    Official 2014 SS Georgia Rally Amateur Radio / Communications Thread

    Hey, The M151A2 would have my extra PRC77 manpack and a GMRS hand held tossed in the ammo box/console. Still having issues with the speaker on the AM2060. Got so ticked off messing with it one day I haven't even fired it up in 6 months! LOL! Yea, I got that cheesy S3 plastic grill, no sweat if...

    New summer project! "Rosie"

    I'm fixing to put the 1/3 black on my MoD 109 this weekend. It'll drive you nuts looking for an "official" UK camo pattern like the US does with it's camo patterns. I think it was pretty much a "slap some black on it" camo pattern! LOL! One of the guys I know is trying to bring a 101 to the Ga...

    M151a2 engine question.

    Little tidbit I found out. Make sure you chase the threads for the head bolts. The guys that mess with these engines say the head bolt threaded holes near the back of the block are sometimes short on threading. Something about the holes weren't threaded deep enough and the head bolts bottom out...

    2015 Aberdeen and Findlay shows -SAME DAYS!

    I used to go to the APG show in the late 90's while stationed up there. Nice show, kind'a stuffy, nothing to do but wander around. I can only imagine it at that Ripkin "museum" thing. LOL! Yea..... Pass.

    New to me M151A1

    Your front floors look better than mine did! :smile: Get with Guy, he has great panels at a great price. There's a guy on 838 had some battery box floors in the for sale section. These trucks were put together with a few spot welds and flat panels so they are fairly easy to repair.

    1st M35A2 coming home in a week

    That's a sharp looking "68 Deuce! That looks like the old "tan" from the Gulf War instead of the new "sand" color paint. My suggestion is to download the -10 operators manual and go through it page by page next to your truck. There is a PMCS checks section that will ID critical before, during...

    My M35A2 Project aka Big Betty

    LOL! We used to do that in Germany! I had a thin plank running down the middle held with duct tape and the guys with soft cab tops always had pieces of mop handles in theirs to cut down on the flapping on those long hauls. Sharp Deuce! I miss mine from way back then. Tough old truck!

    M151a2 engine question.

    If you get the chance to get one then do. Yrs ago I thought I wanted a WWII jeep..... till I tried sitting in it! Looked for an M38A1 but they were all rotted from running back and forth in the swamps or Bubba'd and they still wanted too much. I literally fell into my A2 by luck. Stone cold...

    M151a2 engine question.

    Not really. It's even in the manuals about leaving the choke out a bit. It's been beat to death about the whole needing a little choke on G838 by guys who have been messing with these trucks for countless years. Now if you need alot of choke then your idle jet is clogged or your idle mix is off...

    M151a2 engine question.

    I get a lil' smoke at startup only. I guess the stem seals might be a bit hard from sitting 12 years. I'm not worried about it, at least i know the valves' stems are well oiled. You'll get just a lil' bit of smoke on downshift slowdowns because of the high vac in the intake sucking oil past the...
