I need another M105A3 jack, the one that stows on the fender and is used to lift or stabilize the trailer (NOT the nose wheel/landing gear). Where can I find one?

One of the first things I noticed about my M35A2 was how thick the bed is. I just assumed they were all like that, but over the last two years of sometimes remembering to look at other ones, I have not seen another like it! Mine appears to be two pieces of 3/8" plate steel, all the others I have...

In the MilSurp firearm world there is a term for someone who gets hold of a fine piece of Military History and decides to "make it better": BUBBA. This is apparently what happens when Bubba gets his hands on a M101A2:

The coolant in my Deuce has turned a milky green/white color. It tested good to -25, and felt like the correct viscosity, just went milky. It was bright and clear for the last two years, this is a new development, and YES my oil is still black. Any ideas?

I lost the in tank pump on my M109, so I bought a rebuilt one from a friend. When I went to install it today I discovered that it is the wrong unit! I LOOKS like a Multifuel in tank pump, but the wiring is different. The old pump is hard wired into the top of the unit, the new one has a bayonet...

I picked up my latest trailer today, a M116A2 with a M101 box on it, and it has some extra "stuff" on it, can anyone tell me what was in the bed? My first guess is a gennie, but the things on the outside and the round thingie behind the little tool box sort of look like antenna mounts. There are...

I have a M116A2 trailer with a M101 box on it that I intend to convert to a pull behind camper for my M1009 (and whatever else:)), has anyone out there in SS land done this (and took photos)? I don't mean sliding in a S250 shelter, or building a plywood box in the bed, I mean scratch building a...

We had a pretty good turnout this year, despite the oppressive humidity! Four M35A2 (one "C" model), two M1009, two M38, two M100 trailers, two M416 trailers (one A1 model), and one each M151A2, M715, M38A1, M1010, MB, M274A5 and British Landrover Lightweight. There were enough burnt dogs, water...

I bought a trailer off of Ft. Hood in the auction that ended this week (event 5414), the fourth vehicle I have purchased through GL in Texas, and I have a tax question. When did GL start collecting sales tax on vehicles? I am a Texas resident, and the goods are in Texas, so sales tax would be...

I have a PRC-77 that I am using in my M1009 with a Mr.Haney 12v cig lighter adapter and a big green stick and I decided to get a British surplus Clansman RT-350 for a portable companion. I like the unit so far and am strongly considering adding a RT-349 and 351 to go along with it. My question...

M813RC, Reloader64 and I made the long haul to Topeka for the convention. I wanted to take my M1009 but summer heat and some mechanical nigglers put the kabosh on that idea, but I will do my best to make that happen next year! There was so much to see I am glad we stayed the entire four days...

Does anyone know where the best deal is for Trucklite rear composite LED lights? I am tired of messing with surplus ones that don't work properly and am going to suck it up and buy new ones, it's going to hurt... I am specifically looking for part number 07240, OD green, rear, no bucket. Anyone...

I got my NOS Canadian M101 (US M416) trailer cover in today and threw her right on... Did I do it right? I think the pictogram is telling me the lunette should be that direction? (even though the numbers are down side up)

I installed a set of surplus Trucklite Omnivolt LED tail lights on my M416 today along with a NOS wiring harness, thought you all might like to see the results. The harness went in easy, once I figured out which end goes in first! I had to put spacers between the bracket and the body to give...

I know it's no big deal to 80% of the US, but here in Central Texas we just don't see much of the flaky white stuff, I had to take some photos...

I have a question for the current and former Army Motor Pool personnel among us, really more of a request for an opinion. I bought a nice M416 the other day and it needs a little work (conversion back from civvie lights and new tires) and I am torn with the decision as to what direction I am...

The annual Boy Scout Parade and Report to State took place Saturday (6 Feb) and, since this is the 100th anniversary of the Boy Scouts of America, it was a huge event! Several SS members took part in the event: Sarge (M1003 M.A.N.), mkcoen M1010), M813rc (M813 w/M105a3), TexAndy (M35A2 w/w)...

I was poking around a friends yard yesterday and rounded a corner only to have my breath taken away by this beauty! I love the big girls, and she is about the biggest one I have seen with my own two eyes...

OK, auctions are over, what is the deal with these five modified M1009s? Who used them and for what purpose?

Here is a video a friend of mine made of the Liberty Hill Texas Christmas parade, featuring some SS members! Me (Pawnshop) with my M35A2 and M105A3 trailer (and a buddy driving my M1009), jeep-Jeep with one of his M35A2s, Reloader64 with his M35A2, M813rc with his M813 with M105A3 trailer (and...
