"Where to connect questions" to my opinion are from the time of E-mail. When I started to work on MV, I had no Internet, no Intranet, most the time even no comon or the related OM part 30/40/34/44/ or what so ever level. Simply means: to make the money I by that time needed to survive I had to...

I'm bored with reading me throught all the statements, anyway I did read most of them. I for my side see the following result, which everyone going to MV meeting should know in advance: 1. Bring all the shelter you probably need by yourself! 2. Bring all the food you might need by yourself (If...

Ahh, sorry, not 1987, 1997!. Due to a active pilot I had acces to the filght line and had the oportunity to see some aircrafts like the F15 close up, a C 17 also from inside, a B25 Mitchel, a B17H Flying Fortress, a Super Constallation, a C130 J also from inside, a C47 privately owned, a F6F-3/5...

Hallo Ulf, dein ehemaliger Mog ist in recht gutem Zustnad, jedenfalls optisch. Der Leo 1, das ist doch der von Sigi Zöllner oder was. War das in Regensburg? So nebenbei, deine eingestellte Bilder kommen mir irgenwie bekannt vor. Sind wir uns schon auf Treffen begegnet? Ulf, for the non German...

To my information the 50 numbers were in use for the communiction platoons. So I think this truck was truck number 4 in the communication platoon and therefore carrying a radio shelter. These markings were on the front and the rear bumper, definetely! Your colour scematic shows that it must be...

The last time I saw a flying P51 was 1987 in Oshkosh at the filght days over there. Wolf

Why this DAF is called Magnum, which is Renault? Wolf

jasonjc, the info is correct, as long as in the depot maintainance they cared for the correct frame for the correct body. To my experiance they did not do. So Roger, lets hear what you really did find. Wolf

Is it a M416 or a 416A1. Replacement hitch rings should be available from scrap trailers. As it is a M416 the stock number is 2540-732-8311 called coupler(lunette) drawbar, ring 7328311 (19207). For the M416A1 I do not have the manual, so I can not help you with the numbers. Hope this helps. The...

If it should be your glow plug relay, replace it or your glow plugs sooner or later will be shot. Replacement might become a nightmare. The computer card of the glow plug controll is NOT made for longer actuation and will give up its limited live soon. Wolf

I somewere have a 44 and some very early 50's version. However, in some basics, they are common. Mainly the unit descriptions and related markings changed. Korea gave some cut in marking. And I have a version for the early 70's and one of the mid 90's. However, all in paper or as a very big pdf...

My M1009 did NOT have this bracket, no holes in the floor. So it is wrong to say every CUCV had it. My M1009 id toke part in Desret Storm and was surplussed in 1992. Used it for 14 years and 231,000 miles befor it was eaten of by rust, no change to repair by a realistc time frame so sold it...

Hey Bad_carp, you built something which US-Army batallion commanders had built for themselves (or better let built) in the 70's in Germany. That was the time after Vietnam and in the cold war, when they fit any vehicle to their rquirements. I have seen M109 with simelar equipment (except...

O.K., I was wrong with the modell year of the change of the hub nut. Anyway I think it was a usefull advice. Normally seals are set with a special tool to install then without demage. However, who has that on hand. So a peace of wood or something simelar of course will do it. Normally the job is...

kvflyer, I do know that some trucks were without governer. And I do know that with the engine at 4000 rpm the truck runs something close to 75 mph. However, I think it is not made for that. And if you rode the truck that fast by that time, it was somewhat illegal, except you have been considered...

The black wire on the left side is black with a white line in it. It is the seat belt switch line to shwitch of your seat belt light. The ones from the shifter is for the 4WD light. Adapters from the single prong is for jump start, the "pig nose" is the old NATO stile. Adapter come in Germany...

The hub nut tool is a standard chevy part, as mentioned above, for the 1/2 ton rating. Must consider you MY, there was a change in 1986. But the part shops do know that. Bought mine years ago just with mentioning Blazer K5 MY 86, August and got the correct part. Remove the inner seal: For you...

Nice helper! Do not worry if the crane works slow. That is Army stile for safety. I have a little helper in my barn. sometimes they are very usefull. The steel beams have a weight of 290 kg each (or 640 lbs). Wolf

kvflyer, thanks for the photos.:grin: Do you know that photos of the M715 in regular service in Germany are very reare. Most of the M715 series trucks were stored in depots. Also your truck in Blanding looks nice, even the front bumper is bend a little. Interesting: The truck in Germany was with...
