    What have you done to your MTVR today?

    Most likely not any kind of Recon. We put all sorts of stuff on our vehicles - except when some geek of a Commander got his girl bits tied up in a knot and put a halt to it. It’s hard to really make out the picture but it looks like it could artillery cannon tubes.

    AMMPS MEP-1030 5KW Generator List of Part Numbers

    I just acquired 50 flat washers, NSN: 5310-01-617-7577 (P/N: A0345993). Someone is selling them for $45 each on eBay! Yikes!!!

    M35A2 Heater Options

    I suggest using a stand alone 5 gallon military style metal can (nurse jug). That’s great you got the fuel pump and control box! There’s a specific way to start these things or you could damage the flame detector switch or igniter. MOST importantly; be sure the exhaust is properly vented...

    Is it the end of the world? Latest GP auction prices.

    True. And engines & drivetrain components are constantly replaced - what’s an accurate mileage on those ?

    Is it the end of the world? Latest GP auction prices.

    A M1079 (or variant) went for $7900 yesterday. My jaw dropped at such a low price. The economy has been sinking fast. It’s almost at that point (a little too late for some people albeit) where, in my opinion, a lot of nonsense bidders will drop out / drop off. If that has we’ll see...

    M201b1 1962 revival.

    I would have flipped if you said “JB Weld it & send it”! People who said crap like that should be throat punched.

    I was extremely lucky; dumb luck at that. As I discovered & explored GP I stumbled on the vehicles. I bid on a m1083A1 - opening bid of $4300. Forgot all about it because I never expected to win. I checked my email the next morning and it was from GP saying congrats and to please complete my...

    Have you got any military stuff? You made the mistake of making eye contact - now you need to spill the beans!

    What to proactively replace from yermo auction truck that has been sitting?

    Look over hub seals and transfer / transmission seals; if leaking replace. Otherwise do regular inspections to stay ahead. You’ve got a good plan. May I suggest that once you give it the ol once over that you don’t stray too far from home during the first 500 miles or so? That way you should...

    Increasing the air intake in a deuce

    I spent a considerable amount of time in the principals office - does that count as a one-room-schoolhouse? Lol

    auto trailer

    Uhaul denied me a trailer because my truck “wasn’t rated” to tow the trailer with what was going on it. While “BS” I understand why - they’re covering their butts and eliminating liability if someone were to tow with a vehicle not rated for that load and they are involved in an accident. Gun...

    Sf97 latest time frame

    I called and left a message this past Monday, April 4th. No one returned my call so I’ll try again today. The issue isn’t just with GP. DLA has not been totally on the ball either. Regardless - for me, this is beyond comical and in to the realm of ridiculous. Depending on what GP says today and...

    M-80/U mic wiring

    Try calling a company like Astrocom Electronics. They’ve been making this kind stuff since the 1960’s. They are located in Colliersville / Oneonta, NY.

    Increasing the air intake in a deuce

    As a power-adder, a turbo charges a cylinder with air. Boost is relative because a cylinder does not ‘grow’ as RPM’s increase. You press the throttle telling the fuel system to deliver more fuel to compensate for the load you are applying. The turbo, or supercharger, responds by increasingly...
