Better to get a truck with 52K miles on it rather than one with 5,200 miles. I can almost guarantee that the truck with 5,200 miles has probably 105,200 miles on it. While the truck with 52K miles showing may have 152K miles on it, 52K miles in 20 years is plausible. There would have to be...
I am not sure what semi-gloss means with regards to 686A tan CARC, but I am positive that 686A tan CARC is flat paint...I mean VERY flat...no sheen whatsoever. While I was not in the military so I have no firsthand knowledge, I was told this was the correct color for Desert Storm. I second...
There are guys on this list who THRIVE on the 15 minute rule and they are smiling reading this thread. They want to outlast you and cause as much frustration on your part as possible in the hopes that you give up and walk away. I don't like it either, but I deal with it if I want a particular...
I NEVER believe the odometer on ANY truck from the mid-80s showing less than 25K miles. On a rare occasion, the miles are correct and lower than that, but often the odometer has turned over at least once. 2200 miles on a 25 year old truck? Hard to believe. I would need to see pics of things...
KsM715...thank you. Otherwise, you might turn on other predators. To ANYONE who thinks that all GL auctions are public knowledge and therefore publicly known, I say you have no idea what you are talking about. I, myself, follow GL more religiously than most and I miss things. That's the name...
HNDRSONJ, I agree. I doubt it will happen because of the rare bed. I especially hope it won't happen because of the same rare bed. Cutting a deuce that is a fairly common vehicle is one thing; cutting up a rare bed is another.
Does it have the direct drive or overdrive transmission? If it has the latter, take out the overdrive transmission and install a direct drive transmission. You will lose some top speed (max speed will be about 46 MPH). On one hand, it sucks being able to ONLY drive at 46 MPH (now thinking...
Will they help load it? If not, you will need a Landoll or a step-deck, preferably a Landoll so the trucker can just winch the truck onto the trailer. Since you are only 66 miles away, you should be able to get the truck delivered for a few hundred bucks. Do a GOOGLE search for truck towing...
I have a friend who is in the Army Reserves and is also a SS member (he does not get online often). Anyway, he said that his unit has many CUCVs that they are still using. They have not received any word to turn them in and they are the main truck that they use on a daily basis.
Maybe, as part of the bail out of the auto industry, our politicians are working with the big three auto manufacturers on this so we are forced to buy new trucks.
I believe the heaters themselves were the same. However, some of the parts associated with the installation were different. I have a fuel burning heater that was intended for a deuce installed in my M925A2. It was the same heater and most of the kit was the same EXCEPT for the wiring harness...
