    New to the group and want to find out where my M1009 came from

    86K is a USAF number. Look for any paperwork or unit stickers in the glove box.

    Please clean your chimneys

    The only way to get rid of the creosote is to REMOVE it... Converting it clogs the chimney, and that allows CO and other nasty gases into your home. Call a professional chimney sweeper to have it done correctly. I go to a lot of chimney fires with my fire dept, and the best way to prevent...

    Please clean your chimneys

    No, they don't, not like the website says they do.. Well, perhaps under lab conditions, but all bets are off in real life. We took them off our apparatus (Fire trucks) years ago. The only REAL way to avoid chimney fires is get your chimney cleaned out by a professional..

    M923a2 lights failed

    Yes, it is plug and play, and eventually fails, no matter how well it is grounded. If it fails in a spectacular way, your truck's wiring also catches fire and melts/burns.. They SUCK! Do a search, you will see.........

    Fuel Tanks A2 type

    Keep your eyes out on ebay for the part. Beltfed34 on ebay is where I got mine for 30 or so. Or you can grind off the 2 tabs for the old style parking brake. You can only do this mod if you have the parking brakes on the 1/2 shafts.

    Fuel Tanks A2 type

    Yes, I have. You need the new A2 style mount, but AMG has them instock and cheap. Easy to do. But it cant be done if you still have the "original" style the parking brake on the driveshaft. A good thread about it here. http://g503.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=63&t=102453 Part #10 in the...

    Handle looking things on frame??

    I have asked that question to the trailer experts at TACOM, where they are the be all end all experts to anything military trailer related. And they didn't know.. No kidding, that's the 100% truth.

    HMMWV Body Panel Tooling

    Unless there is a specific part that people need and will pay "non surplus" prices for, I don't see it being profitable. Look at the A2 fuel tanks that flooded the market (just like the windshield frames) that were selling for $100 brand new or less. I replaced my tank just because I got a...

    I never saw the upper picture type in my time in the Army. But we had the lower type, and a third type that had the smaller rubber part of the lower picture integrated into the larger piece.
