    Add Trans Temp Gauge. Where to Locate Sender?

    I installed mine in the pressure port. Works great. It probably isn’t as accurate as one installed inline a cooling line would be, but it’s close enough. Oil pan temps are almost spot on with gauge, using a infrared temp gun. Over three years now and no issues.

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    Welcome to Steel Soldiers Maybe a quick question but definitely not a quick answer. This isn’t the thread for your question. Start a new thread in the CUCV forum. Also suggest you download the free Technical Manuals available on this site as that will have a troubleshooting section...

    New to me M101A2 toy

    You are going to absolutely love that trailer. The best overall trailer the Military ever used, in my opinion. www.crofttrailer.com has all the factory parts for the surge brakes. HydroAct and Dexter/Redline. When properly fixed and maintained, the surge brakes work great and will last for...

    M101A2 shock replacement

    Looks like the 32283s are discontinued. Some are still on eBay. Figures. Find something that works well and they quit making it.

    Looks great! Truck almost looks too small against that beast. Are the ramps getting reinstalled?

    Trailer Towing Question: USAF H-1 Heater Trailer

    Glad to hear recovery went well. I agree that Murphy would have shown up if you towed it. Always seems to work out that way. Just start a new thread in Aux Equipment for the bringing it back to life updates and info.

    S250 Shelter is there a drain hole? If so, where is it?

    That info is also in the S-250 TM.

    DRASH Shelter Transport Trailer Remodel

    A nice little Honda generator or ?? will be perfect. I was joking about that generator on trailer with the shelter, as it would be way overkill in power, size and noise, etc.

    What did you do to your trailer today.

    Tan M101A2 Used my steel stamp kit and hammered the Trailer Military ID and serial number into the tongue frame. Data plates can be easily removed and/or swapped if trailer stolen. Pic just shows a portion of what was stamped. The steel the Military used is very high quality steel. It was...

    M1101 ?'s

    My two M101A2’s were galvanized at the factory and then painted. Beds, not the frames. Zero rust on the beds. Typical light surface rust on inside of frame. The M1101/2 will also be affected by salt. Aluminum will corrode. Sometimes a lot faster than steel. It hides it better. Then when...
