Bringing this back to the top, I've got to submit my application Friday morning so I need to know by Thursday evening. Either respond on here or send a text to 229-364-2842. Thanks, Joseph

Simp, I'm also curious but don't want to hi-jack the thread with a previous discussion I have read a bit on. CSM Davis tells people not to put Dexron trans oil in these transmissions, Allison recommends the Dexron ATF. I changed mine before the GA Rally and since it was clear coming out, I...

The M109A3 should be a very reliable truck and it is based off of the M35A2 series trucks. If you find one that you like, do an in oil pan inspection and see if it has 12 point connecting rod bolts instead of the regular 6. They upgraded at some point to a harder bolt to try to avoid making a...

I think you have done your research and came up to the most economical solution. Make sure you get an A2 since the A1 and A0 have the N/A 250 Cummins and would not like altitudes like what you are trying to operate in. The "max" elevation on the CAT in the LMTV series only refers to the fact...

Maybe a Mod that I know "cough" Patracy can take them from my facebook profile and upload them here. I can't find a convenient way to do it other than download one at a time and upload and post 10 at a time. I downloaded the album onto my Chromebook and tried to upload the entire album on here...

I'll see all of you in the morning, looking like a 0530 SP from Leesburg to meet the timeline! Will coffee be available or should we plan prior? Not so much for me but my better half.

I've read issues concerning this and I'm confused as well. If I read correctly, the shutoff solenoid is set up for two wires to connect to it. One to pull in the solenoid when starting and one to hold while in the run position. My truck has 1 wire going to it and works just fine with the NHC...

If it were me, I would contact someone scrapping out M939 series trucks as mine has a magnetic drain plug from the factory. To get your old one loose, use a hammer and chisel on the edge to get a bite and go the correct direction. Righty tighty, lefty loosey has been a good standby for most...

I'm glad "WITH" is highlighted rather than "YOUR". I don't personally own a wrecker but me and my brand new M984A4 towed an M1078 attached to an M149. This thing tows so much better than an M1089A1P2!!!

If the nomination poll keeps going this way, "Automatic Win" for a truck who has been beaten before by some very worthy competition. My 5 ton is actually a worker bee, nowhere near as nice of a truck compared to you guys who really go above and beyond to restore them to their former glory...

First man through the wire usually gets bloody!!! I'll nominate "General Non-Sense", the M923 on the far left. We had just finished up a local parade with his smaller siblings! He just completed a trip to the GA Rally which is about 185 miles each way. He got a new injection pump a week...

Ken, your glasses are working fine, sir! December 3rd on a Saturday. Thank You Sir for pointing out my error and allowing me to correct it. The Parade might be a long haul for ya'll to participate but we will welcome with open arms if you decide to come down.

All, You are cordially invited to participate in the Annual Christmas Parade in my hometown. We have done this for the past 5 years and we normally wind up with 4 or 5 trucks under the flag of CAMO, Leesburg Detachment. Last year we had support from the HQ's and Proud American made the...

Awesome idea sir! I think there would be alot less work involved with swapping sheetmetal from an M809 series truck. There will still be some fabrication work involved but likely alot less if you start with a solid chassis and drivetrain. You wouldn't even have to find a running M809 series...

For anyone who enjoys alcohol please BYOB BUT!! I will NOT allow anyone to leave the Compound if I think you are not safe/legal to drive...and you all know I will have LEO presence before, during, and after the Parade and I WILL have them hog tie you and not let you go until you are...

I'm available to drive whatever or I can bring General Non-Sense, your choice. I would prefer to drive the M151, I didn't get around to it at the rally.

After talking with Simp5782, it's almost going there. I did the stock air filter modification on my my truck and it turned into a beast! Well, I had my pump gone through for a leaking seal that was dumping diesel into the crankcase and they upped it 10% on the bench from factory specs. I had...

I blew quite a bit of black smoke at higher speeds on the way home when floored for a short distance. I finished the air canister mod this evening so I am using almost all of the air filter media now and I washed it out 2 nights ago. My observations. It shifts around 2,000 rpm now whereas...

I have not read a thread on here concerning such a conversion. I'm quite certain a good fabricator could pull it off with no trouble. If you decide to go that route, I'd get an entire donor truck so I could swap the backing plates on the axles out and rob the components to add air brakes to...

Mine is an A1 and it only comes on during a long uphill climb. Just drove 185 miles and it only came on a handful of times. Gauge never went over 180. Outside temperature in the mid 70's and running around 55 mph the whole trip.
