I'm 70 miles southwest of you. What is the camo pattern called that is used on these Air Guard trucks? I need to get some tan or brown that will match.
I sold an M37 on ebay and the buyer is in Orange, CA. I told him I would check around and see what his options are for getting it shipped. Can anyone reccomend a good company? Or has anyone used one of the internet sites where you take bids to get something hauled?
Thanks
I was wondering if you could burn used oil in these? A guy selling them on ebay says you can but I thought I would check before I bought one. I figured I might need to add some diesel to thin the oil out. Or if anyone here has one for sale let me know.
Thanks
The two 5 ton multifuels we had didn't do good with 11.00x20's. If you are wanting to run at highway speed I would get the cummins. There is a world of difference between the two engines.
My GL account was suspended last year because the girl working on my EUC would not return my calls to tell me what was wrong with my paperwork. She did call me the day after she put my account into default which was the same day she quit working for GL.
Do a search on propane conversions and you will find several companies that will help you out. I looked on ebay and there are plenty of parts under propane and impco. An Impco 425 mixer (carburetor) is probably bigger than you need but is the most popular. We had a 637 cubic inch GMC that had a...
You will lose a couple of miles per gallon with LP. But here in Illinois LP is at least $1 a gallon cheaper so it evens out. If you could get the conversion pieces for cheap I would do it. We have several engines running on LP and they work great. The biggest problem with dual fuel is the...
I asked earlier about 12.00x20 tires, but the fire department has decided to go with 11.00x20 since they are easier to find. If anyone has any they want to sell let me know. They would be looking for 8-10 tires.
Thanks,

Our local fire department is looking for four12.00x20 tires for a fire truck. I was looking at some Michelins on Ebay but thought I would check here too. They would also be interested in the regular military tread. 11.00x20 or metric sizes that are close would be fine too.
Thanks,

Just Google Worthington Ag Parts. Click on online salvage. Search under tractor, White, 2135 or 2155. I would want to see one in person before I spent too much money.
Worthington Ag Parts has several White 2-135 tractors for salvage. I didn't call to check the price but if you want spin on filters that looks to be the way to go.
If you live in farm country try looking on tractorhouse.com or other equipment sites. There may be a White 2-135 close to you to look at. I looked at one a couple of years ago and I think the oil filter casting is different than the one used on the multifuel.
We have two of the U shaped wrenches. One is a longer with a 45 degree bend and the other has a 90 degree bend. It blew the fire ring out last time. I haven't seen it yet this time. I agree the brakes work fine. Everytime I ask a question that guy tells me the brakes were designed in the 1930's...
Thanks for the replys. Does anyone know if a multifuel is prone to blowing the head gasket at the front of the engine or is there a chance the block has a bad spot? We had the heads planed when we fixed it the last time so I was hoping that would be the end of it. We also used the new style...
The last time I asked a question you told me the brakes are crap. The reason he is thinking about changing is because the multifuel has blown a head gasket at the front of the block twice and he is afraid it might happen again. I guess I should ask what needs to be done to put a 250 cummins in...
I have a friend who is looking at putting a 3126 CAT into a 5 ton. I'm sure this has been covered several times but I was wondering if anyone has any tips or pictures. Or is there a better engine to swap in? Thanks for any help.
I was wondering where to buy a detroit locker for a 5 ton rear. I have a friend who is using a single axle in the back and thought it would help to have a locker.
Thanks in advance.
