    Are M51A2 and deuce battery boxes the same?

    The box itself is the same, there are metal and plastic versions. The mouting brackets/ step assembly is different. Same deal with the m54 as well.

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    After 5 years with the old school plow setup on the m1028 it’s time for a little bit of an update. 4 leaf springs were swapped in Minute mount push plates No more headgear year round “New” plow on it, an 8’6” Fisher ez-v. Still need to get the lights working and paint it yellow.

    Fisher Minute Mount Push Plates info

    Can anyone who has a minute mount plow on their CUCV get some info for me? I have a set of push plates but I’m missing the angle braces between them (number 3 in the diagram). If someone wouldn’t mind getting me the specs on them I’d really appreciate it. Trying to get them exact as far as...

    Missing plug under flywheel on 1971 Deuce &1/2

    The plug is just used when fording the truck so you’re all set. On most trucks there’s a holder with it right next to the hole. Your problem is unrelated and could very well be weak batteries.

    M1008 rear carrier

    Good eye. But why does that matter?

    What did you do to your trailer today.

    More progress on the m416. Added the metal brake lines and LED lights and wiring. Still need to install a new rubber brake hose and bleed out the brakes. I’ll have to check the bearings too. I kinda like how the m101a3 jack turned out.

    He’s still around and he still has the EOD m37, just never on the site anymore.

    Steering wheel removal.

    Here’s what the military steering wheel puller looks like. Something like this and some heat will probably do it.

    What did you do to your trailer today.

    Made some progress on the goofy looking m416. Nothing special up close but it’s green. I just want to get something done completely, even if it’s the easiest project.

    TH400 to NV4500 crossmember

    I think I used 2” square tube. Everything worked fine.

    Welcome to the site, that looks like a real nice trailer. At least someone figured it out after only snapping two of the wheel studs.

    I Bought a 100 Year Old Army Trailer Today

    The trailer is shown just after the 2 minute mark in this company history video.

    I Bought a 100 Year Old Army Trailer Today

    The trailer was a really good deal, and right in town too. The seller even delivered it for free since we didn’t haggle. The tires do look pretty good for 100 years old! I really think that after checking the hubs this could still be used in a farm or similar application as it sits (of course...

    I Bought a 100 Year Old Army Trailer Today

    I might have to check with organizations like that to find put more about it. I don’t think they were actually used in the war, I suspect they were ordered because of the war and never used (probably too late to need them) Based on newspaper ads there were some big surplus auctions in the US...
