    M880

    Data plate looks legitimate, I suspect you have a truck that the Navy bought after M880 production ended in 1978, and since it was equipped just like a M880, Chrysler stamped that on the data plate. M880s were 1.25 ton rated, even though they were 3/4 ton trucks in civilian trim.

    ECO Hubs Off Road on our M1078A1

    Oh you would be amazed at the test requirements that each truck had to go though at Sealy. The QC guy told me there could be no drips or leaks of any type after the test course was run.

    ECO Hubs Off Road on our M1078A1

    This video kinda justifies why the FMTVs came with the reduction hubs originally. I doubt the truck could climb those grades with 5000 lbs onboard and towing a loaded M1082 with ECOs.

    I want to say hello and thanks.

    Welcome. Those are great RT forklifts, the Army seems to have bought a huge number of them and they got very little use. Post up parts sources as you find them, not exactly sure what all happened with Hough/International/Dresser over the years.

    ECO Hubs Off Road on our M1078A1

    C. Jim and Joseph should be damn proud of the capable truck their company created.

    My buddies Ham Shack back up power.

    How is he ventilating the room to remove all the engine rejected heat? Also, highly recommend a carbon monoxide alarm/shutdown.

    Next Dmax conversion.

    This a Copart buy? Chevy kinda looks fixable.

    Gasser help

    Suggest you ditch the troublesome Holley 885 for the military Zenith replacement that came out in the 70's.

    S89 B/G Comm Shelter for M37

    Come to find out, my shelter is a S-46A used with the AN-GRC46 A, called the "lightweight shelter". You have a S-89B/G. Sorry for the false lead.

    Uh oh. I suspected this, the door on my shelter is different than yours. Back to square one.

    My M149 Water Buffalo. What do you do with yours?

    A lot. Takes 4 people to couple the older one with the big wheel. Data plate says 385 lbs.

    Looks like a great find. Still has the blackout drive lamp bracket. Yes most WWII Jeeps that have lived outside have bad bodies, 80 years in the weather is a long time for thin sheet metal. Hope you can bring it back like you have with the 151s.

    What is this and what should it be connected to?

    JK, it’s the power steering reservoir

    What is this and what should it be connected to?

    That is the nitrous cylinder for your diesel nitrous injection system. Need to hook it back up to the air cleaner to work.

    Korean War Jeep flashlight holder....?

    Flashlight holders came on armored vehicles only. Not to say someone repurposed one to a Jeep back in the day.

    Well I have two, they are the same as the older ones, with the exception of having the coveted dual circuit brakes. And being newer. And having drop sides.

    MTVR MK23 Transfer Case Info

    The seal should have a number on it, a bearing house can usually source any seal. If it turns out to be some kind of proprietary part, they can come up with a seal if you provide the retainer ID and shaft OD and width of the seal.
