I took my M-819 out today and recovered the back end off of a 1/2 ton command car. Not the best back end. I am just going to give it to a guy who has a front end. Tom @ Snake River

Today, July 26th 2008 I bumped into a guy from Wisconsin who was bring a Ford 6x6 up from Barstow. I asked him how he got along with Dave. He said that Dave went out of his way to be a Royal PITA. He said that he also purchases GL from other bases and gets along there very nicely. I still...

Will bridge truck rims from a M-812 fit on a standard axle ? ? Or are they too deep dished ? ? ? Junkyarddog and others are looking for super singes. I have a full set for sale. Tom @ Snake River

You need to do more homework. As much as I like the dealers, and when they go out the door - they work. But if you buy off of GovLiq, most 800 wreckers go for $10,000 to &20,000 range. I run a M-819 that I bought for $15,000.

In cleaning out one of our M37's we did find a spent 50 cal round in a crack in the back of the bed. While target shooting one day at a old gas cylinder, we returned to the Ford pickup to find an indentation of the heel of a .223 round that had flown by our heads and hit the pickup. Some of my...

Finally recieved 2 - SF-97's today, one on a trailer and one on an M812 bridge truck that I had purchased 2 years ago. The reason I am happy, is that a year or so ago, I applied and GL told me that since the sale was over a year old, they would not consider issueing a SF-97. I then complained...

If you are looking for an all steel trailer, your GVW goes all to h---. I run an M-819 with a M-270 trailer. I licenced it for 50,000 and went down and got a light weight WHAM-O 47,000 lb.s Not much margin for pay-load. Here is a link to the picture...

It is Ebay # 200233102473 and it is right next door to me. I need to go look at it. You always like to get into a project on the cheap, but it always ends up biting you in the rear in the end - money wise. I am working on 2 T-15 weasels and I am up to $5,000 apiece in cash outlay and...

I have all kinds of good rims kicking around as well as takeout motors and a tranny with a Reb kit. Located in eastern Idaho.

Would it be worth the time and effort to put a DUKW hull on a CCKW ??? Or how about a M-135, making a super DUKW ? ? ? Or would it be a total PITA and end up with a scabbed togeather outfit ??? Tom

But the DUKW wheel is 18" ? ? ? ?

What is "with 53" ??? I would swap a full set of bridge truck rims, but I understand that they are too deep to fit on a std axle. They have a full set of 14:00x20 NDT's. Tom
