    Purchase from Guam or Hawaii

    I've been to Guam and trust me, everything there is rusty, and I mean really really rusty. The salt air on that tiny island eats up everything.

    Km450???

    I just wonder if Kia bought AM General's tooling or did they reverse engineer the trucks from scratch? Many of the new production deuce parts like windshield inner frames are actually made for these trucks.

    Hooks M105A3 recovery

    Very important when picking up at RRAD "Hooks": Bring a copy of your vehicle registration paperwork! They will not let you past the gate without it.

    M44 Deuce Question

    OOOH Rumplecat you may have found something there. If it has wheelwells and NO wide diagonal braces on the outside of the bed over the corners of the cutout, it is a M34 gas deuce bed. If there are the diagonal braces, it is a GMC M135 bed, which is much, much more common. The bolting...

    M900 Series truck section?

    Everyone here will assume you are talking about a 900 series 5 ton 6x6. The CCC/AM General 915-916-920 does not seem to have a "series" lingo attached to it. Maybe the term "line haul" . . .

    They lost my truck!!!!

    Howdr from Dallas,Texas

    Welcome aboard. When you get a chance you need to flip the headlight panels now that you are w/w. The loud bang is not good.

    Why are the GL Deuces from Texas so beat?

    I just cannot understand this? People drop $700-1200 on a truck, then default because they don't like the looks of it? That is a wasteful game to play.

    On the way back from the scrap yard today I took a detour to two local second world war base sites. The first picture is the Administration building for the "Blimp Base" in Hitchcock, TX. At one time there was a huge wooden hangar on the property that a blimp could fit into. It was destroyed...

    As promised, here are the pics of my installation. The bracket is 11 1/2" wide, tapers down to 8", the flange width is 4", and the hang down length is 8 1/4". I recommend holding the bracket next to the holes and tracing to get the holes in the right place. Material is 1/4 plate. So far I have...
