I would agree as that was the base color back then. I have one M890 that the cab inside was field drab 30118 and used it as the base when repainted but any NOS parts from that period seem to be forest green.
Remember we are all pretty much males on this site and are visual learners, so post...
A great place to go is http://olive-drab.com/od_mvg_vehicle_id_mtrucks.php scroll down to either the 809 series (10 different) or 939 series (24+ counting A1,A2) click on a picture of whichever truck you think looks cool and you will get specs, pictures and links. Really a great place for the...
Welcome to the site there a a few of us on here with bikes. The good thing is they did not take the super hard to find Mil light switch or the front blackout light. I have a spare mil green tank green I could trade for the sand one if you want. Got any pictures of it head on and what year is it?
There a lot of guys up your way, just look down the page at Similar Threads. I come up once a year to the Iola rally and really enjoy it. Welcome to the site.
Hardtop, heater, winter bra, caulk all the holes, boots for the levers, muffler, new seats, civi wipers with arms and insulation. Oh and
Carhartt coveralls
What he said, killed some like that years ago. Besides cleaning all the grounds and connections is when the batteries have a full charge get them load tested. I got some a year ago that were "reconditioned" from a national supplier one of them turned out to be 13% and the other 23%. Also put a...

They really need no adjustments when put on a 5T. My 818 was a rough rider bob tailed and mine came from the military with radials on the front and NDCC's on the back. When I changed it over to all G177's the ride was greatly improved and tire noise was also reduced.

Yep it's what his dad and I call him in public, it's more PC than "Dumb A**". He's really a good guy as long as you can see him!
Yep Recovry4x4, but no Krystal anywhere out this way and the closest WC is a 3 hour drive in MO.
If you have seen the post on my Maintenance kite you will know what I am talking about. Luckily for me I called davesgmc Dave at 10 last night after a saw what happened.
He lives about 30 mins away and wanted to know if he needed to come over now and help, I said lets wait for daylight. Dave...
