If you are looking for what I have on my M1009, it is the AS-1729 / VRC antenna. The base and attached spring bolt right on to the vehicle mounts.
I believe the NSN is 5985-00-985-9024 for the AS-1729.
I have seen other bases that might work, but the AS-1729 was a direct bolt on for my...
Lone Star Cars in Plano, Texas (a suburb north of Dallas) advertises CUCV's, both M1008's and M1009's on eBay. I went to the location last weekend to see for myself. I drove-up in my CUCV and they thought I was returning from a test drive!
He has 15-20 CUCV's in stock in various conditions. I...
Gentlemen:
So what weight engine oil are you running in your NHC 250 Cummins? 30W as the data plate and LO indicate, or as I would be inclined to do, 15W-40 Rotella T? I really hate to run anything different than the data plate and LO indicate, but I always run 15W-40 Rotella in my diesel...
Generators in Santa Fe, NM
Does anyone know what the generators sold for in Santa Fe, NM. I was watching the two 30kW MEP's and the last I looked, they were over $1,500 each. They both ran (with GL pictures of them running) and looked to be clean units.
Thanks!

TexAndy - I am currently going through the exact same process here in Denton County, although the ladies are super nice. After about four separate calls to the "special plates" department in Austin, they figured it out. Even though this is my 5th FMV to license as such in Texas (using both the...
Anyone near the Riverside, Woodcrest, California area that could go inspect and take pictures of a couple of military vehicles for me?
I'm willing to pay someone a reasonable amount, like $50 or so, if they would go to a specific location, and take multiple digital pictures of two different...

I'd trade for one of these, too!
... forgot to mention I'd trade for a LARC. My better half snapped these pictures of a LARC being transported just north of Denton, Texas on I-35E. 'not bad Blackberry pictures! Taken from my cherry Crown Vic Police Interceptor, by the way - note factory...
Fording Kits
Thanks all for helping deciphering my fording kits. P. 122 of my copy of "Standard Catalog of Military Vehicles" by Thomas Berndt, discusses briefly the M51A2, and of course the M51, and M51A1, etc. Seems as though the M51, M51A1, and M51A2 all used the same chassis. The M51A1...
Thanks!
Wow EZFEED!
Thank you very much for the detailed reply. 'sounds like a great plan to me, even though it will delay the installation, I will give it a try.
Thank you very much!
I know this forum knows....
I just took delivery of three NOS VRC antennas from the guy on eBay from Israel. They are NOS, by the way, complete with hardware, manuals, gasket, tie-down kit, etc. And, delivery to my door was in five days from Israel. Not too bad at all!
My question is does...

The search I used indicates the following. Unfortunately, this does not tell me which 5 ton...
Reply and answers to questions
All:
Thank you very much for all the posts and numerous PM's. I'll answer some of the common questions I have received.
1.) How much for the wrecker? Currently, I would prefer to work a package deal for both my wrecker and my M35A2C (as is) with someone...
I have to post five times to SS before I can post a classified ad, so the 5 ton forum will see my first post which will be similar to the ad I plan to post in the classified section (only 4 more posts to go!).
I am private owner and interested in trading the following, all of which I own and...
