    Yup, wrong rim. That fits MRAPs. I have a FMTV rim here in League City you can have.

    Headlights, tail lights and turn signals

    Are the proper part number relays in each position? They are listed on the PDP cover. Uncle gets this wrong all the time.

    1951 m104 Trailer

    I think Fruehauf designed the 104/105 trailer, sort of like Reo did the M34/35. All the super early trailers seem to be Fruehaufs.

    Glad hands replacement

    That is the dummy coupling and if air is coming out of it, you have air brake problems, which have been discussed extensively on Steelsoldiers.

    1951 m104 Trailer

    I like it. The only type of 105 trailer I would want. Is it a Fruehauf? And a set # 7 to boot!

    Glad hands replacement

    What is a "glad hand handle" on a FMTV? Simp assumed you were talking about a shut off valve.

    Looking for M151 Spare Tire "Long Bolt"

    I have seen exactly what you are talking about, but what I have seen is a piece of all-thread that was made into a J hook of sorts. I really don't think there was an issued part for this but I could be wrong.

    SRW operation and accessories

    Ha, I just did a thread on this. But first welcome to the site. A tailchain/hook assy from a M35A2 older deuce works great. Red River Parts and Equipment has the best deal on these. I did not notice that you could fool the winch into operating with the transmission in drive. Will have to...

    Surplus Auction for Humvees

    Yes. I don't think the HMMWV ever had GM turbo 6.5s but the H1 Hummers sure did. Stanadyne pump gave owners fits.

    Any Sherman tank experts here?

    I fiddle with 2 valve Detroit 671s as well.

    Serial help

    Well, color is Federal Specification 24087 for the truck and flat white for the numbers. Go to "militarystencils.com" for what your A1's stenciling should look like. Choke goes right next to steering column. Fording control goes in the hole where the fording instruction plate is.

    Surplus Auction for Humvees

    There was a period of time prior to GEP starting production in 2000 that 6.5 equipped HMMWVs had GM 6.5 engines. These have the cracking issue, which is why GEP had to do design changes to the engine.

    Does my deuce sound right to you? Audio inside.

    Take off valve covers and run it, look for pushrod issues.

    Serial help

    Welcome. You are super lucky that plate was there, most of the time they are missing. The main data plate cluster for the dash is available new old stock (NOS) and a local engraver can engrave your serial number. Year of manufacture should be 1952 though based on that low serial.

    battery problem

    Why do you have the 12 volt winch connected to the battery to the front of the truck? It should be connected to the battery to the rear of the truck. The battery that has the negative cable going directly to the frame under the cab.
