    1952 M135 W/Winch

    It has been a busy year and I just realized it has almost been that long since I posted any progress. Progress has been slow, but I am back at it again. Finally got the inside of the cab sanded and primed along with a lot of other parts and hope to paint inside the cab next weekend. The...

    G749 Parts List

    Just a quick update to let everyone know I have not forgot about or abandoned this list. I got a new computer in December that did not come with MS Office. MS Office 2019 is supposed to be released soon and that is the hold up. I'm thinking about adding exploded views of each component of the...

    Bitumen paint (sealant) on front differential hardware...

    The red paint was definitely put on over that coating. I don't believe these trucks were ever in use by the Marine Corps.

    Bitumen paint (sealant) on front differential hardware...

    I do not know if this was standard practice, but one of my four M135s (truck #5314) possibly had this all over the frame, axles and wheel wells. It was all sandblasted off last year because I didn't like the way it looked.

    G749 preservation

    What a neat find!! Thank you for letting us join in on the excitement of opening up those crates. I've got a question about Gander's instrument cluster. Is the panel new or did you guys paint the Low Range/High Range, Oil, Air and High Beam markings on it? If you guys painted those on, would...

    If your machine shop comes through for you, could you still post up part blueprints for us?

    M135 transmision maybe destroyed from towing-First post

    rustystud, can you get measurements/make drawings of the bushings, washers, seals, etc.? Maybe we could see what it would cost to have some made. Depending on material and complexity of some of it, I may be able to make some on CNC equipment as time allows.

    I am sorry for your loss Dave. It sounds like your dad was a truly great man. Very neat that he left those 71 pages about his life. What a priceless thing to leave his family!! You are in our thought and prayers down here. If you need anything or just need to talk, let me know I have to...

    NSN Numbers?

    I suppose I should have clarified that I have never seen the contract number and FSN on an M135 data plate. Sorry for the confusion. These are 3 of the 4 data plates off of the trucks I own. Is it possible the Ord. Stock Number stamped on two of the plates is the number that is being searched for?

    Type of oil to use?

    I read that the Canadian Military switched to using 15w40 in these engines. I have also heard that Shell Rotella 15w40 has the zinc additives that old engines need. You'll have to decide what is best for you but this is what I plan to run in mine when I get her back on the road. Shell...
