    Cab roof

    I like the looks of the canvas top and cargo cover but the vinyl holds up better if you keep the truck outside.

    Bring the chat list back to the main page!!

    Kenny, I don't know what Drew's thoughts are on it but Mangus hated it and I think he's the one that got rid of it. I'm in the mess hall right now, all alone.

    Winch cable lube

    Just looked at the tag on my new HMMWV winch. It calls for Amsoil MPHD http://www.amsoil.com/shop/by-product/other-products/cleaners-and-protectants/heavy-duty-metal-protector/ . I don't know if that's for all the winches but the tag on my HMMWV winch calls for the Amsoil product.

    Which Diesel Generator Would You Recommend or NOT Recommend?????

    All I can say is my mep-003 has done all I've ever asked it to, I don't have any experience with the others. I do know the air-cooled Onan used on the 003 is getting kind of hard to get some parts for. This engine has been obsolete on the civilian market for several years now.

    Which Diesel Generator Would You Recommend or NOT Recommend?????

    M923 Installed wet kit and Hoist with auxilary hydraulics

    Are you saying the winch valve is in free flow back to the tank when in the center position? This makes sense because it does power a motor in stock configuration but wouldn't work well at all with a hoist (hoist will fall when you want it to hold). You can pick up a tandem center valve at...

    Winch cable lube

    The military recommends a Amsoil product, it think. There is a tag on the winch line of my new HMMWV winch that tells what they say to use. The winch is not with me at the moment. I'll report back what the tag says.

    SF97 Question - Farm Truck Plates For Agricultural Exempt Owners

    I'm closing this thread as we all know where this is going. The OP just needs to contact his local DMV for answers on what is legal in his area.

    Reserve on auctions?

    That's what they are trying to do, retail prices without retail responsiblity. On the surface, it looks like you're buying a good item, but when you read the fine print, you realize that you may be getting a pile of parts. I've all but quit surplus buying. I'll still throw out a bid on GL from...

    Reserve on auctions?

    The surplus market as a whole is moving more toward a retail market.

    Converting 932A2 to Dump

    There are several options for this. Sissor hoist, dual ram, telescoping. Sissor hoist is probably the simplest but are the lighter duty of the three. The dual ram under the bed is a good option but I found when adding a dump to my deuce that the Rams would interfere with the front tandem...

    Converting 932A2 to Dump

    It can be done but there's a little more to it than just tying into the existing system. I do it right, you'll need to either replace your current winch valve or feed it with another valve with a power beyond port. The simplest thing to to would be to remove your current winch valve and replace...

    Need assistance identifying a truck and it value

    Macks are good engines but they are right up there with CAT as far as replacement part prices go.

    Installed a pyro, got a surprise!

    The cast manifold is pretty easy to thread, just drill it the proper size and use a good cutting oil and you shouldn't have any problems. I like to have the truck running when I drill and thread as to blow all the shavings out.

    Spicer 3053A shifting problems

    Back when I was selling deuces, I would show a truck to a prospective buyer that was used to modern manual transmissions and they would claim there was something wrong with the trans and couldn't shift it when I let them drive. I'd move over into the drivers seat and shift it fine. I'm not...
