    M127 from PA to VA?

    Eddie, Unfortunately, the tractor is down there until I get it...and it is way down the list. I have to bring my tan M925A2 and two deuces back first. If you can figure out a way to get it up to you, you are welcome to borrow it. That would actually help me get it half way home.

    MUTT JEEPS FOR SALE

    RE: Re: RE: MUTT JEEPS FOR SALE My experience is that you cannot give away a cut MUTT. I always factor that in whenever I bid or buy something...how easily I could get rid of it if I wanted to sell it. Figure that in when you are negotiating a price. I'd say that $3K or less would be...

    M127 from PA to VA?

    Again, you are welcome to borrow my M818 (it is at Winslow's place in NC). Go and pick up your trailer with the tractor on it.

    New M105A2 from GL

    Eddie, I have an idea for you. Go down to Winslow's place in NC. Pick up one of my M818s...and proceed up to PA to get your trailer. I recommend you grab the solid green one as it is cherry and runs like a raped ape. I'll take a look at your post.

    New M105A2 from GL

    Kenny, I only have one older trailer. It is a 1968 model. It is rust-free, has crank up landing gear and has near NOS wooden racks on it (all four sides). The trailer was shipped back to Ft. Drum from Camp Victory, Kuwait. All of the other trailers are the newer style.

    New M105A2 from GL

    Chris: Nice trailer! Good luck! Kenny: Come see me...I've got seven cherry M105s. I'd hook you up on one.

    RE: radials I've got the same set up as KIPMAN.

    MadDawg's new fleet of M35A2s

    Mike, if you inspected then you noticed that 64 is a non-turbo truck (as mentioned above) and was brush painted. Check out the tops of the bed sides, tail gate and frame rails...they were not painted. Personally, I'd push that truck out the door as quickly as possible. I inspected in, too. I...

    Upgrading to radials

    James, I agree that the rearview looks wimpy with the singles...kind of scrawny looking. With that said, I like the XL tread pattern much better than the NDTs so that offsets things. I would consider putting duals on it...but the XLs cost so much (and are tough to find).

    Upgrading to radials

    I'll add a bit to James' (M1075) response. If you run a tire like a Michelin 1100X20 XL radial, you can use the standard deuce rims. This is what the NG does. I have never seen a freshly released singled out M35A2 with rims other than the standard deuce rims. I have a singled out M35A2 with...

    Mid-80s M44A2s

    Hi, I have a mid-80s M35A2C and have also owned a 1987 M49A2C. I was wondering if anyone knows which model trucks were produced in the 80s. I've only ever seen M35A2Cs or M49A2Cs. Did they make any other models (e.g., M109A3s, M36A2s)? Did any of the trucks have winches? It seems as though...

    Where to get M35A2 engine gasket set?

    Mark, did your M35A2 blow a head gasket or are you looking for someone else? I concur with David Doyle...go to Memphis.

    Michelin Tire Question on M105a2

    The 1100 X 20 Xl will fit mounted on a standard deuce rim. Here are pics of the tires on deuce rims on my M149A2.

    Where to buy M101A1 bow corners?

    Yes, they are complete bows. A couple of the corners might have some surface rust on them...nothing bad. The wood ranges from definitely useable to very nice. They were on my old M101A2. I had to buy a complete set of bows so they came off. I would not have been hesitant to leave them on my...

    Where to buy M101A1 bow corners?

    I have four complete bows for an M101 trailer. I'd sell them for $15 each (if you take all four). Let me know. The only tough thing would be shipping.

    Back in the club!

    The really cool thing you are going to enjoy is how different the truck is from your last one...I guarantee it. I've owned almost 20 deuces over the years and I've never owned two that sounded or drove alike. They each have their own personalities and quirks just like people. Congratulations...

    Finally got the truck...with a lot of headaches...

    With regard to the radiator, it might not have been the GL guys. The DRMO guys have been doing this stuff for years. I once saw an M52A2 at Lakehurst, NJ that had been shoved sideways about 20 feet by a forklift. I know it was shoved by the crushed fuel tank and the skid marks the tires made...

    NEW ENGLAND RALLY???

    What about upstate NY...about 20 miles from Cooperstown? My family has a place there on about 100 acres. There is a huge field that is mostly cleared for camping, vending, etc (the field was completly cleared about 15 years ago for farming and has been mowed, but not for a few years). There...

    odd turn signal guards '70 Kaiser Jeep M35A2

    That is BS that all the newer trucks have these light guards on them. If that was so most of the trucks that we have would have those light guards on them. That is just not true. Provide proof...

    odd turn signal guards '70 Kaiser Jeep M35A2

    They are actually a nicer design because you can step on them but, I agree, they are not seen as readily. I don't have any info on their use. Just curious why MADDAWG thinks they were used with armor. Where did that come from?
