There is going to be a big WWII mock battle and general Military History display this Saturday (18 October) at Camp Swift (between Bastrop and Elgin on 95). I will be out there with my Deuce on display along with 40 or so other MV's including 2 Shermans and some artillery pieces. Come on out! If...

I took the Deuce over to a buddy's house today for some seat time and while he was checking it out he decided to hit the horn, and that is when it decided to stick ON. I ran around and dumped the air tanks to shut it off. After some troubleshooting I determined the solenoid is stuck. I capped...

I saw this in the DRMO yard at Ft. Sam Houston today, it's slated for "donation".

I have decided to replace the copper fuel line that runs from the primary to the pump (clamped to the under side of the crossmember) with a rubber hose (laying on top of the crossmember) but I am having trouble finding hose barbs in the correct 3/4-20 thread, any ideas? I could make some with...

I am planing to run a 75/25 mix of WMO/pump gas filtered to 5m in my deuce and I was wondering if it would hurt to throw some MVO in there from time to time? I am not really looking for WVO to burn but if I come across some can I use it?

My truck has three voids where stickers used to live, I think I know two of them. The door is missing the "safe driver" sticker, and the bed is missing the "don't drop the gate" warning? Am I right?

I need a new fuel line for my deuce, the metal one between the primary filter and the IP that goes under the fromt cross member. TNJ-Murray list two different NSN's for a metal line with the same photo attached, which one is it? They show #4710-00-861-7073 and # 4710-00-861-7070 both with the...

Is there anything IN or ON my M35A2 that I should NOT blast with a power washer? My truck has a layer of Central Texas limestone dust all over her, inside and out, and I have access to a power washer, so I thought I would give her a bath. I think I can controll the outlet PSI so I won't go at it...

I found someone selling what are advertised to be corners for the cargo cover bows for an unknown "truck/trailer". I need them to fit a M105 and/or a M35A2. Are the corners the same? I know this info is SOMEWHERE on SS but my search Fu is weak! These are the corners in question:

My Deuce has a mix of wood and fiberglass slats on my troop seats, apparently the Army replaced the bad wood with fiberglass as needed over the years. I have a wood piece that needs replacing and would like to continue the trend, does anyone know where I can get one fiberglaqss slat? It will go...

Formup was at 0730 and parade start was at 0830, the weather was beautiful and I think the whole town turned out, WITH their children and grandchildren! Lonestar-MVPA was able to muster nine MVs for the event, 2 decked out MBs, a M38A1, two M37s, a M35A2 W/W, M813rc's 5 ton and Sarge's Gamma...

I just printed up my first SF-97 request form and the first page is easy, but I have no data plate on my Deuce so the info for the second page is going to be harder. I found the xxxx-xxxxx frame number so I assume that will do for the VIN#, the year and make are a bit harder to extrapolate, the...

My data plates are missing so I don't know who built my truck and when, but I did find the frame number and I have a number painted on the inside of each door on the access cover. the door number is : 4D5970 frame number: 0325 30313 The frame number is very lightly stamped but I am pretty sure...

My buddy Rory C (M813rc) and I went down to the GL yard ar Ft. Sam Houston yesterday to recover my Deuce. We get there by 1200, topped off the fluids and gave her a general inspection and were on the road by 1300 and in Cedar Park by 1530, in all a painless trip. Rory was driving the deuce and I...

I picked up my deuce today from the San Antonio GL lot at Ft. Sam Houston, will post some recovery photos tomorrow (after sleep:). The first thing I did was to uncover the bumper marking to try to determine the last unit to use her, this is what I found. The lot man told me he thought the truck...

Auction closed 22 May, EUC faxed 23 May, two requested revisions and a change of fax machine (they did not like the way my machine did it), sent to Battle Creek 5 June, my credit card was charged on 20 June! I have not received the paid invoice yet but I assume that will be on Monday. Not too...

I went to Ft. Sam Houston to recover some M16 squad bay racks and got to visit my Deuce (the EUC is still cooking) Took some photos and got to hear her run, fired right up!

I got to inspect my Deuce today while waiting for EUC clearance and noticed the front drivers side rear tire looks "funny", bulges on the sidewall, is this anything to worry about? The tires are all Firestone 1200x20s.

I got the chance to go inspect my Deuce today and I have a few questions, first: What is this thing on the cab, behind the pass side mirror mounts and next to the stack? It looks like it would hold a pole about 2" in diameter. I am guessing it is for the MG ring mount but there are no other...

I have a source for some WMO that has Amsoil and used ATF in it that I plan to use 50/50 w/diesel, any reason not to?? This batch is not 100% Amsoil but does have a lot in it. Can I burn straight Amsoil in a 50/50 dilution if the situation arises? I tried the search and found out that...
