Chris, the KAT1 is looking great as always, and I love the canopy. I would like to have a canopy that size to park the Deuce under when I have to work on it. It would keep me out of the hot sun as it was 101 degrees here today. I shouldn't complain, as it's 107 in Las Vegas today, and will be...
Picture 1. We have lots of open country out here in NW Nevada, and lots of Jeep and Quad Runner Trails. We have a favorite lunch time spot called Spanish Springs that is about a 25 mile trip through the mountains. It has an elevation of about 7500 Ft, and a wonderful view of the Eastern Sierras...
Picture 1. The cap on the hood for the fording device was welded to the hood, possibly by the Fire Department who was a previous owner. Picture 2. I installed a new hood rub strip to cut down on the hood rattling. Picture 3. The hood also has some damage that was poorly repaired, as you can see...
1st picture. I have installed new data plates for the ignition switch, and fording device, as well as the cable and handle for the fording device. 2nd/3rd picture. I think I have seen other M38A1s with this square can mounted in both rear fender wells, along with the wooden covers. If anyone...
hgun. Here is a picture of the valve installed in my trailer. It is a Turtle Mountain M105A2, delivery date 10-86. Make sure to use a thread sealer when you install your valve to tank, and lines to valve.
When I purchased this M38A1 with a build date of 12-53 several years ago. Then I found out how little I knew about Military Jeeps. I found out that my Jeep had a civilian F-134 engine that had no breather, and the wrong carburetor. The Jeep had been owned by a F.D. so the paint under the OD is...
hgun, I believe it's also referred to as a separation valve. This is part of the braking system for the M105A2 trailer. If the trailer becomes separated from the truck, the valve automatically engages the trailer brakes. When I got my M105A2, the brakes barely worked. Checked everything and I...
cattlerepairman, my truck felt the same way when I installed spline less front hubs. It doesn't feel any faster, but it turns tighter and easier than before. Also I think I picked up a couple miles to the gallon.
What did we do to the Deuce? We drove it with the trailer & shelter to Walker Lake for the 3 day Memorial Day weekend. The Lake is about 24 miles round trip from home, so it's just a short run. Everything went well and the M105A2 & Shelter pull just fine. The last picture is my better half, and...
