Good thinking on the swingaway part, now a lamp or two off to the side to light up the plate @ night will make it complete. The light will have to be shielded so as not to blind traffic behind you, just light up the plate. Thanks for posting...

Good luck with your repairs & susequent retesting. It sounds like you are on your way to getting it back together & running. A plastic 55 gallon water barrel with a male (or female, if you like) camlock 6" off the bottom that would connect straight to the intake of the water input connection of...

Awesome pictures, congratulations on making it home safely. A trip of a lifetime & a rescue one on top of that!

I bought one of these units a month or so ago & just stored it for later usage. The unit came with the power end & a big green metal footlocker full of 2" hoses w/ camlock fittings, 4 wands w/ quick detach fittings, a shower unit & a pile of replacement parts all still in the bags. There was a...

I have a set like that from Radio Shack that has to be 25 years old or more & still work great! Originally they were in a 73 Chevy car for 15 years or more!

New Years Day early morning after too much fun?

I agree with the earlier posters, shop around for a while & get exactly what you want & not what somebody just wants to get rid of. It's your hard earned money & there are folks here with good trucks that are checked out for fair prices. It worked for me...

Sorry, I must have forgotten my manners; welcome to the site & to the Green Iron disease.

I am working on getting a M-1078 this coming year if possible & there are few places that have them here in the South East. It seems that even a though check out doesn't certify that you will get home with no breakdowns somewhere along the route. Sorry to hear about your air compressor issues...

It looks like I need to go back & look thru the unit I got & see if a CD came with it. During the uncrating & storing process, it seems I probably have overlooked it, even though everything had to be removed from the metal storage locker to move it. It's not the first time I missed a CD stored...

My hearing loss is due to serious gunfire back in the day when I was young using no ear protection. Now days, anyplace with large background noise is not where I want to be, if I want to hear what someone next to me is saying. While driving the Deuce, hearing protection is always worn as is days...

Good luck on your recovery trip, keep us posted & don't forget the pictures... Wait a minute. the company I work for has their home office in Spartanburg, SC...

One last post on the cover installation for a vinyl tan cover. The manufacturer ink stamp goes inside the cover cargo area in the front of the cargo area. The shiny side goes out as well as the upper vents & the welded in vinyl tie downs for rolling up the sides. The super rope is starting to go...

It may not be the way the military does it, but I like the idea that the 4 pins are all locked in. The only problem now is when I go to remove the staves in a year or so & can't figure what has them stuck ;). Getting old is fun & full of surprises.

Okay guys, after getting home from work; the side locking pins were checked & they were locked as described. I unlocked the rear sides & the vertical staves dropped into place (Duh) & lined up with everything else. They were then measured, peened to mark where the 1/2" locking pins would go thru...

The pins are locked in place right now & when I have dropped the sides, they didn't fall off; so you are correct. Again, thank you all!

Yes, the truck does have drop down sides. I figured that something might be blocking the staves, so I left them that way last night. Its easier not to have to find a way to reconnect cut material that was mistakenly chopped up due to, "I didn't know that"! Thanks guys, tomorrow the truck will...

I have a question for you learned folks. After getting 4 crates of tan bows & covers, I went to install the opened crate. The staves went in first, but the front & rear ones stick up much higher (10" to 12") than the center three units. The staves are the fiberglas ones & they are all the same...

Nobody got one? I was going to compare notes, but I guess I can go back to reading the TM that came with the unit. The unit I recovered didn't have the accessory pack with it, but it was not even mentioned in the auction, just the TM...

Re: Outdoor M-59 stoves from Jax DLA Did anybody local get one or more of these units after the auction last week? Inquiring minds want to know..:popcorn:
