    Bought an M925 in HI... should be fun

    What do you think this will cost you? Just curious to hear if the price is different from 2001. It cost me $6500 to get an M932 shipped from HI to MD.

    M809 series t case sprag replacement

    James, either you have something that I have never ever heard of in an M809, I misunderstood your post, you did not describe what you have well, or you are wrong. I have never heard of an airshift in an M809 series truck. John Winslow, Jeff Symanski and others have installed an airshift lever...

    Waiting on a M817 with winch by chance???

    Man, I did not see your wallet in there. I also wondered if the tires would rub the underside of the fender and bed when off-roading.

    Waiting on a M817 with winch by chance???

    Does anyone else think that those tires look way too big for that truck? The tires almost touch betweem the rear axles.

    ebay Tan vinyl M151 Top... BEWARE

    Looks like the seller has since modified his listing to reference these concerns.

    NDT Replacements

    The tires that I mentioned are 1100 X 20s. They are commonly used as singles on a deuce and recently have been coming out from the military installed as duals. The Goodyear G177s, Michelin XLs, and Firestones mentioned above are all 1100 X 20s and are used by the military on many deuces (and 5...

    NDT Replacements

    Adam, the set of G177s tires I have is just what you need. They are the identical tread pattern to the picture I posted, although those tires are not mine. The spare tire has never been on the ground. The rear eight tires are probably 95-98%. The front two, while very nice, have VERY, VERY...

    NDT Replacements

    Those tires are not mine. I just did a quick Internet search for a picture since I do not have any good pics of the tires on my trucks. That guy may not have any dogs. I have two German Shepherds. The female is fairly friendly, but the male does not like people! Seriously, though, are you...

    NDT Replacements

    The Goodyear G177 has what I would call an aggressive highway tread pattern, but I would call it more highway than aggressive. ;-) They are commonly used on the M939 series trucks that were converted from NDCCs and where ABS was installed.

    M105 trailer question

    I wish you weren't on the otherside of the country. I have two really nice M105A2s that I need to move to free up some space. Good luck in your search.

    M105 trailer question

    Go with one of the older trailers (i.e., not an M105A3). While I prefer the A3, it will cost you more. NONOTAGAIN did a great job of listing out all of the nice features. If you shop around, you'll find an M105A2 cheaply. They are good trailers.

    heater install/old website?

    Have you considered contacting Joe Young directly? Although he rarely shows up here anymore, he still is a member so you could PM him. I bet he'd help. He is a heckuva nice guy and a personal friend.

    NDT Replacements

    The Goodyear G177s are fairly aggressive, ride well and seem to wear well, too. I have them on a couple of trucks. Admitteldly, they are 5 tons, but they will work just as well on a deuce, but you'll lose a bit of power with the larger tires.

    American General A2 wippers

    After reading all of the manuals that I could get my hands on multiple times, one of the first things I did when I bought a truck was conducted a search of the Internet (GOOGLE, MSN, YAHOO, etc.) search on M35A2 parts. I found all sorts of companies that had parts, among them Saturn (specified...

    anybody bobbed a 900 series truck yet

    Josh, that was only a prototype. They also tried to sell it to the civilian market, too, unsuccessfully I might add. I know this for a fact because I know personally the guy who bought out BMY and I have discussed this truck with him and actually laid my hands on one of the brochures. I agree...

    Hard top Price?

    I read here that some of the big dealers were in on these. They might have customers overseas who purchased trucks from the US. These tops would be worth double or triple what they paid.

    Different style cab/cargo cover hooks

    I don't know if they were correct, but they were also on my M35A3. Yes, they work just fine with the rubberized ropes. I had a cargo cover on my A3 and it fit fine.

    CUCV 24v to 12v How-To

    K9VIC, is Vic your name or your dog's? Or, did I misinterpret your screen name entirely? By the way, I love your driveway!

    M35A3 No Winch / Install?

    You WILL NOT find a winch kit for the install. Save your pennies and ante up. In the years that the A3s have been coming out, I have never seen a parts truck with a winch. Heck, you rarely find A3 parts trucks period. That is one of the drawbacks of owning an A3...parts that are A3-specific are...

    how cold is too cold?

    I have recently started my CUCV down to about 15 degrees and it started up quickly. It ran rough for a few seconds until it started to warm up, but it fired off almost immediately...by immediately, I mean I had to crank for about two seconds. I have never had a CUCV that started this nicely...
