    How to post a ad ?

    Well if this site were all tech and no conversation and no one had a sense of humor it would be boring and not have near the membership it has now. (I like the qwik witted one liners some of the members throw out there).

    Dented hardtop fix

    Thats what I did to mine. A short scrap piece of 2x12 on the drivers box seat, (dent was above the drivers seat and to the rear) the bottle jack on that and a 4x4x1/4 piece of steel on top of the jack and a 2x6 on that and just worked it around till most of the dent was out. Mine has a slight...

    M-715 Trailer Wires

    :ditto: If your M715 is still 24v and you get a M101 make sure the bulbs on the trailer are 24v bulbs. Some come with 12v bulbs in them. On a side note did you paint that TJ or did you have a shop do it? Im thinking of going with OD paint on mine this summer. If you got any more pics of it...

    need to lighten my m105a2

    Remember we are just trying to help you and want to be safe about it. Now, with that out of the way, I bet that tow rating is 5K with trailer brakes. The 105 is a monster (empty) behind anything smaller than a 3/4 ton. It may feel fine going down the road and even slowly comeing to a stop...

    replacing bumpers on m1008

    The truck was NOT originally red. The Fire dept painted it red after the got it from the military. You are not restoring it by putting chrome on it. If your going to come into a Military vehicle forum and talk about throwing something shiny on it you better expect to get razzed a little...

    air impact wrench

    Wait till you come across one that has only one or two of the studs changed out for the wrong ones.

    air impact wrench

    :ditto: Wouldnt be the first time someone tried to remove the drivers side without success.

    need to lighten my m105a2

    A couple of leaves aren't going to remove that much weight. 105's are just heavy, there are not enough parts to remove to reduce the weight enough without removing the bed. If you do that, whats the point of owning a 105 to begin with.

    Are you just asking or are you having problems with the lug nuts not coming loose?

    m105 bobbed deuce wheelbase

    136" wb more or less and 4 3/4" from the top bed rail to the cab. The bed sits on 3/4" oak to clear the rivets.

    new tow bar mount

    The bracket that bolts the bed to the frame should give you the location the OP is using.

    M816 info and picture needed

    The glad hands on the front are used for when that wrecker needs to be towed. They have one way valves in them IIRC. They should not have any air coming out of them.

    M211 Hard top trade for m35 top

    Glad Im not the only one to feel that way. I had a whole post typed out but didnt feel like posting it and getting berated by other members. That why I just went with the aua instead. (oh and I did report the post so some mod should have seen it, unless like porkysplace said and they took the...
