    question Help

    Try this link. I have never tried it myself, but it says it lists 51 million veterans. Might at least be a place to start. Good luck! http://www.amervets.com/

    CB Antenna kits?

    Ryan, this thread has a little info about mounts. I was inquiring also so I could mount a CB antenna. There is a link in there for a drawing for the standoff if you need to get one made. http://69.6.236.165/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=viewtopic&t=5665&highlight=antenna+mount

    need beacon light

    Thanks Mike The pipe is not my big concern, have a 4 foot piece in my shed that screws right into the light. Only need a short length of 1 1/4 from the lumber yard to mount to the truck. 'Course, if you find the whole set up all drilled and pinned with a wire hanging out the bottom, more time to...

    need beacon light

    Back to lights. My MV buddy Jim gave me a 12-24 volt Whelen Super Strobe 360 C which I want to use as a warning light on the Deuce. It threads onto 1" galvi pipe which fits nicely in 1 1/4" pipe so with drilling a few holes and a pin I can make it adjustable. Two ?'s, you fellas that have them...

    Locked brakes

    More than likely, the problem is in the operation of the airpack. My understanding is that when it fails, one of two events occurs. You either have no brakes( or maybe hydraulic only) or they lock up. They lock up because the large piston and the valveing in there is allowing air pressure...

    Top bow length

    Thanks Lee, I was looking over the troop seats etc., for the dropside bed I bought and comparing to the troopseats on my regular bed and find that I have 3 dropside rear side pocket stakes as corner stakes on my non-dropside troop seats but none with the brace rod. I have 4 more came with the...

    Having dealings with him right now. Very good to deal with. His wife even called one time to double check on something.

    Top bow length

    The top bows that came with my non-dropside bed are too short. They are approx. 70" long. It would appear that they should be approx. 75 1/2" long. Would the short ones perchance fit a dropside bed? If not , any suggestions as to what they might fit? Maybe a trailer, M37 etc. Any thoughts...

    M37 winch

    No, I don't. But, I did hear of an M37 for sale about 5 miles away that has been owned by a very knowledgeable MV enthusiast whose family has been involved with them for many years. I was told that it was complete, good runner etc. but probably did not have a winch, soooo, that's why I asked the...
