    New to the family.....M715! New pics and updates! Now finally finished!

    Last week I picked up a 1968 M715 that I've been in contact with the owner for quite some time. Finally decided to pull the trigger and I'm glad I did ! Great shape, runs sweet, and literally rust-free! Needs some love and lots of little things, and I'm finding parts are quite hard to find. BUT...

    Question about MRAP wheels to super single....

    Ok, I'm fixing to super single my deuce, and I'm most likely going to use the Mrap wheels with adapter plates. Now, with those wheels, I see there are 2 styles, the aluminum and the steel. Seems the aluminum wheels are lighter and quite a bit cheaper BUT they have the CTIS valve on them. Is that...

    Jeep M38A1 radio

    So I recently purchased a 1953 Jeep M38A1 that I'm in the process of working on. Vehicle is all there, NO rust, just fixing the usual issues it had from sitting ( no brakes, gummed carburetor,garbage batteries). It has a rather large radio mast in the left rear corner, and the guy I bought it...

    Ok, first let me say I HAVE searched but I'm not really sure what I'm looking for. My question is : is there SOMEWHERE an article or list that explains the different wheel types? In other words, I'm reading how a HEMTT wheel might fit on a deuce but with some kind of adapter, but some other type...
