    M813A1 pickup at Ferro's place.

    Godspeed Brandon. It never fails to amaze me what a 50+ year old wrecker can do.

    Before you head off in that direction, check out Florida's law.320.086 Ancient or antique motor vehicles; horseless carriage, antique, or historical license plates; former military vehicles.—(1) The owner of a motor vehicle for private use manufactured in 1945 or earlier, equipped with an engine...

    Looking to give my 1028 a 6.5 turbo/4L80E a heart transplant....

    I would like to study the math used to determine that Cummins/NV4500 swap would be cheaper than a 6.5/4L80E swap.

    Help Identify Deuce M56782

    M56782 may be the vehicle SN. Don't know if they were called VINs back then. If that is the SN that would make it a late production Studebaker. The number might just be too high. Most of the Studes I've owered started with M3*****

    New Tires - 285/75/16 on stock springs and wheels - different size spare?

    I did spend lots on the 255s. They are very proud of them.

    New Tires - 285/75/16 on stock springs and wheels - different size spare?

    I did the 255s because they were an inch skinnier, a fraction of an inch taller and mostly because they were load range E. The ford rims look like the stockers but were 7" wide. The M1010 is really cramped in the rear fenderwells.

    M936 Boom hoist mod to double cable length?

    If they are only concerned with length, use 3/8.

    Towing a 12 volt trailer with the deuce - please help.

    I set up a guy to tow home an RV trailer with an M109A3. I ended up bolting a pair of composite lights to the bumper and patched together a harness. Switching bulbs or magnetic lights seems like the easiest solution.

    Put 255s on my M1010 last year but they are on 7" rims. Nice and beefy. Tried to add a pic via tapatalk. Says "This feature disabled by your forum administrator". Oh well.

    M1009 axles under a M1008

    I would run it keeping in mind that I might need to replace it soon. If you're not going to hotdog it, should be fine for quite some time. Plenty of time to hit the pick a part yards.

    I'm headed to the mountains. The War Dept fell in love with Blairsville area so that's where I'll be. Here's what kinda sucks. My 1986 M1008 was purchased in GA. Had a GA title when I transfered it to FL. It has the HMVSS sticker right in the door. If I can't do anything with that I may keep iit...
