Parts needed for an M109 in PNW (OR)

[jesusgatos]

I just bought an M109 and there are a few parts that I'd like to pick up for it:

I NEEED a hard top (have an almost brand new soft top for trade plus cash) - BAD

complete gas tank with mounting brackets, fuel pump, etc.

Call Alex at Idaho Motor Pool. I know he has a few fiberglass hard tops left...

He may have some of the other stuff you need (I doubt he will have a winch).

Thanks, but no luck. I really need to find a heater so that I can start to build-out the interior. Can anyone take some pictures and dimensions for me? That way at least I can make sure to save enough space to add one.

Still looking for these parts. I desperately need to find a hardtop. Willing to drive a ways to get it...

I have a winch , PTO, bumper extensions and shaft, also have a new in the box heater kit with the grill blanket and a used fuel tank and brackets (no fuel pump). I'm in Colorado.

 

[jesusgatos]

The winch is probably too heavy to be worth shipping, but let me know what you want for that heater kit. Maybe send me a PM?

pm sent on hard top...

Come on guys - somebody's got to have a hardtop for sale. I can drive to pick one up from anywhere on the west coast and I'm willing to pay fair value. I need to build a roofrack for my motorhome conversion ASAP and I can't start that until I have a top on the truck.

Heater can mount under the passenger seat. I have a coolant run heater in my M109... I put it in last winter and have not had a chance to test here in NC. Good luck on the hardtop, I don't see many that are in good shape for sale often.

Never got those pics you were going to send me.

Thanks for the info. At this point, I think I'm going to get a multi-fuel heater that I can duct into the box as well as the cab.

Jim Grunke at Military Truck in Weiser Idaho had a steel top for sale last year--maybe he still has it or another--If your soft cab cover is the 3 color nylon I may be interested.

Just found Jim Grunke phone#208-549-3400. There's a good chance he may have the other goodies you require.

 

[jesusgatos]

Thanks! I just called and talked to him, but he wants $600 for it. I was hoping to score one for closer to half that. I've seen a bunch of them listed for $300-400, but they're just not anywhere near me.

If you are needing the fuel tank as a spare for the driver side of the truck, a passenger side fuel tank might not work. I was going to try that. Got to looking at where the fill spout would be.... Way under the bed in the back.

If you are hoping to add an additional fuel tank, you will need one that is designed for that side.

 

[waayfast]

You're welcome-- if it is the same one I saw- it was all fixed and painted and ready to bolt on--solid OD --you'd have to scuff and shoot the 3 color but at least the hard work was done.Yeah, us western orphans dont seem to have the parts available like our buddy's back East.

Yeah, it's for the driver's side and it's not going to be a problem the way my truck is set up.

He did say that it was pretty nice, but $600 plus the gas money to go get it is a little bit out-of-reach right now.

I know someone who had one reasonable. I will PM you the contact info I have.

Thanks Yo.
