I personally would use the same size line as specified in the TM for the truck you are putting it...

    Familiar Oil Spray Pattern?

    Okay I think you have two different problems the tire has a leaky seal somewhere try putting a valvecore in the valvestem and reinflating it. The oil is a slow leak from the wrecker body that will run out there because of the low tire tilting the body that way just a little.

    M-920 in dash starter solenoid

    That solenoid in these trucks tends to have problems with under voltage, known problem in service and not fixed.

    m939 essential spare parts

    Like was said 2 spare trucks, but the stock BII is what should be carried and then maybe a few other pieces. I recommend that you use some improved bits of BII like make a gladhand adapter and use 1/2" or larger air hose so you can run a bigger impact and get an air chuck that has the rings cut...

    Scorpion's first Parade

    Yeah you can find them civilian but the 5 ton would be a bit small for hauling armored vehicles. The PLS and LHS are complete trucks like the one you posted from Brittain.

    in search of info on M534/M62 hydraulic pump setup

    Secondary air pressure low, Keep burning up head gaskets

    Okay every air compressor on a 5 ton I have opened looks like the picture he posted of the burnt gasket and I have opened a bunch, all 809 and 939 series used this pump. I personally think that the top head should have been made of cast iron and cooled like the middle. the aluminum head is...
