    My new M16A2 Half Track

    Nice find. Looks like it has had some restoration work done. The pulpit does not belong on a M16A2. The fuel tanks and covers are fabricated. I would put the quad 50 back in it before making it back into a M3. Truckingdeals.com from Palestine TX will get you a reasonable haul rate. I...

    Contact Maint Air Comp Motor Capacitor

    ??? The only contact maintenance compressor that is single phase is the SECM slide in for the HMMWV. The compressor is a Hydravane and the motor is frame 145TC. Any Baldor dealer should be able to get the cap MFD from the motor model no. Mine was missing the capacitor and local motor shop...

    G.I. Robo tool set.... what to offer?

    DONT WASTE YOUR $ ON A ROBO! I did, even the 3/4 has no a--, an air tool will kick it's butt, hopeless on Budd lugs, hit the pawn shops and lowball them on an Ingersoll Rand, that's the way to go.

    Well,I got another M172A1 trailer

    I have a spare set of ramps cheap if your can tolerate the motor freight charges to get them to you. Not rusty, not bent, no wood. PM me if interested. You don't need the extender feet with a 5 ton or 915, the legs are long enough.

    P.T.O Removal on M35

    Please show us some pictures of this. I regularly use the stock Garwood with a 3 part line for 40,000 lb pulls of belly down stuck Cat D7s etc. Hard to believe a Chinese made Mile Marker would out pull that.

    What is this truck? and more questions?

    The other pic in your profile shows the winch, you probably know from ebay those are quite pricey these days. The sheet metal looks good. If she ran 2 years ago, she will run again now. Mine sits for years (indoors) and comes right to life again. $1500 is reasonable, but that is also what GL...

    M-762 Trailer

    Welcome to the site! That looks to be the most useful 762 I have ever seen. I like what you did with the M37 bows, very professional. I bet it will follow your Cherokee anywhere.

    CUCV Bucket Seats - Some ???s

    Got some questions for you CUCV experts: Are the 1009 Blazer and 1010 Ambulance the same seats? What civilian Chevy/GMC did these come out of, someone told me S-10? The reason I am kicking this around for my 1008 is to make room between the seats for the HMMWV a/c kit evaporator. Can you...

    M1009: Old style camo or newer?

    Still in this scheme? They were all painted at GM with the 3 color CARC NATO camo.

    What is this truck? and more questions?

    The 109 box will bolt perfectly to the frame brackets. The winch, wheels, and lighting is the same as M35A2. I would air up the tires to at least 20 psi and flat tow that sucker any day. They are all pre-silicone brake fluid so count on a 100% brake system rebuild which is a huge amount of...

    Is it possible the alternator itself is defective?

    200 amp HMMWV alt in CUCV?

    Those dual voltage 100 and 200 amp alternators with the 12 and 24 volt outputs, has anyone used one of those to replace the stock CUCV setup? Seems like it might me more reliable? You could use the HMMWV bracket I would guess.

    Can a m725 be converted to a m715

    The chassis, powertrain, front clip and steering/instruments are the same. You will need to find a donor 715 for a cab and bed. You are right, the 725 is clumsy off road.

    Nice to see the precision laser demil cuts. Ready for the furnace.

    Sale 4991- EUCs stuck at GL?

    I have worked with Linda and crew at Ft Polk for years now and trust me they are the cream of the crop when it comes to GL employees. She is not at Camp Beauregard, but at Ft Polk, one hour away. Linda has to get the LANG guys to do the loadouts at the "yard behind the prison", and those guys...

    882 Im looking at

    That rust on the cab corners is just the tip of the iceberg. Once you get to poking the sheet steel that holds the windshield in will be in disasterous shape. This is all very difficult to fix. My first cab rusted out there, so i bought a second rust free cab and blasted and zinc chromate...

    Well,now I own a 915A1

    They replace everything rubber or worn in the pump, all the rubber parts are over 30 years old, about $400. Main part that ruptures is the diaphram that senses boost pressure.

    M1008A1 Gets a Lift!

    Well, based on the advice from this thread, I've decided to give the 37" Wrangler MT mod a go. First order of business was finding the 8 hole 16.5 Budd wheels 8.5" wide. Found a set today at a local 4x4 shop. Have you ever seen tires more flat than these? 40" "Gumbo Monster Mudders", must...

    M 880 Facts

    The three lever switch overrides the normal headlight switch. It does not replace it. To add to the thread, 40" monster mudders will not fit on a stock M880. :cookoo:
