Larry, what NDT said[thumbzup] ... Yes it's strictly a Quad mount generator and I'm sure NDT will second me on this, almost impossible to find anymore. Was lucky enough to get one donated to me from Kevin K in 2007 when I brought the Queen back from Africa. Kevin was from WI, and the 1st...
In desperate need of the M10Ammo Trailer Wire diagram. Since moving a few months ago I am unable to locate my M10 Manual. Sure its packed away in one of the many boxes in storage, but so far I'm unable to locate it.

UPDATE: After School in PA and relocation to Prescott AZ, where I managed to move all my goodies to a shop in a hanger I
managed to restore and sell 2 M151A2's, sold my M37 and trailer, sold 5 M10
WWII Ammo Trailers with 4 of them restored and a battle damaged one sold to a
gent to pull behind...
Thank you, that make sense considering the length and the necessity to avoid a significant voltage drop.
Radio wire has to travel that same conduit so size will matter 😏.
Looking for any members that have the Maxsom M45 Mount or a track that has the conduit stiil installed for that system. Tring to find the gauge/type of the wire that ran from the track battery to the slip ring (Packard) mount in the turret base. My cable is missing although he conduit and slip...
I may have mentioned that after installing my transfer case my track gear shift seemed to be stuck!! So after pulling my shift tower I found that the linkage for my 3rd and 4th gears was locked up tight. Tore down the shifter and it seems that I might have an issue with the ball bearings that...
Just finished a very pleasant phone call with a gent at REMAN Inc, Atlanta GA. He is the resident expert regards all things Hydrovac and is sending a rebuild kit for my Hydrovac. He walked me thru the parts I need and clearly described each section of the hydrovac to include some tips on my...
After doing a bit of reading and now having a clear understanding of the Hydrovac function I tore into mine this weekend. The outside was truly no indicator of my Hydrovac interior, which was increadible clean and beautifully preserved. Guess I shouldn't be surprised as everything else I'd...
Lots of reading and peeling of the proverbial onion to get to bottom of my hydrovac question.
The model number for this hydrovac is 374750 (3rd series) and was used by the Army in the 50's as a brake upgrade. My HT was a BM M16 to M16A2 Conversion for Korea in 1952, number 315 of 413 A2...
Here is a pic with the track markings TRAUCO not TYCO ..GETTING OLD SUCKS :whistle:
When you turn the symbol right side up, it looks like a track riding on two bogie wheels. Words translate to Trauco Metal Rubber.
Research would indicate a Bendix Single Piston Hydrovac ... found a posting for tearing a similar one down and rebuilding ... trying to source parts next ...PIA!
Pulled my master cylinder and hydrovac as I'm finally getting to the brakes on my track. Both items are French made Bendix items, no surprise there as this was a recovered French halftrack. Am wondering if anyone has had one of these hydrovac units on their track and if the can provide a model...
Will one last question on that track ... does the rubber track have any markings on the edge that look like small circles with the letters TRAUCO in each circle?
Will, it's tough to pull it up thru the top because of that top brace that supports the TC. I dropped mine out thru the bottom. That top brace is PIA to get at the bolts on the side where it attaches to the frame.
On a peculiar note, my shift lever is now stuck in third gear and does not want...
After the input I received and going thru the manuals, I decided to pull my T case (TC) this weekend and free up my hi/low and front wheel drive slides without pulling the transmission, PTO etc. After dropping the heavy duty frame cross member and pulling all those 76 year old cotter pins out...
