    newer deuce

    I think ya'll are overlooking a large difference between the newer and older trucks: The newer they are, the fewer times some private has had the opertunity to work on it. The biggest problems I have had with the older trucks is that someone else has worked on them first. If anything can be...

    Hello.

    Do you happen to be one of the people who were on fire base Ripcord?

    Power switch

    You can remove the switch by taking off the knob and removing the nut under it. The biggest problem is space. It is extremely crowded under there and small hands help. Also, there is no way to get into a comfortable position to perform this operation. Good luck.

    M816 info and picture needed

    I don't think any two trucks have the spades mounted in the same spot. If you look at some pictures, you see them mounted every way possible. I believe the government just layed them in the bed. There is a diagram in the TM showing where everything goes. The tow bar just lays in the back...

    O Lordy

    Talked to the person responsible for the truck yesterday. They are planning to drive it from DFW to Louisanna tomorrow. However, they are having brake problems. I told them to have Memphis Equipment next day air everything that it could possibly be, so that they could have the parts when they...

    Ok, The Mystery Continues

    OK Is it possible to run out of threads on the studs?

    Ok, The Mystery Continues

    The most likely cause is still the head gasket. After you shaved the head, did you check to make sure that none of the bolts are bottoming out?

    m816 recovery from Richmond

    Good looking wrecker! There are a lot of rubber fuel hoses under the drivers floor. Most of mine were either kinked or cracked, or both. You need a lot of 3/8 and 1/2 inch hose to replace them all.

    A3 Air/Steering Issue

    I've never heard of anyone having a problem with this before. Your probably in virgin territory. If someone knows what company manufactured the "air-assist", maybe you could find a drawing from them. Can't be too complicated...............

    replacement parking brake pads

    If you were closer, we have a bunch of them. I guess we could put them in the mail. Would you be willing to make a donation to the Vietnam Veterans of America and pay the shipping?

    Lower radiator hose

    I used the NAPA hose. It had to be cut off about two inches on one end and about one inch on the other. Also, the bend wasn't quite right, but it worked and we were able to get it changed in about an hour and a half. It is a pain, but it can be done and the deuce was ready this morning to...

    Lower radiator hose

    Maybe it is my computer at work. I even posted a "thank you" here that never showed up. I looked at all of the threads in the search results, but whenever I would click on one of the links, it would take me back to the main page. Sorry if I upset anyone for asking a question that has been...
