    Loadout needed in Fort Polk LA

    PM "oldmechanic", he's right there at the base also. Or, send motor freight for a pickup. The girls at DRMO Polk will work with you.

    m1009 no start

    Sorry bout that, if the starter cranks when you jump the start relay, it can be assumed the batteries and the cables are good. Sounds like you will have to poke around with a voltmeter until you find where the circuit is broken. I just had the opposite problem, the ignition power stayed on...

    window changeout

    The guy UPS'd the door without packing it in anything at all? That is just irresponsible. It needed to be contained in several layers of cardboard. As far as the window, I've just gave it a good whack with both fists in the upper corners to pop it past the weatherstrip. Other...

    m1009 no start

    Check all the battery post connections and also the ring terminals where the cables connect to the bus on the firewall. Sounds like a simple problem. The starter switch on the steering column is very rugged and would be way down on the list.

    6602 parts

    Filter is the military standard senior oil filter, equiv of Fram C31. That is about all besides points that you will get locally. Most dealers have scrapped the 6602 stuff due to zero demand. But some still have some stuff, try Niagara Military Parts. Plugs are the usual military shielded...

    Ziggy's M915A1 recovery

    Crane Carrier Corporation. They originally designed the truck, and AM General built it. Nice to give credit for a classic, beautiful design . . .

    400 trumps 250 and Allison kills Cat

    Thanks for the report, reb87. I too have been amazed with the Allison. Driving the A1 is almost like the family car. Bob-tail it will just run like a scalded dog! The only thing lacking is one of those Red Dot air conditioning units. I think my deuce is gonna get parked for a while...

    are there any...

    Your best bet is probably Government Liquidation, there are numerous trucks coming up at Ft Sam in San Antonio. Take a day off work and drive down there and see what you are getting yourself into. The winch trucks have been bringing over 2K, but usually $1600. If you plan on getting...

    Welcome to the site. Are you looking for a u-fix project, a fresh from uncle sam adventure, or ??? There are several auction options: Government Liquidation (Govliquidation.com), GSA (GSA.gov), and local government (see your newspaper legal/auctions section). As for a u-fix project...

    Finally Bought an XM211 Deuce! 8-)

    I am not sure about this but I thought the Y oil filler pipe was super early production on the M135. I have only seen one of those and hundreds of the usual kind. Nice truck by the way, that is how you hope to find them, so you don't have to fix every single thing and get burned out in the...

    Starting mystery...

    Wiggle the silver start relay under the dash next to the STE/ICE connector. IF no joy, then it may be no good. Welcome to the site, back to the USA, and hello from a former Mill Valley resident . . .

    Bought a M915A1 today

    Well the M915A1 arrived from Wright-Patterson today, and I am still on cloud 9. Runs, drives, stops, knee deep matched rubber, full tank of diesel, 4 new 6MTFs, full maintenance records including a diskette?, nothing broken or smashed or bent. The bad? Well there is occasional surface rust...

    Trying to id a buzzing sound

    The cut out does not normally buzz, it clicks when it kicks the compressor on, that can happen minutes, hours, or days after you shut the truck off, depending on how tight your air system is. Sounds like your has issues. If air is coming out of it somewhere, replace it, it is a safety...

    That is extremely hard to find on the loose. Call Army Cars up in Spooner WI and see if they can get you one from Belgium.
