case to jump out of gear. I think you'll find some help if you perform some...

I paid $2400.00 at auction, plus 10% commission, but no taxes for my 1969 M35A2 W/W. I was lucky in that most tires were relatively new, almost new batteries, brakes were great, cargo top almost new, all bows and seats and hard top in good shape. After one year, lost 5th gear and replaced...

Ditto on the re-gearing. It's not that hard.

I tried taking the lug nuts off my Deuce when I first got it with a 1/2" CN impact wrench with 1/4" air hose to the gladhand and the nuts wouldn't budge. I upgraded to 1/2" air line and two came loose. I then spent some money and got a 3/4" CN impact wrench with 1/2" line to the gladhand and...
