    Trying to find posting on LED taillights

    The original Grote LEDs did not have a load resister built into the light, and what happened was the flasher unit could not read the signal that was being produced by the turn signal control when activated. There simply was not enough amps drawn by the LEDs to cause the flasher unit to react...

    M104 CDN-3 purchases

    Feileod, That is correct. The 1/4 Ton, 2 Wheel Cargo trailer is an M101 CDN2, and look exactly like yours pictured. Here are a few more pics.

    CDN M101/US M416 trailer cover install

    Another source for these tarps is to buy direct from the manufacturer: GMA Cover Corp. Call them and give them the NSN on the cover. They still have them.

    Where to find the fiberglass boards?

    Agreed! I bought all my Duece sideracks from them. USGI too.

    pioneer tool rack

    I wouldn't use the HMMWV rack, as it is designed to fold up and down underneath the truck, like some of those spare tire arrangements on modern SUV types. You are better off using the standard M37/ Duece rack that is a solid one piece rack. It holds all the tools securely, and can be mounted...

    Flasher Problem

    Thanks fro the replys fellsa. I think it is the flasher unit too. The nice thing about the military vehicles, unlike commercially made brand cars, is they're relatively easy to fix and work on. Heck, My '10 JK wrangler needs to go and get plugged into all kinds of computer diagnostic...

    Flasher Problem

    As the title states, I have a flasher problem. Let me explain what I have... I replaced my front markers, b/out headlight, and rear taillights with Grote LEDs, about 18 months ago. I have had no issues with them, they work great and are nice and bright. Recently (like within the last month...

    Pics of my Deuce.... and girl

    Looking good Progun! Both the artistic value of the shot, use of the flag to represent the country that gives you the freedom to express your artistic ability, and the lovely bride to be. Oh, and I almost forgot... The truck that helped secure these very freedoms I speak of above. Good Job!

    Speedometer non-functional - checked threads

    I had the same issue. One call to Saturn, and a new cable arrived the next day. Spent an hour or so, playing around, and snaking, then with a little help from a friend to keep the nut on the cab floor by the accelerator from spinning, and some time on my back of the cab floor to make sure it was...

    Looking to join the Deuce crowd

    I have the soft cab top, and no heater. I have no leaks, and drive the truck in the winter without issue. Sure it is colder than if you were driving with the heater, but once the motor gets up to temperature, the cab warms up just fine. I have driven the truck in windy 18 degree cold days, and...

    GILBERT 2010 Update

    My only day off is Thursday, next week. Will it be disappointing to go during setup to catch a looksse of the display vehicles? I don't know how many people will be there early- setting up.

    Any upcoming events on Long Island or Connecticut

    Dave, Welcome! There is a small meet at the Glen Head American Legion, just off Glen Cove Road, on the 19th. Might be a little far, but then there is also, the three clubs on LI to look into joining. They usually list the events that are upcoming, and is a great way to network for vehicles &...

    M103A3 Height Question

    You can always pull a 1/4 ton too. Just add a lower receiver hitch, and it will work fine. I did for my M101 CDN2, and not only have I pulled it several hundred miles already, but it doesn't look that much smaller.

    Mother and child killed by military truck

    Another blatant example of how the media twists the facts to sway public opinion. DO NOT TRUST WHAT THE NEWS REPORTS.
