On the subject of the late 60's/early 70's style wooden roof bows and steel corners....all my uprights are rotted/broken, as are the bows.
Should I just try and keep the metal corners, and cut my own wood?
Also, what sort of wood is recommended?
Just looking to save on buying a new/ TO set of...
are there diesel mil gensets available that are in the 3-5kw output range, that are good/popular/available/reasonable?
or is a civilian model more applicable in a smaller size range like this?
recommendations appreciated.....thx

Have any SS members "gone green" and converted to full WVO, or use a bio blend?
Wondering how the FI pumps hold up, what sort of dual tank setups are being used, and so forth.
TIA

Hey, curious...how'd the trans swap go? Did you get that done yet?
the 4-speed has got to be a great mod for the cucv. did you mention you also swapped gears?

I am doing more and more in-depth reading on the use of WVO, SVO, biodiesel blends, and so on (used ATF, used motor oil, among other things) for diesel-powered vehicles and equipment.
Mostly, I am interested in these options as a way to save money from overpriced fuel, but just as importantly...
I lost the old internet pages I had saved from several years ago, that had some great pics of the air-locker diffs used on the deuces exported to Norway.
I seem to recall that the old greensix website (now gone) had the collection of pictures, does anyone have some ideas on where to surf for...
Mike, how about another subfolder in this category besides Humvees?
Just thought this would be great place for all the FMTV's, as well as older deuces/five-tons/M916's/M1028's that are still in use in Iraq and Afghanistan etc.....
...my 2 cents....
Can someone send in a pic of a "stock" deuce with 1100-20's on stock rims.....as duals?
Someone seemed to have said there actually was a bit of a gap between the rear tires done this way....
If so, I'm thinking about running 10 of the 1100-20's since I've found a good source.
Plus, the truck...
I know some of you fellers (ken, mike, bjorn) have been doing the genset thing lately...
when I jumped into a conversation the other day, besides finding out about supply captain's M116/M101 trailer combo I could've swore that there was talk of some smaller MEP's might be available from a...
I have posted some pics on my album page here on the site, but I will leave one here to get you all interested.
Runs awesome. Nothing quite like a big, flat, air-cooled six to get you moving....think of it as a supersize Porsche motor!
Got more interior shots somewhere, when I get out to see...
Hello, all....
I have been reading with great interest Wallew's super singles exploits, and all the wonderful feedback.
Lost in the shuffle, perhaps, I wondered if anyone ran a jpeg or foto of an in-service M35A2 with single 1100x20 Michelins? NOT the 11x20 NDT's...I am not so sure but I think...
Hey all. Hunting for more reference photos all the time for shots of "desert deuces" as used in the field from both periods, 90-91 GWI and 02-06 GWII....would appreciate any private emails back or replies.

Just wanted to see if my Adobe reader capabilities were on target...this jpeg shows all the little assorted bits pertaining to NON-turbo multifuel exhaust, but it looks like a little bit of the tippy-top of the exhaust stack got cut off for some reason....whatever! The stuff I need is in the...
Hey, while I prepared myself for another potential snow day, I got to thinking about stuff I'm searching for.
Is anybody holding onto leftover NA exhaust parts from a conversion to turbo?
Or, more to the point, is anyone on the board willing to sell non-turbo exhaust stack, bend, and muffler -...
Just curious...my cab has never had that heater/defroster kit, nor a slave receptacle MWO done.
It's a 70 Kaiser, just thought I'd ask before I chopped into it and added these items.
Thanks!
Alright, we all know how nice it would be to have the time to get our shopping done...
I've been trying to shop for thisngs for my deuce for 3 or 4 years, and still haven't gotten it done (thankfully it's not the daily driver...yet)
Anyway, was talking with the "better half" and she was...
Sorry, no pics of my deuce from this PC's harddrive, but wanted to introduce myself to the board.
I am a third grade teacher from northern virginia, and I have a 70 kaiser (just like my signature says!) and until recently, also had a 73 M151A2 (hope you are using it in movies now, Jeff!)
