Then you'll be happy to know I've decided not to paint it. Aren't you the guy that can look up the serials on these? My other 2 were NG trucks, this one came from CA after the movie people were done with it but I'm curious to know where they got it from.
I noticed something while taking the stake sides off the bed. There are several holes drilled in the bed. It looks like something was mounted there. They are drilled near the back of the bed. Does anyone have any ideas?
It also came with a really nice condition Treibstoff Jerry can. The enamel...

That makes sense. I knew about the transfer case problem which is why it had crossed my mind that it had been disabled intentionally. I would like to see if it works so I may hook it back up. The only thing that worry's me is the slight chance that there is something mechanically wrong and by...
I'm looking at an m923a2 to buy and during my inspection I noticed the transfer case lever is missing its pivot pin. Im wondering why they would have disabled it or if the pin just came out on its own somehow. I would appreciate any opinions. Thanks.
The higher pressure in the rear assumes that the truck is fully loaded at 2500 lbs. Its the same reason pickup trucks have higher rear tire pressures. I run the same front and back on the HMMWV. I run lower rear pressure on my pickup unless I'm hauling something.
