I have recently acquired a 1964 USMC M38A1. (I will upload some pics as soon as I become acquainted with the new site and system). It is mostly original retaining the 24volt system, engine, drivetrain (with the exception of an aftermarket overdrive). Painted desert tan camp, which I know is...

This one goes way back and you had to be a long time member to know Joe. He bought and sold military vehicles, mainly M35a1 and a2s, and was an early member and contributor to this site. I bought a M35a2 from Joe in the early 2000s. Before the internet was so prolific, men like Joe were an...

Hi Fellas!! Good to be back. Prolonged absence probably requires an explanation: Had a heart attack in '07 which caused me to be out of work for a while. Financial challenges followed. However, worse part was post-cardiac depression. It is a real condition but took a manly man (translation...

Did a search but could not find the answer. How do you engage the front wheel drive? Looking at a 1952 CCKW and will need the front drive. Is it full time? sprag? lever? Thanks JR

This may be a members truck. If not, has anyone else ever made the mod.? I need a deuce to maneuver into very tight construction areas and still have the duals to carry weight (am setting concrete yard blocks). This setup looks just like the ticket. However, (as referenced in a previous...

I noticed a couple of the "shorty Deuce" on ebay. My question is does anyone know how they handle? I assume a bobbed deuce would have characteristics similar to any other dually. However, by retaining the dual wheel setup closer to the front wheels, does it try to push the front straight...

Don't want to clutter the board with personal messages; however, Frank, my good buddy, please check your PMs and see if you are receiving new ones. Need to get up with you on a deuce. Thanks JR

Had a roadtrip come up for this weekend. I am flying to Providence RI on Friday and driving back a F350 during the weekend. I will be loaded with 3 wood stoves but may have some room for other items. Do a mapquest on Providence RI to Clarkesville, GA and that is my route. I may swing in to...

I purchased a truck in Feb. 2008 and the EUC process took a long time. I checked my account on a daily basis and, until this very day, my account says that no invoice will issue until the EUC clears. About 36 hours ago I received a notice from GL that my invoice is unpaid and if the funds are...

Hi Y'all. changing out the secondary fuel filter and can't find correct size gaskets. Anyone have some extra? Source? Thanks JR

As you will note by the other post, I am working on the Deuce. I bought this truck from Joe Young (a member) who bought her from Bruce (BKubu). The truck has a tag on the dash under the data plate that states: MMD General Support Repair Program October 1995 The plate is bright aluminum about...

Worked on the deuce this weekend to bring her in good shape for logging, etc. Here's the problem: She will not idle under 1500 rpm. Have to pull out the throttle to keep the engine going. Had a "diesel mechanic" look at it and he said he had no idea.... so I tackled it using the K.I.S.S...

I had recently noted references to late model "Air Force" trucks that seemed to have more upgrades and one particular external feature of the lidded exhaust.... Are these trucks limited to the Air Force bases or maybe Guard units? Can they be found on Army or Marine bases? For instance is this...

Hi Y'all. I may be getting back into the timberframe business (closed last Feb. because of a fire at the mill that destroyed most of the equipment and inventory). Need a small fleet of trucks for construction: dumptruck (already possess M35A2); logging truck(already possess M35A2)...

Hey Y'all; Still have the idle problem with the deuce. My son (Ga_Deuce) had originally posted the problem but we still can't figure it out! Truck did not want to idle so I had to run it up over 1100rpm's to drive it. Kept the throttle open. To shut it down, all I had to do was close the...

I sent a couple of emails and a pm(got an error message) about your truck... Like to hear from you if still for sale. Thanks Robb

I know nothing about Dodge trucks, but thought this might be an interesting looksee: http://cgi.ebay.com/Dodge-WC62-1-1-2-ton-6x6-military-truck-not-M37-M35_W0QQitemZ6605342929QQcategoryZ418QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Hey Guys: We discussed this problem once before, but still: Deuce will not idle under 1200 rpms. I have to set the throttle at least that high to keep it running. Per your suggestions: New fuel filters(others where almost new, but changed out just in case) and ran some injector cleaner thru...

Working a deal with Berg....Can I still run duals with 395/85R20 Michelin XML's? Carry alot of weight, so I can't single out.... Thanks JR
