Hey 3rdAngus: I don't mind starting off, but I wanna make sure I put this in the right place. Do we put it in this forum? Or elsewhere? I don't have a lot of big stuff but I have lots of smaller stuff. CL

That is correct, nnero. You can order the USGI wrenches from vendors on here or some of the big boys will have them. Or go to your local NAPA dealer and get the Ken Tool wrench with the 1.5" hex socket on one end and the 13/16" square socket on the other. The NAPA part number for the wrench...

This is such an awesome piece of equipment. Can anyone tell a noobie what specific function it served? I am sure there were many varied uses, but it doesn't seem to be a logistics / supply vehicle. I can envision battle planning and/or command and control going on in it, though. Just...

I picked one of those up at my local NAPA about a week ago, and was wondering why are they so expensive? After taking my passenger side rear duals off, I found out why. They're built like a tank. You need that toughness on some of those nuts. If you can break one of these things you are...

Didn't know it could get that cold in Arkansas, but I see you are up near the Missouri line. Reckon you must be in the Ozarks? LC

After taking two rears off today, I am wondering if it would be a good idea to keep a duckbilled hammer, sledge hammer, tube patch kit, spare tubes and tire tools with the truck. I sure would hate to get a flat and not be able to change it, seems like it might be a great idea to be able to fix...

Been a pretty cold winter here in South Louisiana this year, much like last year. No snow yet, but some sleet and freezing rain, and temperatures have dipped into the 20's several times so far. Gonna get to about 26 here tonight. That being said, I don't mind it, it really isn't that cold...

Started taking my wheels off today to fix the flats, (got a couple tubes at a local tire shop). Took the outer wheel off fine after getting a 1.5" socket for the air impact hammer. Got to the inner and was wondering why it didn't just slide off. My brother comes by and asked if I had read the...

I bought a gallon from Krall back in November I think and he mentioned that was his last one. Guess it's not coming out of DRMO much. From what I hear most items listed as consumables are just pitched. What a shame. LC

I know what you mean. Happens to all kinds of stuff on GL, not just the trucks. From what I've seen ammo cans go for, I wonder how anyone can make money selling them. When I got my Deuce, I was scared to death it was going to be a frenzy at the last minute, guess I just got lucky. LC

From what I have been told by members here, the number on the frame is the "controlling" one. I may be wrong, but it looks like you need a corrected SF-97. LC

LOL, so you're the guy! Congratulations! I watched all those auctions last week, sure got active right at the end. I even went the week before to Pineville to look at all the A3's, but ended up not bidding on any of them. Gotta say that long bed one was tempting, though. That M36 looked like...

I couldn't get my agent (who has all my other insurance, BTW) to budge off of a commercial policy. And per my previous post, they would only quote a 6 month policy, which was much higher than what I have with Progressive (which is an annual policy). Don't understand it, I'm in a very rural...

My Deuce is with Progressive also, it's a commercial policy, costs about $65 per month, but worth it since I am using it for multiple roles. LC ETA: I got a quote from my State Farm agent who has all my other business, but their quote was a good bit more for a 6 month policy. The Progressive...

Nice truck, Crawdaddy, looks good. I got mine with a winch because I am mostly going to use it on a couple pieces of property my family owns. One is a small piece of land with the only access via a pipeline right of way, and you probably know how bad those can get. If I stick this thing, I...

Gentlemen: I've been looking for these myself at the local NAPA. I believe the part number is UP45. LC

3rdAngus: I am not that familiar with the antique registration process, and the OMV website is no help. I did find a website called DMV.com which states the following for LA: HOW TO REGISTER AN ANTIQUE OR CUSTOM BUILT VEHICLE You will have to visit an OMV near you to register your antique...

Thanks, Cat Man. However, it appears that, since I am registering it as a former military vehicle, and not as an antique, then this section does not apply. I am trying to get it registered under RS 47:490.16 (C). Any other members have any different information? Looks like I might have to...

I'm 5' 10", 220 lbs, and while my belly doesn't rub, it comes close enough to make me uncomfortable. If I'm wearing a coat, it almost feels like I'm trapped in there. It's not enough to make it unbearable, but it does get kinda uncomfortable after a while. Gonna have to come up with...

Hi guys: I need some assistance. Hopefully sometime in the next week or two my problems with OMV and registration will be ironed out. With that hopefully out of the way soon, I am now turning my attention to the annual inspection. I have seen Frodobaggins post from a while back that you do...
