Fenders are fiberglass, to avoid rust, grill and radiator cover are steel. The hood raises like a regular hood, hinges at the cowl, and the side panels un hook and come completely off for "easy" access. The hatch was used to use whatever flavor bang stick that the SA had at the time. out the top...

We were at Kern River, Limestone campground, and went down to McNalleys for a burger when all of a sudden I see this big ol truck pull slowly into the lot. From the distance it was I thought it was an old MB, but as it got closer, it wasn't! It was a Saurer 2DM. The couple didn't stay long, they...

Four strokes had and have them still. If the engines are operated in an environment that has the capability to produce flammable gasses, oil field, off shore oil rig, refineries, not so much anymore, and some land fills, they are equipped with an engine ECM controlled flapper in the intake...

I saw that. Remember though, this is not an Army Museum, it is the National Guard Museum. Now I am not throwing stones at our Guardsmen, HOWEVER, the wrecker I am currently neck deep in was a NG unit. I can testify that the work performed on this unit was not the best. I am trying to rectify the...

Did a bit more TS on the wrecker. With the help of "soldier B", that would be the @BLK HMMWV guy, he actually stayed off the phone, we located the majority of the air leaks. They were the lines for the rear winch clutch lever. The fittings were falling off! The gauge on the dash says there is...

Thank you sir! I see you are missing the governor actuation link for the rear winch.

I actually reached out to them via phone. Very helpful! They are in process of boxing up ALL of their publications and sending them off to somewhere else, the lady told me where, but, CRS ya know! They said they, their publications, are just taking up space and they want them gone. She said they...

Aren't the M35, M39, M800 tops all the same?

Thank you, Sir!

Update! we got oil back in it last week. Fired it off and gave things a try, nuttin! Oil level is at the full mark on the stick, PTO engaged, trans in 4th for the first try, I got nothing, no hydraulic pump noise, no load on the engine. I rolled under it and started looking around. The ball...

So all 4, correct?

No worries, hurries. this thing isn't going anywhere!

The arm that the rotopac cylinder is attached to that pushes on the arm that is fixed to the cross shaft when the clutch release lever is actuated back at the rear winch station. . This would be looking at the engine/trans from the passenger side, engine to the front. The levers look like...

I still have not found a frame stamped VIN. Looked drivers side between steering box and cab, nothing I can see. The front part of the frame does not have the undercoating stuff like the rest of the frame/undercarriage. IF someone were to want to find a VIN stamp, where would it be? It isn't...

My original thought was that the spades would go there, but I saw no place the make sure things stayed in place at the back of the truck. It would make things easier to remove and put in place from these spots rather than over the bed rails.

Popping in the intake is usually caused by a bent, burnt, out of adjustment intake valve, could have a loose rocker, bent push tube. See if you can verify the cylinder by use of an IR heat gun on the manifold at each cylinder. In the vid, it looks like it has a miss. Looks to be shaking at start...

How were they secured? Any pictures?

They don't look too bad. They are an add on.

That's what they most likely were for, but we have no idea what. They did make some staves that slip into the bow pockets to stow the long support bars. There are no anchor points on either side of the ring , from the cab to the rear of the frame, so that if something was stowed there, it...

I think it is a 1 inch bar. I used a lug wrench bar on the outrigger to level the truck. It is actually easy, but time consuming.
