A really good looking truck. Thanks for helping save it.

There is apparently a collectors market for WW II jerry cans. Many different makers and as I found out, slight differences from maker to maker. Occasionally you can catch the appropriate cans at garage sales.

You need a light bulb to simulate the idiot light in the dash. It will self energize then.

It is worth having the later transmission if finances allow.

I know this isn't really useful but.. This is one of the few drawbacks to using military equipment in volunteer fire departments. Personnel need training using these trucks but probably won't get it or won't pay attention. I made a cheat sheet for our M35a2 but still only a select few are...

Very nice.

That is a job well done. The people on this site are wonderful about helping others.

Check the internet, Vintage Air comes to mind. A heater for old trucks will do for your purposes. You can source a 24v blower motor.

I would save up money and buy the Banks kit. Will save a lot of frustration.

That is a job well done. I'd try to put a drain plug in it. It's really handy to have.

Looks like a Reo gas engine to me. They are good running engines as far as I know.

A useful and well written article.

Dog dip will work. Gets rid of your fleas and bed bugs too.

I'd keep looking. Ask large truck repair shops who they use.

That is a good looking truck.

Get a box end wrench that fits. Heat and bend the handle 90 degrees cut the handle and weld a 1/2" drive extension to the cut wrench handle. Oh, use the box end, not the open end. Previous older thread has this information.

I suggest using 40wt diesel oil AFTER you check oil pump and relief valve. Oil analysis is a good idea for longer term information.

Try warming the pistons in a hot water bath. The pins should go in without undue force.

Thanks for the EV fire information. I'll pass it on at the next VFD meeting.

I'd leave it and kick the chain under the seat when driving. Use it for parking to keep the pinheads away. Get 3 keyed alike padlocks. Use one for the steering wheel, one for the spare tire carrier, and the last on the hood chain if you have such.
