    Memphis Equipment advertised those fiberglass cabs in the 1970s on m35s and m54s.

    IP/Injectors for 6.2 Turbo with 6.5 Heads

    That sounds about right. The turbo kit on my 1992 Ford used exhaust smoke density to see if you turned the pump up too much. Try for med. Gray, not black smoke at 1/4 throttle.

    Help ID'ing this 5 ton wrecker

    The 6602 may be worth something for parts . At least I hope it would be.

    Update! Solid state regulator was toast.

    I hate the solid state regulators. I was able to repair the mechanical one in my M37.

    Front end rebuild

    It is hard to find competent people to work on your equipment. I have a good shop in my small town. I'm just getting too old and crippled up to do the heavy jobs anymore. Good for you doing your own work. Just do it with care.

    Headlight question.....not LED's

    I highly recommend this lighting setup. You can carry a spare H4 bulb in a padded container. I would use Hella housings. Bulb pigtail adapters are on Am...n and other sites.

    Humvee Thermostat Housing Problem

    Be careful. Use a penetrating oil soak then heat then more penetrating oil. Don't get too much twisting with a breaker bar.

    Humvee Thermostat Housing Problem

    In the future, use heat and an impact gun for a steel bolt in aluminum.

    Front end rebuild

    I've always tried to use Moog. I've used TRW and Delco products with good results. Your truck is older and complete kits are probably not packaged. I go to the local independent parts house and ask them to fix me up. Best of luck to you, a worthwhile endeavor.

    M35A2 brakes soft on initial startup

    I second the above advice. Look at the -10 manual and perform a major brake adjustment. Check the brake flexible hoses carefully. If cracked or dry rotted , replace them.

    G749 preservation

    That really has the cool factor going for it! Glad I'm too old for projects like that. I get enough military vehicle work with the VFD, thank you just the same.

    Hunter camfire malfunction

    That is why I try to avoid lending my equipment out.

    R.I.P. - David "MWMULES" Christenberry

    That is a nice and well thought out obituary. May God be with his family at this time.

    Oh shucks, that overspray will buff right off.

    Great truck, good rust repair work.

    Truck bought for parts, got it running, but…

    I wouldn't be too worried about the blow by. After driving it for a time, the rings will get settled in. Blow by should mostly go away after a few hundred miles.

    1966 10 ton M123-A1C....Dirt71

    Been a long time since I've seen one of those. I'd forgotten how truly big they are. Very nice find!
