Just caught this a few minutes ago and wanted to share with the Guys from Wisconsin: Support sought for laws impacting Wisconsin HMV owners | Military Trader

After shoveling 18" of snow off the driveway, I thought I would like to do something a little more constructive. My front differential actuator has leaked air since I bought the truck from GL 2 years ago. It only leaked when the actuator was in the "in" position, calling for the transfer case to...

I was out in the shop yesterday putting some parts away and realized I had not started the genset since last Summer. The batteries have been on a Battery-Minder Maintainer, so the batteries better be up, I'll check and see. Past experience has told me to crack open the fuel filter bleeders and...

Has anyone ever seen one of these? Part Number is: 57K0257. I found it in the TM 9-2320-361-24P in the repair parts and special tools list. It looks as though it is canvas and not a tinted plastic. Curiousity got me.

The MVCC had the honor of being requested to do a vehicle display for the unveiling of the Veteran's Plaza of Northern Colorado in Fort Collins. I left the homestead at 0715 to meet up with Phil M. and Mike M. at the truckstop in Watkins. We grabbed a cup of coffee and got back on the interstate...

Just sending some feelers right now, but the MVCC (Colorado) would like to know if there is any interest in a Mountain/Plain States Rally. You Guys in the Mid-West, South and the East can't have all the fun. We are thinking a early Fall Rally would be an appropriate time. Give us some feeback.

The lights have been mounted for months now so I decided this afternoon I would finish the wiring portion of the task. I placed a switch in the cab under the dash with an indicator lamp to tell/remind me the lights are on. I also placed a switch at the rear above the left mudflap, also to turn...

Did the U.S. Armed Forces ever field a motorcycle with a sidecar? I've done a little research, but can't seem to find any. I have dinner riding on this, I say no, my Son says yes.

Anyone ever run across an XM389 Trailer? This paticular unit is on-loan to the Club for restoral. The boxes are mounted on rubber isolators, which at one time contained electronic equipment. The wheel size is 9.00 x 16. Any insight to this "different duck" would be appreciated.

I'm showing myself to be "search impaired" while trying to find a thread written by David Doyle explaining the code in the USA Numbers on military vehicles. I would greatly appreciate someone providing me the link to that thread. I'm trying to help a fellow Club Member decipher the USA Number on...

Looking for the gas engine model number/designation of the M88. As I understand, there were a few made before they switched the diesel engine. We had one in our 8" Howitzer unit (8th Div 3/16 FA) and I am curious if DOD used this powerplant in other tracked vehicles.

The tranny in my Deuce has been busted all winter and now that the days are getting longer and nicer, I took the top off last weekend to see what came apart. It seemed to get into 2 gears at the same time, I think it was reverse and second. Not knowing this at the time, I let the clutch out and...

The MVCC (Military Vehicle Collectors of Colorado) is seriously entertaining the idea of hosting a rally somewhere in the Mountain/Plains area. The location would be central to Utah, Wyoming, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, New Mexico, and Arizona. Who would be a knowledgable person to talk to in...

I have decided to remove the 003A from the M116A1 and place it on the M105A2. Three reasons: (1) The 105 tows better, and looks better behind the Deuce. (2) I can use the 116 for an ATV or utility trailer behind my civi truck. (3) The 105 has the cargo cover to protect the genset from the...

I remember seeing a classified ad a few weeks ago of a Gentleman selling a dropside securing rod. This is the part that holds the dropside in place when opening the tailgate. I've searched and can't find the ad now. I'd like to purchase this item so I don't have to fab one up. Anyone remember...

Thinking :roll: about putting a LDS in my Deuce. Sure would like to hear stories from somebody that has done the swap.

Anyone know the weight of a Multifuel Engine Shipping Container? I don't want any "I think" or guesses, just a true weight. I'm making a deal with a Guy and his "best guess" is way out of line, about the same weight as the motor. I've searched for this for quite a few hours now, and have come up...

Just curious, do you have a Fire Extingusher and First Aid Kit on your Vehicle? Both? Neither?

I'm looking for photos or a description of the BII on the trailer (M116) for the MEP-003A GenSet. I went through some TMs but couldn't find what I wanted.

OK, so I got busted. Speddmon caught my thread giving kudos to the GL Guys down at Ft. Carson, after recovering my GenSet last Tuesday. I have not started it yet, I would like to get a complete filter change kit, and flush out the fuel tank before attempting to start. One of the control knobs is...
