Eric and OP, in regards to this the info you posted is correct......when related to a yoke that slides onto a trans or transfer case output shaft. In regards to a slip and stub yoke, there is usually a corresponding spline on each part. The driveshafts that slip right on an output shaft already...

Post a loaded pic before you depart. Hows the weather?

That odd missing spline is normally used for phasing. The slip yoke on the truck should be at the driveline shop so it can be properly phased. Phasing is probably less critical with a winch driveshaft but it costs no more to do it right. Take him the slip yoke.

I love the cone in the back. Did you nail it to the deck?? Be safe Phil.

I think your results are experienced more often than not! That minor of a vibration on a CUCV probably couldn't be noticed.

This is good info except the part about drive shaft angle. "An advantage of the flip kit is it automatically rotates the rear axle to provide a corrected drive shaft angle." It actually provides an incorrected drive shaft angle. While rotating the pinion up will help relieve the angles on the...

Metric or fractional?

By the numbers. With stock gears and tires at 65 you will be turning 2293 rpm. That is in the ballpark of the sweet spot. At 75 mph you will be turning 2645 rpm. Not exactly in the economy mode but well under the 3600 rpm governed rpm. Just drive it as is for now. Please don't expect blazing...

FM20-22 has all the different field expedients. I have 4 different versions of the FM.

Can you please expand on this? I'm trying to figure out airing up and down unaffected tires will help him change the left front flat.

Travel on bottle jacks is minimal. This problem can be amplified by large super single tires. A chunk of 4x4 and 6x8 are good to drive the flat tire up on so that the jack will have enough travel to complete the change. FWIW whenever I fell a slash pine here I leave at least 2' of stump sticking...

2450-01-173-0134 is the NSN for the deuce troop seats.

Perhaps if you had just looked at the bottom of your post when you typed the title you would have seen the links to 5 other threads. Try it, they are still there.

Is there a Dell app?

That would be something if you had NOS ones. Would love to see the NSN on those.

Find TB 9-2320-209-30-4. That is the technical bulletin for fabricating them. You will have to adjust the measurements for the 5 ton bed. Not a stock item, all were fabricated.

Some Citroens can be made to look a little better.

No worries. The first edition of Military Vehicles even has pics of one in it. When David Doyle did the second edition he debunked the fact that they were part of the M880 family. They are so close in details that they should have been. Either way a super cool truck to get.

You should be able to get the headlight switch at the common parts store.

Although the crew cab was used by many branches and units, it was never part of the M880 family. There are some that came from the military with the 60 front and in my experience, were standard shift. We used to refer to them as GSA trucks. There are many that know much more about the Dodge...
