Doug that is great to hear I look forward to seing the old girl, sure looks nice in your pics! It looks like I am still in the game at Sparta but with 5 hrs left of the Auction that could go fast, if this one doesnt happen I am considering just buying another decent Deuce and putting a S-280...
Doug that 109 is a beauty are you going to drive that to the MN Get together in June? I have a bid in on one also from Sparta but by the look of it I think i am going to get passed by because of price but if the heavens smile down and I do end up with it I sure hope even close to as nice as...
Hello GE I have been foloowing your thread and find how the 109 is put together rather facinating, those things are built tough, You have done a huge amount of work on yours and its turned out beautiful, I have bid on a 109 at a GL this week and I may likely get left behind because of the prices...

Good Morning Folks I have a couple decision to make here and am asking for a small assist in thme concerning purchasing a 1970 M-109A3. I am very familiar with the Truck and chassis components having already restored my M-35A2 so I am very good with that part BUT I have NO experience with the...
Thanks guys the trailer is being towed by my pickup here ONLY to get it home from this point forward the Deuce will be pulling it, hopefully it will be level when hooked to that!

Yesterday Bighurt delivered my NEW (to me) M-105A2 trailer and I have to say I think I really got lucky on this one. Its 100% complete all new tires, air lines and electrical connections, it came with all bows and side boards pictured and also included a near perfect cargo cover. I towed it...
biggles I am very sory to hear about his happening this is something I will NEVER understand what would posess somebody to feel obligated to destroy other peoples stuff? Its not like they were just lookings for stuff to steal but they took the time to wreck your property Again I am sorry to...
Good Morning Glen, the truck looks as beautiful as I remember it and I DO like the smoke a lot, last parade I had to add two gallons of oil to my fuel to get any smoke out of it. I did not realize that your FDC was bypassed? did you do that or was it like that when we picked it up? I am...

60 ft pounds for the adapter plates and 1.25 turns of the filter after gasket contact with adapter plate. I would also strongly suggest a nice coating of oil on the filter gaskets prior to installing, you will like them John did a very nice job on this kit

good grief guys I use the word "BEAST" effectionately in reference to 5 and 10 ton vehicles and that word does nothing to describe this one! With my limited vocabulary the best I can do is WOW!
