OK, I was driving my new M931A2 yesterday when it stalled. I was doing about 15mph in 1-3. After stalling, it refused to start. The starter was turning and the batteries were solid. It definitely seemed like a fuel issue. There was plenty of fuel in both tanks. Unfortunately, we had 10" of...

Yesterday I recovered my M1101 from Ft Drum, NY. I spent about four hours reading the forums leading up to my trip. I found a lot of useful info and a lot of "can I recover my trailer with a <insert vehicle>" threads. Gathering info from multiple threads, my recovery was a success. I hope...

I should have listened to clinto and wreckerman when I came to SS inquiring about getting a deuce three years ago. I now have three deuces and M108 and a new to me M931A2. http://www.govliquidation.com/auction/view?auctionId=7072603 I'll be spending my time, while awaiting my EUC, pouring...

Well, almost two years ago I bid on my first deuce and accidentally won two. Now, I accidentally bought an M108 wrecker... I'm NOT addicted, everybody needs a wrecker, right? I wanted to stick to a MF engine and was comfortable with the deuce and half. I didn't want to worry about Class B...

Is anyone going to attend the Peach Music Festival Aug 10 -12 at Montage Mountain in Scranton, PA? THE PEACH MUSIC FESTIVAL I've purchased the RV pass, camping pass and three day passes for me and my lady. Looks like it's going to be a lot of fun. It would be nice to see other MV's in the...

My deuce has a leak in the copper line connecting my airpack to the air tank. Has anyone replaced that line with air brake hose or anything other than copper? If so, what OD did you use? Thanks Mikey

I need to check the tcase in my deuce. The drain plug seems to be non standard. It is a 4 point hole but my 3/4" rachet is too big and my 1/2" is too small. Is this a non standard size or just stripped? I ask because I have the 5 point, non standard drain plugs on my transmission, so it...

So, Kyle (blackrock on SS) couldn't get rid of his 11x20 ndt's on CL and I wanted to upgrade the 9x20's on my deuce. It was a perfect match. I went down to Phoenixville, PA and picked up 13 11x20's for a few cases of beer. I must say, Kyle was one **** of a nice guy and his shop was very...

Looking to see I can get some help from the SS express. I need 11 11x20 NDT's transported from Phoenixville, PA to Lakewood, PA (zip 18439). There is not deadline, but the sooner the better. I'd be happy if I could get them as far as Scranton, PA if possible. If anybody might be taking that...

I've searched SS and cannot find the answer. I'm looking for 11x20's for my deuce and I am finding some that say "Pneumatic tire" and others that don't say pneumatic, but that's not to say they are not. Is there a difference? Are my stock 9x20's also pneumatic? I'm looking for the stock NDT...

Making a new landing pad for the deuce. I was amazed by the power. I know I shouldn't be amazed, but it is just awesome to drive. I love this truck more each day.

I bought a double gun mount kit from Saturn Surplus for about $46. I had it installed and ready for the range in under an hour with only one extra hole. Some days I just can't believe it's legal to own such an bad a$$ piece of history. Mikey

I have a cover, bows and troop seats. Yet, this weekend I stripped her down to paint the bed and I have to say, I love how my deuce looks with nothing. Not to mention it was a dream to drive and park like this. How do you guys prefer to dress your deuce? Mikey

My fuel tank is leaking. I am going to replace it Friday. I bought a tank from Kublo's Surpluss for $80 without the pump. The process seems simple, a whole 4 pages from TM 9-2320-209-20-3-1 (4-29 - 4-32). Are there any suggestions, tips or tricks you guys with experience can provide me...

What a crappy day. While installing spin on fuel filters, my fuel return line broke at the filter end. The brass piece broke which attaches to the threaded brass end. Can the end be repaired / replaced? Do I need a new fuel return line? Is there a NAPA part# for the fuel return line or do I...

I have ZERO bodywork experience, so be nice... My fiberglass troop seats need some work. Overall the seats are in decent condition, but the fiberglass is a bit rough (surface cracks) in some areas and just handling the seats makes you itch like a mad man. Can I just prime and paint them or...

I have been searching the TM's for literally three hours and searched SS as well but need some help. I need to change the tranny fluid in one of my deuces which was topless for years. She spits steam so I'm confident it's got some water. I cannot find a TM that explains the process. I find...

I know the topic of insurance has been covered a lot. I read on here from several NJ members about Condon Skelly so I called and got a quote. Each time the topic of Condon Skelly appeared there seemed to be an abundance of questions about the limits and coverage. From my conversation with...

OK, rant first... so I got my two Arizona titles today and spent 2.5 hours in DMV for nothing. First I was told the VIN was wrong and I could not use it. I referenced the VIN# on the Arizona title in the lady's hand and she called her manager who proceeded to tell her that it was fine because...
