    READ before you pay sales tax out of state on vehicles

    Same here. I bought some trucks in Mississippi and they charged 5% tax. I had to pay Louisiana the additional 3.75% once i proved I already paid the MS tax. BTW in the Paid in Full Invoice it states the Code and tax paid. That is the document you need to send LA DMV as proof of tax paid. It...

    READ before you pay sales tax out of state on vehicles

    With all the crazy laws in the books on the Federal, State and local level I would bet your are in violation of at least one of them and don't even know it. It's been discussed on Fox news and other news organizations before. I bet even lawyers are not aware of every law out there.

    READ before you pay sales tax out of state on vehicles

    Maybe you should start a pole to see how many members title their MV in the state they bought the MV VS the state they actually live in. SO why does GL assume we will title the truck in a non-resident state instead of the state we live in?

    Got 'er home!

    The only truck that I know that comes with a liftgate is the M820A2. It has to be the A2 variant to have the liftgate. That does not mean there are no other trucks with a liftgate. I just never seen one.

    No More Water Pump Leaks When Tightening The Fan Belts

    Is it spring loaded or is the 1 bolt holding the pressure on the belt? Are you planning of selling these to members?

    Got 'er home!

    Wrong info! All the M939A1 and M939A2 come with 14.00-20s on them. Plenty are being parted out -so the tires and rims are available.

    My replacement XM820e2 recovery and modification thread

    Here are a couple of pictures I took of the truck in the rain today. The color of the paint looks a lot better when wet. It is a better example of how nice the truck will look when I finish repainting it.

    What is the canister on the inside of the front bumper, driver side?M923A2

    Could it be what they call a bypass oil filter. I installed one on my first Deuce. It slowly filters the oil to a much finer level so it will last longer between changes. It is an add-on not a replacement for the original oil filter setup.

    My replacement XM820e2 recovery and modification thread

    Going to keep it mostly original. No camper plans. I will use it as an inclosed cargo truck. Also the liftgate makes a great work platform for repairing equipment. Adjustable height and plenty of room for tools and parts.

    My replacement XM820e2 recovery and modification thread

    I decided to do some preliminary inspection of the truck today. Put the transfer case in Neutral and the tranny into neutrol. Pulled the PTO engage lever forward while holding the clutch in. Started up the truck and could see the PTO shaft turning the hydraulic pump for the liftgate. I...

    My replacement XM820e2 recovery and modification thread

    I forgot to add some interesting info I found out about this particular truck. I noticed 2 faded stickers on the truck that I have seen on another truck before. One was on the front of the driver side fender and the other was on the driver side door. They are travel stickers. This truck was...

    I was just at the right auction at the right time. I was shocked that I was not outbid! I have been outbid on auction many times with only 2 minutes left.

    FASS in a M923 with Cummins 250

    Now see you bring up a good point. Use the same idea but with cheaper component costs.

    My replacement XM820e2 recovery and modification thread

    Thank you Richard. Me too. That is what I missed the most about the truck. I was using it as a drawbridge for transferring cargo between my truck and a semi. I also used it as a work platform for servicing equipment (since I could adjust the work height)

    My replacement XM820e2 recovery and modification thread

    I finally brought home my newly acquired 1971 XM820e2 from Jeff Davis's compound near Camp Shelby. I want to thank Jeff for the recovery, storage and assistance in getting it road worthy. I purchased this truck 5 years and 1 day since I purchased the same model truck from Fort Polk, LA. I...
