    Considering an M211 purchase

    Price is a good question. It depends. If the owner is/was in love with the truck they might ask too much just because. I have heard the line a few years ago – Well the scrap price is so and so – good thing metal prices have gone down. If it is not rusty like you say, (No Pictures!), and...

    Considering an M211 purchase

    The shifting in low is done by the same components in the front of the transmission as for high. Shifting to low engages the reduction unit in the rear of the transmission. So you may be okay.

    Considering an M211 purchase

    You should be able to shift from low to high without the truck stopping. If you start out in High F1 does it shift normal through the gears?

    Considering an M211 purchase

    Normally the difference between Hilly (F2 High ) and Normal (F1 High) is when the automatic shifts happen. F2 High will hold the transmission in a lower gear longer. But all the shifts should happen without touching the shifter. You can go from Low range to High range at any road speed...

    M135 starter problem????

    Does your truck still have the lever you pull back on to make the starter work? On my M211 that lever pushes the rods underneath the cab to make the bendex go out to the ring gear. Then it also pushes on the switch for the power. Is your linkage from the lever free?

    M135 transmision maybe destroyed from towing-First post

    The Army Manual states to not tow the M135/M211 more than 5 miles without dropping the drive shafts or transmission damage will result. Sorry to say.

    Petaluma M135 Pics

    Nice! I see it has a Reb Shifter. The cargo cover looks like maybe a command type top with the plastic windows? Never seen that before. Alan

    XM215 Dump Box Question

    It’s up to you. But ask yourself will you be constantly seeing that ding or can you forget it? If you will be haunted by it then fix it. Alan

    Hydra Matic Transmission Videos

    I have worked my way to half way though #4. Then got too sleepy in the evening. :| I am learning a lot though. That ring compressor tool is a must have if you are working on that transmission.

    I cleaned out my cooler. I took the cover off the front and ran water inside. There was some black gunk in there. I did like a few others have and used an old hack saw blade and slid that up underneath the oil cooler and ran the hose at the same time. Then drained the transmission oil...
