    Turbo rebuild costs?

    I have searched around in old posts and have not found the answer I need. I pulled the turbo to tap for a Pyro probe. With the turbo off I checked the play with my finder. There was some play. It spins free and the vanes have not contacted the housing. It is a D turbo. 1st question is what if...

    Need items to complete two Vic-1 installations.

    Well I got a bunch of stuff from Medlog. I have am-1780 amps and three control stations each. Looking it over I need three cx-4723 cables. One for each box and a fourth to connect the am-1780 to the MT1029 mount for my radio installation. Since I have two setups that would make it 8 cx-4723...

    Columbus OH Loadout or checkout.

    I just got an M818 from Columbus. If anyone is going I would like someone to see if it starts. If it does I may try to drive it home. If it does not then I will just use the deuce and the tow bar. Also, anyone near that can pickup and stage for me so I don't have to take a day off work to get...

    Depot rebuild truck data plates

    While cruising GL I found the attached pic. In another post there was a discussion of different rebuilds. Individual components as opposed to full or limited depot rebuild. The tag show in the photo is the like the ones I have seen on depot rebuild trucks. They are generic with a place to...

    Link not working for Tm 9-2320-260-20 in TM section damaged

    When I try to download the -20 M800 series five ton manual I get an error that the file is damaged. I tried a few times and could not get it to work. All the other 260 manuals worked just fine. This is the only one that gave me trouble. Is this something you guys can fixed or does someone need...

    Cold weather starting my deuce.

    I just got done changing the ether cylinder on my deuce and bleeding the system after I ran it out of fuel last week end. Turns out the cylinder was empty. I tried a few times to start it when the temp got below 20 degrees and it started just by cranking and giving some of the go pedal. I wonder...

    Going rate for the M818 on GL?

    I am giving up on the M52. Next I am looking at GL for an M818. What have the prices been running? I am looking to get a general idea. I don't mean ones like Armada's brand new m818 with that new car smell and 100 miles on it. I am talking about the normal "uh don't know if it starts" run of the...

    Anyone know why the top of a radiator would blow off?

    One of the trucks I am looking at was parked when the top tank of the radiator blew off the core. Anyone seen this before and can provide a reason. I am pretty sure the engine is an LDS multifuel. The millage is reported to be pretty low on the truck. My first thought was that the combustion...

    m52 tractor questions.

    I am considering trying to get an M52. Is there any way to tell from the outside if it is powered by the Mack or the LDS? I know the designation is supposed to tell but that info I do not have. Do they have the front air brake connections for towing like the 800 series and the 900 series? Is...

    Where do you tap for a multifuel heater fuel line?

    I have a multifuel heater for both the cab and for the cargo compartment. Where do I tap for a fuel line? I looked over the manuals and can't figure it out. I assume that taping the regular line is not right since the heaters have their own fuel pump. The manual looks like it taps a second hole...

    Help with uh-48 multifuel heater.

    I got one on ebay. Instead of being the normal round type this one is in a box but it looks the same inside the box as some of the round ones. It is just encased in a box. The heater auction had pics of the heater and the data plates which clearly had it as a multifuel. The one I got was not the...
