    Sorry no info on these ATV's (I.D.'d: Polaris MRZR)

    https://military.polaris.com/en-us/mrzr/ The reason I know is I won the jerry can holder off them from a GL sale many years ago and did the research.

    1952 studebaker please help

    TM 9-2320-209-35 has all your technical answers. tl:dr - Old school "gasser" deuce and a half with the "Gold Comet" engine. They're uncommon but generally not as desirable due to age, fuel consumption, and hard to get parts for the engine but share a lot of parts with the more common M35A2...

    M10A International Harvester Rough Terrain Forklift

    I've got all the TM's on hand though some seem a little thin.. but I'm used to seeing 1700 page PDFs for the FMTVs haha., My machine has a locking bar and it was ready for transportation. This was a very clean job by the unit before turn in. I just wish they kept better track of the bolts and...

    M10A International Harvester Rough Terrain Forklift

    Got all fluids in her today and she runs smooth. All gauges nominal except fuel which is pegged out full (we can dream). I've got 2 minor leaks from dry seals on hoses: one on the main lift cylinder and one on the right lift cylinder base. Air pressure was a bit high at 135 psi and at the end of...

    M10A International Harvester Rough Terrain Forklift

    LO says.. 31 gallons of hydro. Fuel wise I haven't come across anything directly saying the capacity but it's big. It's weird the internet doesn't have this LO published as a .pdf yet. Just that janky page by page site that's there for the web clicks that I wont name.

    M10A International Harvester Rough Terrain Forklift

    All major parts yes. Some parts of the u-joint from the rear drive line they pulled must have fallen off between Arizona and Texas so those are on order. I did manage to get her to crank and start but without hydraulic fluid I shut it off quick to avoid running the pump dry.

    M10A International Harvester Rough Terrain Forklift

    She arrived today and rolled off the trailer with ease. Completely drained of all fluids..but looking at it glass half full that means half the work is done servicing it. Minor parts are on order and I'm going to pick up a barrel of coolant and 10w Monday. The engine has the RRAD sticker on it...

    pros and cons to owning an LMTV vs a M35a3

    I believe I know the truck you're talking about and as a M1081 LVAD they are much more prone to rust. I'd do some serious poking around on it to gauge the rust before proceeding. Both seem to be priced right sight unseen.

    pros and cons to owning an LMTV vs a M35a3

    This is the off the top of my head comparison between the two trucks and I tried to be objectively factual rather than speak to my taste. Having an M109A4 (M35A3 with M109 box) and an M1078 side by side it was easy to make comparisons. M35A3 Pros Cons Non Air brakes (may help in some...

    M10A International Harvester Rough Terrain Forklift

    There will be a massive rearranging here once it arrives and is checked over. Oh lord.. at 25 mph I better leave now to get there on time. That's what I like about it (the engine). I'll look into more counter weights as my rear rack is full. From my research when waiting is that there's a...

    M10A International Harvester Rough Terrain Forklift

    My "new to me" M10A will be here in a few days and want to see who else owns a unit out there? Anyone have any info on these units that's useful/interesting?

    Wheel Covers / Rim Protectors

    I've got a set of 6 NOS covers and have been talking to a local manufacturer to replicate them. They won't take on any new jobs until the corona stuff is over though.

    LMTV winch harness mystery connector

    I found the plug on ramdough's truck...and indeed looks like you broke the green plug. It has a metal male end that threads into the PTO housing which yours is missing.

    LMTV winch harness mystery connector

    That adapter I know of, it plugs into the PTO itself. The green one I don't recognize at all.

    LMTV winch harness mystery connector

    Would you post more photos of the connector ends? I don't recognize that plug on the PTO harness from the A0 on Ramdough's truck. The green end in your hand almost looks like it broke off something.

    Aloha from a newby

    Your videos show its like the dash has limited power since most gauges are not responding. One of my A1 trucks has a sticky relay when shutting down and the PBC will give similar/weird symbols when it's getting low voltage when it should be off. Follow what NDT said and work from the core...

    Joined the 5 Ton Club (Times 2)

    Welcome to the club! That M936A2 is a clean truck and looked unused since RRAD when I saw it last. The M810 came from Ft. Sam I believe. You'll like the wrecker but we warned..now people know you have one and you'll be that friend "with a pickup" that everyone asks favors from. :p

    Great winch video (and question)

    From the operation on my M1089A1 when I engage the PTO the RPMs are automatically set and I'm locked out of the gears as described. I have been too quick for the computer in the past and while in gear engaged the PTO. The RPMs increased some but since the truck was in gear and the parking brake...

    M45

    What catches my eye is that M42 and Cadillac Gage V100. Those wouldn't happen to be available too..would they? :whistle:

    What are the current supplies of LMTV namely M1078 and M1079 ?

    So.. insight knowledge for those reading. They charge off cubic inches then weight. Direct word from Pasha is their freight flow is heavy to the island and lean back to the mainland so they aren't concerned as much about weight on that sailing. They will still charge accordingly on dimensions so...
