    LeRoi also made the 570, 844 and 884 cubic inch engines used in the old Macks If I recall, Dirt71 had one of his 10 tons that had a large gasser in it. I owned a 1957 Walter snow truck with the LeRoi 884 engine in it. With planatary drive axles the truck got 2-2 1/2 mpg.

    How do you get a title for a untitled deuce in maryland

    MD only gives you one option in getting a title for a vehicle that you don't have a title for, the mechanics lien. Some states also have a bonded title, and basically the mechanics lien is like a bonded title in the you state that the vehicle was abandoned on your property and you want funds...

    Lost completely

    Old forum software vBullitin was a patch work full of security holes. The decision was made to upgrade to a new version to plug the leaks. Is the new version different, yep it sure is. Have we lost some functionality, yes again, but the only thing constant is change. Viewing via Tapatalk...

    LDT 465 Parts ??

    TM 9-2815-204-35 covers the engine assembly and torque values. I'm not sure if the TM is listed as one of the ones on the site, but the new version of software the site is using limits me to less than 10 mb file sizes and the TM is almost 13 mb. As far as other parts, LOGSA can be your friend...

    Exhaust on an MEP 002A ENGINE only....

    The military field laundry units used stainless steel flexible exhaust pipe extenders on the MEP-003A units. They screw onto the fittings from the muffler as they have a pipe thread on them. If I recall correctly, the length is in the 12-15 foot range. The MEP-002 and 003 both all ready have...

    Temporary Insurance Question (Binder Policy)

    I'd make contact with one of the permit companies to get their take on what you wish to do. http://www.truckingstartupservices.com/?gclid=CIfb4pDN7bMCFYtQOgodHhMABw At a minimum, you will need to affix a sign on the side of the vehicle, NOT FOR HIRE. The other safety related equipment, fire...

    M101A3 VIN Number

    Kenny, GL is registered as a used vehicle dealer in FL, and as such, they should be required to issue a title. The issue with the Maine registration is that they won't register newer than a 1995 or 1996 trailer without title. It's time to again start pushing GL to issue a title like any...

    My M101A3

    The treadright tires unless they tell you are military take-offs are re-capped tires. I went to their website and found that they direct you to trailworthyfab site for sales of the 37/12.5x16.5 tires. Contact PTRACEY for tires since he's somewhat in the business.

    first MV - M101a3 - need some help

    The data plate that's on the frame is the one that you should be using. The frame data plate will probably indicate that you have a M116A3 trailer as that is the trailer base configuration. The addition of the box makes what you have a M101. You may be able to use a black magic marker on the...

    Oshkosh MK48 Parts and Info

    I believe the trade name for the bolt you attempted describing is a shoulder bolt. They are not designed to carry a high clamping load due to the reduced thread diameter. High strength fasteners are constructed with a minimal number of threads, typically using rolled threads verses cut...

    Can an M923 pull this?

    I don't think I'd want to tow that trailer using the Dodge dually. As low as the pintle sits, it appears that the trailer would dig into the pavement if you blew a tire on the Dodge. At leasst the M923 or the M915/916 have 12-24K in additional weight over the Dodge which will mean a lot in an...

    Bad day at work

    It works both ways PB. I've handled a few tractor trailer fires where a tube got sucked into the tire and caught the tire on fire burning the entire load. The trailer was carrying 5000 cases of shoe polish. I've seen inner duals get wrapped around the axle on tubeless tires requiring hours...
