    We did! It’s called Steelsoldiers and rather than stringing WD1 between our houses we use the Internet!!!

    M1097A2 won't start - acting like it is in gear.

    86 M998 Starting Issue

    Sounds like your ignition switch is bad. Easy enough to ohm it out.

    Why is the roof angled?

    Mobility Trailer.

    Very nice! Can you explain what these are used for?

    Master Cylinder, brake fluid geyser

    I have a sneaky suspicion that the adjustment is too far off. Shoes need to be nearly dragging.

    Missing Data Plates

    Here is what you are working with, the T-138 transfer case. The red circled rod is what has to move in and out to shift. It does not turn. There is a small square access cover which you might be able to remove and send in an inspection camera, I have never done this.

    Missing Data Plates

    Definitely need to verify that the xfer hi low range shift rod is moving from detent to detent and it’s not a linkage issue. Almost nothing can be repaired inside the xfer from the outside and it’s no fun to pull it and split it open. Good luck.

    Master Cylinder, brake fluid geyser

    Did you adjust the new shoes? I can see this happening if all the cylinders have to retract a huge distance.

    Sparks and Smoke from above steering wheel, now no "Wait" or "Brake" Indicator

    Did the jack pop up under the truck and contact the starter motor causing the fireworks?

    Missing Data Plates

    Yes see TM-9-2320-211-10 in the M39 series folder. I might warn you, as you start using this crane, you must follow the load chart to the letter, the hoist and boom hydraulics will lift far more than the boom and superstructure can handle.

    Missing Data Plates

    Bummer. Those plates will be very difficult to find. You will need to find someone parting one of these out. Try Memphis Equipment and Red River Parts. The TM for this truck should be in the TM section on this site and there will be pictures of the plates and operation instructions.

    M1031 Parts Valuation

    Most value for those items is to leave them in place and sell the truck to someone who wants a M1031. Then use the proceeds to buy the M1008 you want.

    Does anyone know where to find a diagnostic tool for the 4L80E? I

    By ring out I mean to check that each wire in the harness has continuity from one end to the other. No fraying or bare spots.

    I would ring out the harness between the controller and the 4L80E. Sounds like you got an intermittent connection.

    Ser# ?

    They are correct, those changes happened in 1954 but not on Jan 1. Data plate is 100% original Willys.

    M1079 start button won't trigger the starter.

    Do you have both 12 and 24 volts present at the power points at the PDP? Did this truck just develop this issue or did you get it this way from surplus?

    Ser# ?

    Is there any evidence that the numbers in both plates were stamped by someone other than Willys Motors? If not you are good to go. The hinged grille and thumbscrew battery box changed in ‘54.

    Teletypewriter

    That tty was the mainstay of communications during the entire cold war period, like 1950s until the 1970s. In the US they were called TT-98. Every Ratt Rig (radio teletype) had two of them in a shelter on the back of 3/4, 5/4, or 2 1/2 ton trucks. Nice find!
