The more I looked at the damage the more I am reminded of how lifting equipment in the wrong hands can be considered as destruction equipment. They were able to the forks into places I never even thought was possible. And i moved many things with a forklift without damaging the items I was...

Hey, I found the TM that tells me everything about the trailer. 074424.pdf (ltw.net) I was out working on it and made great headway. I think I will NOT be needing a master cylinder and I found the damper in the pintle drawbar like new as expected. I would like to know if I could buy a plastic...

I need some help with the brake system. The plastic cap is broken, and the rain did get into the master cylinder. The DOT 5 fluid was still in the plugger area. I heated the reservoir and used my shop vacuum to suck the fluid out. The fluid at the output line was clean. I removed the master...

I was surprised to see what the generator trailer cost the government. Like I mentioned in my first post. I don't think the safety hooks were ever used. This trailer has zero or low miles on it. I stripped all the brackets and mounts off the frame. I don't need any of that as extra weight. this...

Today was the day I went to pick up the trailer. It was balmy 11* when I left home and it jumped to 12* by10 AM. I picked out a 2009 model. Honestly from looking at the safety chain hooks I don't think it was ever attached to a vehicle. I was happy that it had all LED lamps on it. I will...

I don't care how fast it starts the starter will not grind. When hot I just tap the switch momentarily and they start when everything is according to Hoyle as designed and fully operational as designed. Adding hacked up relays and different glow plugs does NOT equate to starter grindage. I know...

The temperature sending unit for the engine is on the driver side front head. Are you sure you don't have a glow plug wire attached to it? They are both green and I have seen it before. Double check.

I probably have a rear pickup harness in my stash of parts. How far away from Fort Indiantown Gap are you? I am in Jonestown exit 90 of I 81. Good Luck. Give me shout back.

My experience has been when you hook a trailer to anything the mileage suffers severely. And a CUCV truck variant I experienced low fuel mileage with highway speed greater then 55MPH. I never drove a truck for fuel mileage. I used every one of my CUCV's hard and serviced them harder. The M1028...

This post reminds me of Lostforever when I was building my Decade wrecked M1009. Just saying. I suspect catfishing. Be cautious and safe. I am suspect of this post. Take Care.

You are not going to gain anything. These 6.2 are gutless when towing. Even when these trucks were new, we had townships at the GM dealership I worked at return the trucks and complain that they could not use the K30 cab chassis with a dump body loaded and pull a trailer to and from job sites...

I have no idea of what the RPM is. I never thought about it. It was revving and I heard katydids at top speed. But after several thousand miles I never took notice anymore. And I heard others drive them that fast also. My Sons both had them for years and beat them like stolen horses and they...

I drove an M1028A1 for 174K miles on it in stock form and sold it to a member on this site. I was coast to coast 2 times and up and down the east coast for 18 years. Towed and used it. It had 2500 miles on it when I bought it from SECO in 1995. &0 -75 MPH was the sweet speed range, and I never...

The after grind is not related to the relay. I can promise you that. As far as the cooler lines you may need to get a crows foot line wrench and remove the cooler lines. You need a better look at the flywheel 360* and really inspect it. My experience has been the engine will stop at 3 places...

If you ever go to sand and repaint that truck you will need 10 rolls of 80 grit sand paper. That truck has excellent corrosion protection with the 2 coats of CARC that are on it. But if you were to want a repaint of the entire truck you would be sanding forever. The days are gone when you find a...

OK. You ask for my opinion. I was a GM Service technician back in the late 70's and early 80's. I was not the transmission guy. The dealership I worked in we had guys that did transmissions and we had guys like me that did general service work, warranty and factory recalls. I did Pennsylvania...

Headlamps I am thinking the headlamp dimmer switch mounted under the dash on the column. Easy to diagnose. The switch is on the left side it has 3 wires going to it and a white plastic plug with squeeze locks. Unplug it and jump from the single wire to one of the other to wires. Use a test light...

?????

Anybody know if there is an applicable TM or parts manual for this trailer chassis? Picture for reference only. No leaf springs is my point of posting the picture. Thank you.

Look at that. CUCV cruise control with little or no cost.
