It was suggested to start a thread to plan our fall rally. I'm proposing a mini-rally, Fri-Sat-Sun and have several dates to propose: Option 1: September 21,22,23 Option 2: September 28,29,30 Option 3: October 12,13,14 Option 4: October 26,27,28 I'm pretty good for any of these dates...

I posted a wanted add a while back for some 12.00r20 tires. I have a set of 6 of them on my singled out M275A2 but I don't have a spare. Simp5782 pointed out that the MRAP Maxxpro runs 12.00r20 duals in the rear and 395/85r20 on the front axle. Does anyone know if the gear ratios are the same...

I have a set of M135 wheels that I'm wanting to run on my M275A2 tractor. I will be flipping the rear hubs and installing 12.00R20 Michelin XML's. The M135 wheels that I have measure about 1-1/4" less in backspacing than stock deuce wheels. They're not in the greatest shape, and wanted to see...

I am going to wheel my M1009 at Haspin Acres again on Saturday, December 30th. Right now it's only small trucks. Big trucks would be welcome, and can probably fit on most of the trails we will run, but I can't guarantee recovery for the big boys. Looks like right now maybe 3 or 4 vehicles...

I bought a set of M135 wheels that need a ride from Morgantown, NC to anywhere closer to Indianapolis. 6 wheels, can be taken loose or strapped on a pallet, whichever facilitates the ride. No hurry, was wondering if anyone might be coming this way in the next month or two. I've never used...

I'm going down to Haspin Acres Off-Road Park in Laurel, IN on Saturday, November 11 2017 for a day of off-roading. I've got a few SS members interested in meeting up that day and a few other friends in non-MV's that want to try off-roading for the first time. Anybody is invited to come if...

I recently purchased a M275A2 deuce tractor from another member. Finally got it running today, and figured I'd post the story so far. Here is how the truck looked when I first saw it: Here is the seller helping me get it out of the field to ship it home: Then finally got it home right...

I'm finally getting another MV (I've been without for the last year). I'm flying in to pick it up in northern VA and then driving it back to the Indianpolis area. Most of the trip will be along I-70, and the truck will be registered/insured before the trip. Here are some pictures and info on...

Here are a couple of pics and videos of my truck in the snow. Videos are linked to photobucket.com http://s609.photobucket.com/user/shrapnel1/media/IMG_03471.mp4.html http://s609.photobucket.com/user/shrapnel1/media/OFF%20ROAD%20PICS/IMG_03461.mp4.html

My M932A2 doesn't have the delivery date on the serial number tag. Is there anything on the frame somewhere that will tell me the year? The GL posting listed it as a 1991, but I can't find anything to back it up. The older the better for me, as it gets me closer to having antique plates (once...

I'm scheduled to pick up my M932a2 from the Tibbs Ave. facility in Indianapolis this coming Wednesday afternoon. When I previewed the trucks (I looked at 30+ trucks) I started several of them, but the truck I won wasn't one that I personally have started. It's listed as a running truck, and it...

I'm not sure which area to post this in, but there is a mud bog at the Calhoun Creek Offroad complex in Abbeville, SC on 3/24/2012. 1689 Hwy 71, Abbeville, SC Starts at 2pm, $5 spectator fee (see attached flyer). I'm thinking I'll take my M1028 down and maybe play around a bit (cost is $20 if...

I've sold my M1010 and currently don't have a CUCV, but I've gotten a few PM's and emails through this site recently asking for pictures. I don't feel like emailing pictures to the whole world, but I figured a M1010 pic thread would be nice. If you have an M1010 and have some pics, load 'em...

Here are some pictures of my M1010 sitting on 37's. I've been driving it (mostly street) for about 2 months on the hummer tires. I had to trim the fenders decently to make it work without any lift, but I was able to keep the inner fenderwells. I also had to adjust the steering stop so that my...

I'm new to the diesel world with my recently acquired M1010 ambulance. I'm interested in running WMO or WVO. My fuel system is currently stock with the cartridge filter system. I've had the truck for just over two months and drive it about 100 miles a week so far. If I got good at sourcing...

When I went to fire up my M1010 this morning it was around 70°F and the truck had been parked in the shade. I turned on the ignition and waited for the WAIT light to shut off. It seemed to take forever. I finally got tired of waiting and cranked the engine. Took me three times to get it to...

Here are some pics of a M1010 I just picked up as my first MV. I've followed this website a while and finally jumped in with both feet! This M1010 has been converted to 12V (batteries are wired in parallel) but the box lights and box A/C unit still function. The fuel-fired heater doesn't do...
