    My "NEW" M-62!

    I think AM General's M62 had that swing boom, man bucket malarky on it when he got it. IIRC he chopped it off. Original poster, hang tough for a spell, Mr Mack will be along shortly.

    Road trip from south Florida to Lockbourne, Ohio . 42 MRAP Seats

    Gimpy, never did sit it those seats but I really like arm rests. The rainbow fabric is a real deal breaker for me, not to say I'm against the GLBT movement. I wish the MRAP seats were green but black is fine. Jeep, if you want seats from Stonepicker1, come up to the GA rally or try to get a...

    The thrill of dissapointment.

    Wow, truely a blast from the past. I think most of the M108s were Air Force. As far as my truck, it did get repowered and used alot as a yard truck. Never did get restored. When thelast deuce sold I decided it was time for the M108 to go too. Although I traded it off, it still resided in my yard.

    Ferret Engine

    Center mount 6.5 would be a decent compromise in that skinny V shaped compartment. My only concern (engineering consideration) is where the exhaust is dumped from. Another cool project.

    M1008 axles have water in them.

    Got home today and had a looksee at them. Slight rust stain on the shoes, that is all. The cables are perfect and feel like they have been coated with preservative. Everything inside and out has paint on it and not the slightest signs of rust or decay. Once I get them on the axle I will pull...

    Road trip from south Florida to Lockbourne, Ohio . 42 MRAP Seats

    I'm going to try to get my hands on one to see if I can engineer it to fit my M1010. Might be a worthy addition.

    M1009 One more time Hard Starting

    Try a simple filter replacement. Air is leaking into the fuel system at one place or another. Fuel filter area is most likely. The reason you probably had a difficult time finding anything was from people using crappy titles in their threads.

    His offer includes the NOS drums and the studs too. I elected to have him keep the drums and studs as they won't work for my application and it cuts down on shipping a bunch. They are on the front porch awaiting my return.

    I would sure like to have a closer look. Would like to see if they can be adapted to my bambalance.

    NOS. John picked up a bunch of new rear axles. Theses were removed for disc brake conversions. I really needed new backing plates and cables. The rest is bonus. We will see how good the military preservation methods have worked.

    M116a3 trailers

    If you back the first trailer on and run the tires right up against that stop beam then you can just sit the pintle right down on the deck. The second one will back right over the first one in a similar fashion. 3 will fit easily this way.
