    An interesting read is the book One Second After by William Forstchen, fits right in with this discussion.

    I am after that same idea, what trailers has the 109 box been mounted to by others? I am just trying to learn from other peoples success and or mistakes before I make the jump.

    Got Snow?

    I moved from Ohio to Georgia to out run the stuff. However, if it gets any colder in Georgia I may have to learn to speak Spanish to stay warm!

    My deuce's arrived !!!

    There is a taco Mac at Mall of Georgia, and soon the Tilted Kilt will open their new location there. If you have never been to either of those restaurants you owe yourself a visit, and I will buy! Like I said, I have a lot of questions.

    My deuce's arrived !!!

    The one I keep will not necessarily be a restoration, it will have some modifications but nothing to crazy. Some modern comforts in the cab mainly, then maybe the wife will actually get within 10 feet of it!

    My deuce's arrived !!!

    These are my first MV's, so very exciting for me. Truth be told, if it was not for this site I would be completely lost. Do to my work facility, I should be able to work on these without to much trouble other than the learning curve. I am used to working on boats as a hobby, but they have...

    2 M35A2's from Forrest Park GA to Bufford GA

    I received notice yesterday, the 14th. I have never driven a deuce more than a few feet so I feel the tow bar is not for me. If I had any real experience I would take you up on the offer. These are coming from GL, so I do not know the road worthiness of them on top of that. If your wrecker...

    How many deuces on a trailer?

    Yes Paulbusmax, I do plan on getting rid of one of them. This is scary, I just received notice from Gl that my EUC has cleared on these trucks. The auction ended on Dec 2nd and I paid for them on the 3rd, 11 days for an EUC? I am in panic mode, I already had 2 M105's waiting for me at Ft...

    How many deuces on a trailer?

    Sorry about that. I meant a transporters trailer, and I don't have a specific transporter yet so I do not have a measurement.

    How many deuces on a trailer?

    I purchased 2 m35a2 W/W from Gl, awaiting EUC currently. It is only a 60 mile trip but I think transport is my best bet. Has anyone ever tried loading 2 of these on a trailer before? I am just trying to save a little money, I was not intending to buy 2 at once.

    Purchased my first MV, an M109A3 today!

    Yes it does run, starts right up. No brake leaks, minor leak at what I am thinking is the injector pump. It has both the cab and box heaters, boarding ladder etc. It also appears that all of the suspension control arms were replaced recently, they are OD and have no rust on them. I am...

    Purchased my first MV, an M109A3 today!

    I contacted him already, and since he is just up the road that is the most likely choice. The frame set is what I am lacking, anybody have one knocking around that they want to get rid of?
