    Oshkosh Snow plow W/ frozen motor

    Correct! Also if you contact the factory with your truck number they have all the build sheets and will make a copy for you. Clarence Jungwirth did mine for "Eve," truck No. 1198 and I found out it was completed December 24, 1937 so I call "her" Eve. Forgot the details on the '47 W-2201 other...

    Oshkosh Snow plow W/ frozen motor

    Knew I had something Hall Scott 1091 + WT-2206 and found it! What serial number?! If it falls between 6440 and 6599 (150 trucks!) this is THE "Parts List!" Can't wait to hear your youtube video of it running! Larry

    Oshkosh Snow plow W/ frozen motor

    Found it! "This publication presents Operating, Operator Maintenance, and Service Instructions for the WT2206 Snow Plow, Truck Mounted Snow Removal Vehicle, manufactured by Oshkosh Truck Corporation...." Bummer (sort of) it covers Cat 3406 and 1693 T and TA engines. In the back servicing the...

    Oshkosh Snow plow W/ frozen motor

    I have a W2206 operator's and service manual here somewhere...., was a fire truck! Can't remember what engine, going to look now.... Hall-Scott 1091's were very popular in fire trucks and those boys are always swapping them, rebuilding them, etc. restoring their fire trucks. Now where did I see...

    Oshkosh Snow plow W/ frozen motor

    I have seen worse from bulldozers in the spring before we started them! Sometimes they sat for a year or more until a need arose to resuscitate them. SOP: crack the drain plugs on the oil pans, bottom of gear boxes, hydraulic reservoirs, etc. before cranking them up and mixing the oil and...

    I'm shure another brake fluid question

    I'm a few weeks late but... ...lots of similar DOT-5 silicone brake fluid threads in Harley Davidson motorcycle forums. Most but not all Harley's take DOT 5 it turns out. Bright purple when new and all the same color worries, does my model use 5 or 4, yes, no, maybe, flush and etc...

    M920 Wet kit

    Actually you can just rebuild the jaws and replace them with 2" and keep the top plate. You would be able to swap the 3.5" back in if ever needed. I got a FW35 (off the top of my head, was a few years ago) military surplus Holland 2" fifth wheel and slider setup and thought I might be able to...

    20" beadlock runflat inserts

    I have been struggling with Michelin 12.00R20 XML's mounted on Stryker beadlocks with runflats in them. I took a chain saw to three of them. Wrestled, cussed, and used 4x4 physics (Jeep and nylon strap) and still have at least six more to do. Maybe two ratchet straps next. One goes crooked...
