    Looking for canvas transmission and transfer case shifter boots.

    I am looking for the M35a2 canvas transmission and transfer-case shift boots to use on my Suburban that is mostly made of M1009 parts. I had emailed Jatonka at a member's advice but I haven't heard anything back. Any help is appreciated!

    6.2L injection pump gear dots.

    I have searched and I cannot find an answer so here we go. I picked up an M1008 engine to go in my Suburban and the engine sat for a long time with the air cleaner off, so I tore it down and put in new bearings and gaskets. So here is my question, I have the dots on the timing chain lined up...

    Bobbed M109a3

    While looking for a M109a3 I came across the attached picture and it looks like a bobbed a M109a3 is a neat idea. The truck would lose some weight and the additional fuel tank and tool boxes are never a bad thing. Has anyone tried bobbing a shop van and if you did which springs did you go with?

    Deuce from Indiana to southern California quote.

    I am considering purchasing a shop box Deuce and wanted to see if anyone wants to get it from Indiana to Twentynine Palms California. It runs and is in good shape by the add/pictures.

    New here in California, for now!

    I recently moved to Twentynine Palms Ca and have noticed a shortage of military vehicles around here. Within the year I am hoping to sell one of my bikes in order to purchase a M109A3 or a M35a2 with an expandable shop body on it. Is there anyone close that has a truck I could look over and...
