Considering the truck will require a detach or similar trailer, your $4K quote is pretty good (possibly on the low side). Speciality trailers cost more. If the truck could fit on a step deck (it can't unless you remove the cab top, windshield, exhaust, etc.), you could get it moved for around...

FUZZYTOASTER posted about a few turbos that he is offering for sale...both C and D turbos.

Perfect. Thanks!

Is it just a plug and play part or does it require any adaptation? I have one to replace, too. Thanks!

I once had a USMC M998 that had multiple bullet holes through the floor board...from the inside out! Well, that is what I suspected based upon the size and look of the exit hole. No real way for me to be sure. I also had an M1045 that had holes going into the door right above the supplemental...

I bought some black plastic rear composites from Midwest Military. They were manufactured by one of the OEM manufacturers. I don't recall the manufacturer, although I believe it is Truck Lite. I went with black because the camo right around the light is black. You could always paint whatever...

My recommendation would be to have it towed. It is the safer plan. I have used a towbar to tow vehicles before, although not that far. If I had to tow something over like 20 miles, I'd get it towed or hauled. Personally, I'd rather spend the extra money for peace of mind. I wish you the...

I bought my wiper blades off of eBay from C&C Surplus. I am using them on the same truck and they work fine.

Impressive. Thanks for sharing, Howard!

Welcome! Please share pictures of your truck. We would love to see it!

I don’t disagree, but if it’s an issue in your state, you’ve got to argue it with your DMV.

I have no doubt you are correct in your post (entire post, but specifically the part about not needing additional lubrication), but I add conditioner for other reasons...mainly to remove water that accumulates throughout the year and to prevent fuel gelling in the cold. Whether it works or not...

I add a good diesel conditioner (usually either Power Service or Howes) with every fueling.

Awesome! It reminds me of the time I took an M35A2 onto Ft. Meade for 4th of July festivities. It was crowded as hell. I'm driving around looking for a place to park when some Private directed me into a small parking lot. After off-loading the family (and friends), the officer in charge...

That is a nice truck. I know Nate (SWATMod). He is a good guy.

I would NOT apply wax to any vehicle painted with CARC.

There might be someone on this list who knows, but why not contact an Allison dealer? I've been involved in threads about 10w vs 15w40 vs Dex vs the latest synthetic lubricant. The multiple times I have taken trucks with Allison trannies in...they have pushed (initially) Dex, and more recently...

I'd get it home to make sure the top is in good shape. It appears intact from the one picture, but it also looks a bit weathered (i.e., not fresh). The trip home won't be kind to anything but the freshest of tops. With all this said, the M1035 tops can't be too common if you needed one...but...

I have quite a few M39 and M809 series trucks with sprag t-cases, and I never had a problem. Never allow the truck to roll backwards while in a forward gear, or forward while in reverse. That causes that sprag to bind up and that is how they become damaged. A lot of people don't know how to...

I am unsure how it happens, other than poor record keeping, but old trucks come out much later than anyone would figure. I've seen gasser M543s (could have been an M62) come out in the last 20 years. I've seen M123 (diesel variants...not sure which model) tractors come out during the same time...
