It was kind of cold today, and I ran into a new problem.... I discovered a bit ago that while the rear window still works it sometimes seems to go off track. Being that I am on active duty still, it was on my "to do list". Today I had to use the window to get a flat tire out as I dropped it...
Anyone here know who won the GL lot(3) of 3/4 ton trailers in Montgomery,AL? I am located at FT Benning and wish to purchase one. I was a bidder on this auction until it was pulled last month, when it was relisted I was TDY without internet access....sigh oh well
Thanks,

Can't help with the type, I remember they were in use in the early 90's to include Desert Storm...I remember unloading/loading rigs like that back when I was a private.

Oh I plan on buying a trailer from GL, I know the TM recommends 3/4 ton only but I am wondering if I can get away with pulling a M105A2 trailer? I ask this for two reasons one because there seems to more of them available and two because I have the lift kit installed.
Thanks,
Dale
I had made a reasonable offer that if it it did not sell on e-bay I could purchase it for. I count myself lucky to have it as it is in good shape. It was the HQ 7 Vehicle for 730 th QM. Seeing that it was 1sg's ride it was maintained well. the fellow I bought it from had two, one had less...
it is easy to see once you remove the airfilter it is centered against the rear firewall.
Oh I agree that older trucks are easier to work on. That was a jest referring to the two batteries and two alternators.

Sorry bout that I have a touch pad on my laptop that caused me to accidentally post to soon. I was referring to GL just be glad your considering buying now, last week the GL site had some "glitches" ;)

I just purchased my first MV, a 1985 M1009 CUCV with 67,800 miles last Saturday from an individual, I have put about 600 miles on it in about a weeks time. All in all it has proven to be a great purchase!
pros:
1. people get out of your way
2. it is always a conversation starter
3. it's paid...
both wires appear to be red in color. I still runs fine now that I removed the resister piece altogether, the wait light comes back on for a bit after it first goes off, and the are some strange noises from dash around steering column. Somehow this piece has something to do with ignition.
Dale
All lights and heater seem to still work, going to drive it around the block and see if everything still works.....how odd:roll:
It looks as though this was a connection that had been bypassed/no longer used, with a resister stuck into the end.
Thanks,
Dale
Hey guys,
I just picked up my 1009 last week and I have driven it about 400 miles so far. Today it drove just fine but a couple moments ago I went to crank it and it acted as if the batt was low (nothing was left on) So I checked the battery terminals connections then tried to crank it again...
