No worries, hurries. this thing isn't going anywhere!

The arm that the rotopac cylinder is attached to that pushes on the arm that is fixed to the cross shaft when the clutch release lever is actuated back at the rear winch station. . This would be looking at the engine/trans from the passenger side, engine to the front. The levers look like...

I still have not found a frame stamped VIN. Looked drivers side between steering box and cab, nothing I can see. The front part of the frame does not have the undercoating stuff like the rest of the frame/undercarriage. IF someone were to want to find a VIN stamp, where would it be? It isn't...

My original thought was that the spades would go there, but I saw no place the make sure things stayed in place at the back of the truck. It would make things easier to remove and put in place from these spots rather than over the bed rails.

Popping in the intake is usually caused by a bent, burnt, out of adjustment intake valve, could have a loose rocker, bent push tube. See if you can verify the cylinder by use of an IR heat gun on the manifold at each cylinder. In the vid, it looks like it has a miss. Looks to be shaking at start...

How were they secured? Any pictures?

They don't look too bad. They are an add on.

That's what they most likely were for, but we have no idea what. They did make some staves that slip into the bow pockets to stow the long support bars. There are no anchor points on either side of the ring , from the cab to the rear of the frame, so that if something was stowed there, it...

I think it is a 1 inch bar. I used a lug wrench bar on the outrigger to level the truck. It is actually easy, but time consuming.

Today, I got the hydraulic tank cleaned out, the filter adapter installed and the filter installed. It was decided to use some pressure washer water to clean the goo from the tank and it was done last week. I let my feelings be known. Still happened. Yesterday when I went in and started the tank...

Well, I was WAY off! 3276 is the # on the tags. I looked on the frame and could find nothing. SO, when we do the stenciling, we will most likely use this number on the hood. Craig also said that the number on the doors was also on the right rear, on the back panel of the wrecker body. I don't...

That is the crane I had mounted in the bed of my deuce. I needed to have a chain fall mounted to the hook because with the boom all the way down, the tire was still only 1/2 way to the bed. The chain fall brought the spare to the ht of the bed thenI was able to swing the tire into the truck.

As far as I remember sitting here, the number on the DP and rebuild tag is 8723, 8732, 8372, something like that. I will check and snap a pic tomorrow and look on the frame a bit closer.

Well, the numbers on the insides of both doors start with 00, so, maybe those numbers are original reg nos? The number on both the data plate and rebuild tag are 4 digit, 8000's number, 8372, 8723, I don't know off the top of my head. This is a '53 IHC. I'll snap a pic tomorrow and look under...

This is about the project that is on going here, https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/the-next-project-an-asmh.216290/. The truck is a 1953, M62. This truck was, on it's last assignment, assigned to the CANG. That is where it was acquired from. Inside the cab, on the doors are CANG markings...

I forgot some other little tidbits! In one of the posts above, I showed a picture of some parts for the clutch release used by the rear winch operators area. Well, After 2 1/2 hours of my life trying to get the keyed arm back on the cross shaft, it looked as though that the arm was too...

OK, so it's been a bit since an update. Everything is going well, EXCEPT for finding a rear winch clevis. We are holding out to see if we can find a used one or a NOS from one of the vendors and I am hunting around in all of the parts scattered around to see if there might be one on hand. The...

You burn a mess of fuel. Have there been issues with older fuel sitting? What is the "shelf life" of the "renewable" crap?

Unlike the B, the flywheel housing doesn't need to come off. The seal is a teflon seal with a dust excluder, the installer should come with the seal, it is a white plastic sleeve that allows the seal to be bushed over the end of the crank. Early on the seals liked to wear the crank pretty bad...

CHP was funny! Wonder what the guy he pulled over thought??!! :ROFLMAO: :devilish::tank:
