    Overturned HMMWV in NJ, stay safe folks

    What is completely apparent is that the windshield, which is supposed to support the vehicle in a rollover, failed miserably in this accident. The B pillar did not fail thankfully.

    G749 Trucks hard to come by

    No, they were fire dept turn-ins at the state forestry yard, Utah I think.

    G749 Trucks hard to come by

    Some nice ones came up not long ago up your way on GSA. You are correct, these trucks are getting OLD and those that have not been cared for are getting scrapped every day. That being said, there still seem to be more of these trucks available than people willing to take them in. As far as...

    6.2 GMC Engine swap

    I can only offer this information: The military 302 has the bellhousing specific for the Hydramatic transmission, and that bellhousing is special for that transmission and is not in any way similar to a modern Chevy bellhousing or anything else for that matter. When you remove the military 302...

    Purchase of an LMTV

    If you don't like black, it is not "the truck you always wanted". Buy one that IS the color you want. This looks like a quick flip paint job that will be peeling off in weeks. Nobody has done the entire proper FMTV A/C install yet. What is being done is the HMMWV kit scab-on, driving off the...

    Question - assistance converting air park/emergency valves to single unit

    Do A1 trucks have a second air line coming from the second air tank? Did you simply put a Y connection right behind the valve?

    impact guns

    Get a glad hand and a 1/2" hose and run it off the emergency glad hand. The impact is so fast (seconds) to remove a nut, you will not deplete much air doing 10 of them.

    impact guns

    This task requires a 1" impact with extended anvil. Northern Tool is a good source.

    I found am M101 trailer... not exactly !!! It is a M10

    Yes I would say they are a rare find. Looks like some dogs will need to find a new place to sleep under. I've got the bows for the canvas top if you can't find them over there.

    The differences in the M135/M211 Wheel hubs......pictures measurements

    Looking at the ORD9 parts catalog, there are 2 different hub part numbers for the M135 and all the dual trucks. Also, the brake drum "back" component is clearly different from the M135 and dual trucks (also has different p/n). So bottom line, even if the hubs are flippable (which I think they...

    GL no longer able to issue Titles

    DLA would issue the SF97 to GL. GL had to have a dealer's license in order to "assign" the SF97 from them to you the buyer.

    VWM Harness warning

    Please let the vendor know this happened so they can issue a recall and safety bulletin. Sounds like bad quality rubber from, let me guess, an offshore supplier.

    The last under 10grand M1078

    Oh heck no I would not want this. Breakout torque of a Yugo.

    CARC date stamp on door frame?

    I would be highly suspect of data plate swapping. That stamp is applied by Stewart and Stevenson.

    The last under 10grand M1078

    Hub reduction eliminated? So basically 3.90 final drive? Thing must go 80 mph or more.

    1952 M135 W/Winch

    I did not have to remove the rear panel. I had to do some prying and bending, but it went together OK. Memory of this is a little fuzzy, I did this replacement around 1985. There are still a few bolts I have yet to put back, but I will get a round tuit one day.

    Vin# issues M-813

    Have her investigate that vehicles from the 70's and before did not have 15 digit VINs. This should be in her guidebooks. My 5 ton truck has the VIN listed as the C . . . number.
