4 stars here, 2LT last time I wore the uniform, but thanks for the compliment. -- Lee

Memphis will ship direct to the Evil Empire of Canada? Cool! I just hope they didn't have forced sexual intercourse with you over the shipping!

Keep the M35A2C, sell the old Deuce, use the proceeds to buy the CUCV. Problem solved!

I only need 4. What is Saturn's price for them? I tried searching their site again but couldn't find them. If you can't find a dealer to ship to you directly, PM me and we will get it done.

Notice the early style handbrake lever in the slide show for the one Will had the link to? Must be an oldie. "2031 miles, 1762 hours"? Something got swapped out. It looks fairly decent though.

Troop seat legs or butt?

I'd like a few myself, but Saturn's price turns me off. If you can get a decent quantity price out of Saturn I'll get them and ship yours to the Evil Empire of Canada! A USPS Priority Mail® Flat Rate Envelope envelope to Canada is about US$9.00, 4 lbs maximum weight.

You are worried about a $1390 Dropside Deuce? Here in MI, a Deuce with a GL certified SEIZED engine will bring $2500-$3000 easily! I paid $2750 for a non-running GL Deuce without a cargo cover out here two years ago (and prices have gone up a lot since then). The only reason I bid that much was...

Re: RE: Daily driver? Pretty much agree with the above - they are BIG and cumbersome, especially for city traffic. However, if your driving is mostly rural or light city traffic and you add air assisted steering and front locking hubs (and maybe a double splined axle shaft and one locking hub...

Read PS-28, The Multifuel Operators Guide, in the TM section. Hydrostatic lock is caused by a quantity of liquid entering a cylinder or cylinders in sufficient quantities to exceed the available compression volume of the cylinder. More simply put, a cylinder has a quantity of liquid in it which...

Re: Starting Fluid Both my Deuce, which came with a military installed ether system, and my absolutely brand new and unused, in a Hercules branded box NOS ether start system have a spare cylinder clamp which attaches to the inner LH headlamp panel.

As always, Bjorn had it right. I would have said .025 on both sides and been wrong. Gotta remember to read the TMs BEFORE I post to get the numbers.... DO read the TM's before you try this at home, they tell you how to adjust all 12 valves with only 1 (manual) crank of the engine, better to get...

The ether start cannister is a very common item. My truck came with a ether system, I bought a spare cannister at the local auto parts store for $24. They didn't have it in stock and had to order it, had it 24 hrs later. The ether cylinders come in a two different sizes, the stock Deuce system...

Re: cross country move Better stated, this WILL be a trip to remember!!!! As for the headphones, I've NEVER been bored driving the Deuce (course, I've never taken a 1900 mile trip either!)! As for the tingling hands, I wear those cotton work gloves with the little rubber nubbies on the palms...

Re: RE: New m35 Your engine does not have a turbo, so it will smoke more. On the other hand, you should have a muffler, so it is a lot quieter than a turbo engine. I would suggest 90% of our members use 15W-40 Shell Rotella T oil or equivalent quality name brand DIESEL engine oil. Note the...

8: Don't bust the bubble! Eastern surplus has an excellent reputation. Buy the truck ahead of time, drive the crap out of it, and that should give you plenty of time to shake out any bugs. Not that I'd expect anything major, Deuces are pretty bulletproof, given a good set of batteries, all...

Never seen a M123 in person, but I did get to climb over a M911 when I was at Selfridge ANGB checking out some Deuces. I did get up close and personal with a whole CONVOY of M1070 HET Tractors and M1000 trailers this spring. A MI ARNG unit had pulled into a local truck stop for rest break. I...

Oshkosh Equipment has a M123A1C. Asking price was something like $28,000! http://www.oshkoshequipment.com/details.cfm?ProductID=77&pid=2&cat=4 Also a M911, no idea on the price. http://www.oshkoshequipment.com/details.cfm?ProductID=73&pid=2&cat=4

SMARPI (Supplemental Maintenance And Repair Parts Instructions) 9-2320-209-14&P is in the tech manuals section. Although not a detailed installation manual, it does give enough information for a reasonably competent mechanic to convert a truck to a split system. The hardest part would be finding...
