    Resurrecting an M108

    Nice truck! That's interesting that it has been converted to a multifuel already. Seems like a bunch of them have been converted over from the gas engines in recent years.

    Early Wheels

    They could be early m34 combat wheels. I can check the book when I get home tonight, someone will probably answer before then. I’ve posted the part numbers here on the site before in another thread asking about them.

    B&M Military Surplus- Altona, NY?

    It is the same guy.

    1950 Korean War Deuce

    I think it’s $15 for a year.

    14 Bolt Rear Open Conversion?

    I didn't notice any difference with my m1028 after the NV4500 swap. I'd say it's still more well behaved than the one in my other CUCV with the auto transmission.

    Wrecker question

    Sounds like it's most likely either an m246 or m819 tractor wrecker. Neither are very rare I'd say but they are less common than the regular wreckers.

    M35A2 Hydraulic PTO Winch COG?

    The center of gravity for the truck empty and loaded is shown on the weight and dimension/ serial number data tag on the dash. You can find good enough pics to see it with a quick google search.

    M101A2 questions

    You could bolt on the lunette setup from an m101 or m101a1. That's just a regular lunette setup since those trailers didn't have service brakes.

    14 Bolt Rear Open Conversion?

    Why do you need to remove the locker with an NV4500?

    Frame/hood number dates for M35

    It should be a Studebaker, built around 1954 according to the number. If the axles have data tags on them they should have a year listed, or it could be on the housing itself.

    My new 1992 M998 Avenger

    It should make a pretty good plow truck. The Army tested HMMWVs with 9 foot Fisher plows here in VT with good results. A friend drove one and said it did really well. Here's a pic of your truck at the VT show a few years back.

    Trailer wheel size?

    That's the correct size tire since your trailer is an m116a2 (m101a2 with the cargo bed). The m101a3 versions and the later aluminum trailers had the bigger HMMWV tires stock. You can run some wider tires if you want to, there should be enough room. I had 36x12.5x16.5 tires on one of my...

    Steelsoldiers’ BIG M756A2 Project!

    I wouldn't be surprised if it was from the same unit, his still had the sharks on the doors too. I'll ask him where he bought it from next time I see him, I think he told me but I can't remember now. It's been out of service at least as long as yours. Some more Vietnam pics but not all navy...

    Interior Rearview Mirror?

    The bracket from a GMC 2.5 ton fits, it would be easy to make a similar one.

    Steelsoldiers’ BIG M756A2 Project!

    Keith's truck is only 11 numbers away: These two pics were posted on the site a long time ago: Not the best pic but I think the truck on the left is an m756: Seabees pipeline truck with the cargo bed in Vietnam 1970: Another one, not sure the year or location:

    Soft Top Ambulance cover?

    Maybe m792 gama goat?

    Just joined the Deuce club!

    Looks like a m35 gasser fender to me, that's why it's so close to the engine. Later fenders had more clearance for the multifuel engines.

    Steelsoldiers’ BIG M756A2 Project!

    That’s my friend Keith that bought the BII from recovry . That extra set of adapters ended up in VT.

    Wiring battery tender on M1008

    Are we not allowed to say hi to new members anymore?:|

    New Member from Indy

    Welcome and nice truck. The trailer looks to be an m101a1 model instead of an m105. Also the cover is on backwards.:)
