    M1082 parts?

    If you can, pull the part and take it into any heavy truck/trailer part shop. Its a standard part. Not Military special They should be able to fix you right up.

    M101A2 shock replacement

    Installed new brakes on my other M101A2 yesterday. While underneath bleeding brakes, I noticed one of the shocks has forklift damage. Ive read the old threads on replacement part numbers and it seems the NAPA #NS 76992 is the only true direct fit gas shock replacement shock. Anyone have...

    1009 intro/build from Mn

    It all takes time to absorb for sure. I read about CUCVs/5 tons everyday. Still learning myself. Yea, no tags will guarantee a stop. The K9 sounds like a bit much, but I wasn't there.

    Looking for the correct color interior for M1009

    You know that NOS factory GM CUCV seat covers can be usually found on the classifieds here and on a well known auction site? Both the M1008/M1009 covers for good prices.

    M923A2 CTIS Problem

    ECU wasn't the problem. New one did exact same thing. No leaks still. Guess I will start replacing all valves and pressure switches. Anyone have the pressure switches let me know. New only, no used. Wheel Valves I can easily find.

    Took the M1101 for a tow today

    Good question. I love my M998 I would still take a H1 over a M998 etc. anyday. They are sweet! Also priced accordingly.....

    Took the M1101 for a tow today

    Its been a while since Ive seen an H1 in person and forgot about no pintle. Reciever hitch only explains the nose low. You are correct about them also being a bit nose low on the M998. Still looks good.

    Took the M1101 for a tow today

    Nice setup. Love the H1's I thought the trailer would have been more level with the H1. Looks fairly nose down in that last pic. Tires on H1 smaller?

    Alternatives to Tarp Zippers on M1101

    Chap stick like mentioned. Bar soap works too There is also a product specially to lube zippers. Any good sewing shop will have it. Hobby Lobby should have it also. Woukd rather have zippers than snaps on a tarp anyday.

    GSA find M1028

    Looks like you scored. Another one saved! Anytime you can find one without rust rot is a great day. The truck, while having a few bruises, doesn't have the dreaded GP forklift damage.

    M923a2 no start question

    I'm just shooting from the hip, but what about pressurizing the tank? Not a lot of course. Just enough to help maybe push past whatever is possibly causing a blockage.

    S-280 Shelter. It's final ride

    Local GSA auction Been looking for one for two years and found it 30 miles away. Best thing it was filled with stuff including 2000 weather balloons. Sold all the balloons and it more than paid for the shelter.

    S-280 Shelter. It's final ride

    What I mean is it will not move again. Once its down on the concrete pad, it will be tied down with cables (after paint) and never move. It will serve as a mini cabin in a remote part of the ranch. Has a small frig, gun safe, small desk, military all steel bunk bed and other goodies. No tv...
