Is the pump shot? Cummins swap won't fix that.

If the hood is straight and rust free, might as well use it, no difference from civilian other than color. Well that one has the hood ornament and associated hole. I would find a “6.2 LITRE” ornament and paint the chrome part green, would be unique.

Looks good! I like the hood ornament, does it say 6.2 LITRE on it?

Sure good idea. Will last longer not out in the weather

For sure it’s a 1971 year model. The title should have the frame number, which starts with 0525. Edit: made a mistake

There are many many places to have your injection pump rebuilt, the place I use is Home (dieselpumphouston.com) You send it there and they send it back ready to go. The fuel pump (lift pump) can come from anywhere.

Clamp underneath was for armor that was removed and cut up. Picture ending in 32 is where the CDR valve goes that was removed by GP. Buy a new one from Kascar etc. Picture ending in 06, and 32, yes lots of fuel hoses removed by USMC. GP typically does not do this. Means the fuel system was...

Tank and bed are one huge weldment. Were there no cargo trucks available to buy?

That’s a good question. Since oil changes on these is like a $300 deal, I tend to stretch the intervals since the oil always looks amber on my lightly used 400’s. If you operate in dusty environments, keep with the lube order.

Manufacturer is Kaiser Jeep. M39A2 series. Could be 1965 to 1968. You need two oil filters. Can you start a thread on your M724 please?

Agree with Hammer, that lube order info is dated. I run Delo 400 SDE 15W-40. Takes like 2 buckets and 2 more gallons.

That ship sailed 2 years ago along with $3000 M1025A2s. GovLiquidation was a huge zero in getting the ridiculous sums that Richie is seeing.

If you run the 7155 it makes sense to have a spare shifter for each truck. One day soon the supply will be exhausted and then finding one if needed will suck.

The 8 on the rear can be ho hum but your steer tires need to be exceptional. The military tires are special OZ rubber that can last decades, as opposed to the commercial tires uncle started using recently. Well not exactly recently, 20 years ago.

Every time I think I have found/fabricated every last GMV nicknack you guys come up with something I didn’t know I needed.

$350. That is an obscure item not in high demand.

That Deuce M109 shop van box is ridiculous heavy, at least 2 tons. The aluminum shelter is how to go. Lots of people (myself included) have 280s lying around for camper projects that never materialized.

This is not unusual, Ky is following the USDOT laws. TXDOT told me the same thing 15 years ago, I have kept up my CDL ever since. Medical card, drug testing etc just to drive my old army trucks. I see it as a back up career, if everything else fails, I can drive a garbage truck tomorrow.
