More new stuff. Even rare stuff like 2 folding tables as well as the water bag which we have never seen before.
There are also two long tarps we have no idea what they are for. One has a sort of "pouch" near the end. A possible winter cover maybe? The Tarp is very long and has velcro on one...
We picked up our second MKT-90 this week. It is in excellent shape with lots of new canvas as well as new parts.
All the water and fuel cans are brand new. There are also new untensils, new can openers, new MBU wiring, new fuel fill up hoses and spots. We got 2 power inverters, 2 roof jacks...
The Canadian M35has a frame mounted muffler hidden behind the cab under the box. With the insulated cab it is real quiet, I usually let my wife do the talking and listening especially when I am trying to convince her that I need more green iron. Last time it backfired on me when she nsaid no...
If you want to see a nice M109A3:
MilitaryTrucks.ca Website - M109 Military Truck RV Project the truck belongs to my son. Believe it or not the M109A3 sells for about 400 Pound at (GL)Government Liquidation US. Unfortunately being foreigners we cannot buy from GL, I would really appreciate...
Thanks for the link, I left them a message. From all that I have heard and seen on the tele the War and Peace shop is a must. If you want a good deuce we can find you one, I just purchased my 6th deuce. We have the Canadian version of the M35 Detroit diesel, Allison automatic the remainder...
You have a jewel, very nice. Any type of shelters we can get are usually stripped clean. Don't forget going slowly gives the average person time to look and be envious. My son and I are looking to attending the War and Peace shop in 2010 and we plan on doing some shopping. We plan on buying...
In Canada we "Welcome American tourist, please bring and leave lots of dollars":-D:-D:-D I share your desire to go to the Yukon or Alaska, I believe that it would be awesome. Florida is great, but in the last couple of years the weather is the same in Alaska and Florida:roll::razz::razz:
The large lever on beside the driver's seat is for the hi-lo range, when driving on the highway make sure the lever is in the up position. If going cross country the lever should be in the down position or on the floor. To shift the the front axle on simply stop flip the lever to the on...
Recntly someone posted a "What is it?" The item in question is a piece of angle iron that has loops welded to it. Seems everyone had a couple but couldn't figure what it was. I searched the old Threads but couldn't find anything . Well i was on the Eastern surplus site www.easternsurplus in the...

Sportkius this is for you. We might not have the number of vehicles the US military has but we have some 1st class equipment. We had Detroit powered/ Allison tranny way back in 1983. The LAV used by the Marines was developped in Canada and sold world wide. We are a country with a population...
We have a smaaler version of the MVPA called the Ontario Military Vehicle Association and they have some gatherings. You can also see the site www.militarytruck.ca and they talk about the Cdn MVs.
Yea Mike is the person to ask for MKT help. The only complaint I have about him is that he is soo helpful and I feel he works for nothing. If you need something ask him. There Mike I had the chance to say thanks for your help with my MKT ay bargain basement prices.
MKT's are hard to find and once we have them, we are not ready to give them up. I have one complete and am picking up a second one soon. Good luck in search.
I hate to say this but if you plan to use the truck to drive on snow or ice you will ahve a problem. If you plan on adding an axle you will probably have to lengthen the frame. Then you have to figure how you will power the axle, if the axle is not powered it will cause extra drag, also the...
