    M109 window falling apart... Rebuildable?

    I have a M109 that a couple of the van windows are coming apart and was wondering if anyone had any tips as far as trying to rebuild them.

    GL Gripes....

    Hi, I feel like ranting... sorry. :rant::soapbox: I thought maybe I imagined it the 1st time it happened but the 2nd auction it happened again and I knew for sure... the end time was supposed to be at X:XX o'clock but instead ended over and hour later and by doing so drove up the price...

    Moving a Deuce in the Dallas area

    Anyone have a way to move a deuce around in the Dallas, TX area or know someone who does? It isn't running and need to get it to a mechanic. I was referred to a guy in Kaufman and the truck is in within Dallas proper. Any mechanic referrals welcome as well. Thanks guys.

    m35a2 insurance... need advice

    I have a 109... If you were to take it camping, out to get a burger or to haul some groceries every blue moon (probably what it would be used for mostly) would Haggerty have issues w/ that? If so it would make me question if they really expect you to drive it at all...

    Flat towing a deuce chassis

    Can you get a flat trailer suitable to load a Deuce onto that fits on a Deuce's hitch? (pintle?) If so would that work or would the weight be too great on the hitch of the Deuce towing the 2nd?

    Look what followed my deuce home today - Big Guns...

    How often do those come up on GL? :) I am sooooooooooo jealous! Hmmm, and to think one of my neighbors hates the idea of a deuce being parked in my drive... I'd LOVE to see the look on their face :shock: when they got home from work to find the barrel of the long tom jutting out over the...

    Just got a Deuce from GL...

    Thanks for the info I'll have to check into that. Motorcar... do you know if they had something like this in the SA lot? Tinwoodsman, I know during a "recovery" from the GL auctions it is normal to find things that you weren't expecting. I think I was just a little more sensitive b/c more than 1...

    slobber tube

    Probably noob question... I see that someone said that the slobber tube/road draft tube is necessary as it coats the underside in oil to aid in rust prevention but when I first saw the open tube leading from the turbo and the mess of oil on the underside my first thought was to make a catch can...

    Just got a Deuce from GL...

    Thanks for the advice... I'm hoping that it won't be as bad as I'm imagining it to be now... I don't suppose you looked at this one while you were on the lot did you? If so did you have any other info on other problems you may have noticed? Thanks again guys

    Just got a Deuce from GL...

    I hope so.... I really want one but was hoping to get her for a good deal or at least know what I paid for it in runniong condition. Now I'm wondering what all has to be done to get her up and running and how much more $ it will take to do so. I was hoping to go through GL to avoid ebay prices...
