I've tried several search tries to find the thread or posting on shifting the CAT transmission in the 920. can anyone point me in the right direction? I'm sure I overlooked something. I have a chance of picking up either a 916 or a 920, to move heavy stuff around. The 916 is a 79 and shows...

Welder- You are correct! That was "Memorial field" south of Chandler. it was on the edge of the Indian reservation, and all sorts of spook stuff went on there in the 70's and early 80's DEA etc. Did the PM function break for O/T?

These pictures were taken at Coolidge, AZ airfield (P08) The Army declared an airfield to be built, and in 1942, 9 months later there were 5,000 people here on 2 square miles working on planes as an All-Service aircraft maint. base. It's home now to the Marines Primary Jump Training, and...

133 is an old H&P bird that was ferried down with a cracked center section, purchased for spares. The APU still works so it makes a good engine test stand. 88 is an old Fire bomber out of some company in CA that the name escapes me. it's been sitting since 1988. The center section on it is...

Now that would be EPIC!!

Today was the day for Albert/M35A2-AZ and his lovely wife to drop by and drop off my new 5-ton rear cargo cover kit from Popacom. Brand new in the box, excellent price. Turns out, I had to move 2 old C-130's so Albert and I set to work. Due to where we were moving them, there was no way I was...

I ended up using 5 gallons and part of a case. that was for a fill, and flush & refill. I found out you can drain more out if you let the truck sit for a few days, the torque converter drains down to around half maybe after time. after sitting, it showed maybe 3 inches above full on the...

That will work. When I serviced mine, everything was low. I ended up using 3 gallons of 80/90 from front to back, kinda surprised me.

Thanks for the correction on Owl's head. It's not a correct restoration as you can see, the cockpit was re-done with some modern comforts and updated panel, 2 GPS's 2 Comm's etc. The plane was painted in the honor of a family friends' Uncle Edwin Vance, who was shot down in a P-51 on June...

Congratulations! It runs and drives, you're already half-way there! Looks nice. I want one!!

N3N's are awesome little planes. I have a picture somewhere of my Old hangar filled with them back in the 40's. I'll see if I can find it.

Thanks! You'd need a pretty good acronym to remember all that.

oops, transposition typo on the 5 & 3. popcorn is good.. Good thing I wasn't typing the firing order on a Pratt & Whitney R-4360

Is the Owl's Head Transportation museum in NH? This airplane used to be in the museum there, and was for a time in the Pensacola Naval Air museum on loan from Patty Wagstaff who owned it for a time.

I love Round motors, and flat motors and Cummins :beer:

I believe #1 is up front, 6 in the rear 1-3-5-6-2-4 firing order.

I always thought of this as an airplane, not a MV, but I guess it is... I purchased this T-6 in 2006 and restored it. Took about 3000 man hours to complete. It still has all the original skins, and will just blind you in the sun. It's the only restoration I've ever done, just because of the...

I love your halftrack! When I was a kid in the 60's my dad bought one similar to this with the rounded fenders that had a grain box/bed put on the back for hauling wheat. I rode in it with my mom during harvest, it was a real mudder, and would throw mud everywhere leaving the field. It wasn't...

I couldn't find this mentioned on any search. The Allison guy I talked to awhile back regarding a fluid change and filter on the M923A1 mentioned the Allison Polyester filter for 600 series Tranny's. it's a sort of service bulletin to change to this style in the Allison shop whenever they open...
