So now that you are a pro at re-packing them when do I drop mine off for service?

I think it has a 4BT Cummins and the 4.89 gears too!! Check out his website and I am sure he will chime in about it..LOL

This guy has parts and will do a complete rebuild of your units for you. I have seen some NOS units sell lately and for what they sold for you could have this guy rebuild yours 4 times over.

Try this guy.. http://www.wiperman.com/

It has a ward La France thing going for it..

Ok Dave now thats what you need! Just drop off that Holmes unit over here and I will shoot the new unit green for you.. That thing is awsome!!

After buying fuel to go to FL and back I might have to sell it!

I like it too! Maybe a wrecker body on the back? Looks much better all green..Thanks for posting

Does that make you a Holmie?

Ahhhhh...Thats where the double shackle deal in my head came from.... There are some nice drift pins ! I will be over to get them... LOL.. Maybe I will have to buy another wrecker for the complete wiffle tree? Think that would fly with the wifey? She is still recovering from the first one that I...

Dave ! You have a picture of your set up? I am liking the idea of grade 8ers with lock nuts or pins.. I dont know if I like the whole drift pin idea.. I sure would hate to loose 25k of truck because of a pin waliking out. Didnt you double shackle yours somehow?

RE: pin for wiffle tree Oops missed that.. :oops: Thank you..

RE: pin for wiffle tree Looks simple enough.. Yes, if you could post the measurements that would be nice. So all you are suposed to do is flip up the shackles on the truck and stick the pin through? for some reason I thought there was more to it.. and you use the tow bar with the axle clamps...

Sorry for the hijack.. But... Does anyone have a clear picture of a propper wiffle tree set up? I also have one without the pins. Is there a special set of shackles for the pins to go through and then hook to the shackles on the truck? I need the pin specs also..

Just so I am clear because I get my numbers mixed up and dont have the book in front of me. A M48 is the early gasser long wheel base deuce tractor right? And to go with what gymp said post up what parts you need. I know of a few stashed old gassers.. Cool recovery both for the truck and...

I am going to shy away from this one.. Not really about the price its the lack of info on this guy and some of the records do not look good. So I will keep looking. Thanks for all the comments and if anyone comes up with something let me know please. The best type of truck for this job would be...

seems hight to me.. 3512 miles round trip for me.. At 10 MPG 351.2 gallons x 3.50 a gallon = $1229 bucks. This is going both ways myself.. Seems like I could get them hauled one way for less than $1800 bucks. I think I will keep looking. They all have gensets on them and the deck of the trailer...

Re: RE: Utah to Michigan The can be loaded onto 30' or maybe less. They have both fork truck and loading dock available and are willing to do either. Total weight should be around 6K

I have a bid for $1850 to mover 3 M 116 genset trailers from Hill AFB Utah to Boyne City, Michigan.. What do you guys think? Is this the best I am going to do? This is through Uship.com..
