Posted this in another thread but think it is going to get buried and also don't want to hijack that thread. In reference to the Y feet for towbars (3/4 pins and 1" pins on the same foot). I've always had folks say the Y feet were removed from the system for safety however I've never seen a...

Anyone know what connectors I use on the wiring harness for the HMMWV for the 6.2L glow plugs? Want to switch the glowplugs from the spade CUCVs to the round HMMWV type. Getting tired of paying the high price for the spade types. I have 24 round types that have been sitting around for a long...

Saw 3 trucks up for auction. They went for nice prices. So who got lucky?

How rare are these trucks? I found one with basically surface rust, missing 2 tool box doors but still has the generator system in it and it works---so does the engine and transmission. It also has a winch on the front but I think this might be a bubbafication but not sure. Updating and...

I will be travelling on the I-10 to I-5 corridor around the 3rd week of September. I'm moving ATD's seats west and bringing back towbars. Going from the Sierra Blanca (El Paso) area to Tower Park via I-10 and I-5. Route has some gumby factor in it as long as it keeps me along that same...

The transport of the seats that Atankersdad is selling is leaving before the Sunday (August 11th) morning light. If anyone else is wanting them transported out to San Antonio, I need to know immediately. PM me. Here is the sales thread on them but they are 200 each. I brought extras out...

As you can see, I had a leak between the back 2 cylinders on the head gasket. Need to know if I will require grinding of the head and/or cylinders. If possible, I want to slap this back together until I get a spare engine I can rebuild and swap.

When I swung by Warthogs on my way to Aberdeen, he gave me 4 MRE ration heaters to sell for the Gene Vance Jr Foundation (see my tag line). Each sold for $50 a piece plus we are throwing an addition $50. So $250 to GVJ. Thanks Warthog!

I know there were some trailers sold at GL in the west TX vicinity earlier this week. IF anyone out east bought these, I could bring that east with me. My route is flexible. I do have to go through Oklahoma City and Carthiage, MO. At that point, I have an option to go to Atlanta or to...

Title will hopefully catch unnecessary future posts and let folks know what is going on and how to repair it. So I had what appeared to be oil in the drivers side floorboard. Some might first think radiator or oil leak. The fluid is too clean for my oil and it is too oily for antifreeze so...

The hydroboost replacement with the Cardone 52-7248 on my M1009 was going soooo well----too well. Got the old one off, put the new one on. Went to bleed the system per TM, brake pedal goes all the way to the floor and won't come up. Went to the mfg website, says contaminated (the fluid was...

Gotta replace my hydroboost and since this is one the of easiest, most cost effective options I see, just want to verify if anyone knows of any better options and obviously validate this will work if possible.

Anyone know the most OPTIMAL size hone to get for doing the brake wheel cylinder on a deuce?

SO I CAN GET MY CAMERA!!! This past weekend Fi FI the B29 was in the air over El Paso (took off from the airport)....no camera. A few minutes ago 3 P-51's and a P-38 all took off together from the airport....no camera. This was my first time seeing and hearing a P38. I'm sure it was the...

Because Doghead is in my Doghouse for 40 days and 40 nights he will post from TM 9-2320-289-20P figure 32 and pages 32-1 and Index page I-109 so you can see what I'm talking about below. So as I posted the other day my truck starter conked out after cranking about 1/2 a second. Since it was...

I've had ongoing issues with my speedometer that originally was OK but then after a lub job while on the road it started going goofy and now outright doesn't work other than the occasioal bounce and on rare occasions reading the wrong speed (like 15 mph while actually driving around 50). I...
