Welcome from ND, the truck looks great the 939 series 5 tons are great trucks both to drive and ride in they are quiet and just plain drive very nice! You are going to want to get the TMs on this truck to guide you through servicing and repairing what needs attention, and your really going to...

I just placed an order with New life a few weeks ago and all seemed the same as always! And they are still in most cases the best prices and good quality work! KK

Glad to have you aboard from ND KK

My wife is from China and she was going over there to visit family and we send 5K to a western Union so she could pick up the money when she arrived. Later that day I got a call from the Fed and they were asking a couple questions primarily WHY are you sending the money to China, I told them it...

I went to a trophy shop and he had the exact template to do all my plates, it was not close, it was exact and I had him do 3 different plates and I think he charged me 25.00 for all of them! KK

Another possible option here hukfin is to get a set of TMs for your truck and give them a read! You would be amazed at the level of knowledge that can be found within! KK

I have an M920 and I think that truck is BIG until I see a 1070, Holy crap these are an impressive looking machine! Congrats on your new ownership! KK

THAT is certainly a 123 alright, sometimes I forget just HOW BUG that truck really is! I owned one for a bit with the same V8 as this one and I bought it really just to save it from the scrapper but let me tell you a person really wants to have one of these trucks to own one! Parts are hard to...

Hey guys I have a question to ask your thoughts on. I am getting ready to final time the engine in my 52 M-37 and since I do not have the little adapter that fits between the plug and the plug wire, not that it would do me any good anyway with an induction timing light, but my idea is the just...

The hand throttle on our trucks pretty much all operate all the same way, after you start the engine (cold) pull out the throttle to maintain your RPM at say 800 RPM, keeping any eye on things because as the engine gets warmer it starts to run more efficiently and your RPMs will keep going UP...

Thanks Bert I got the entire cross member removed today and that was one of the rattiest looking pieces of metal ever to be in my shop, I had to sweep the floor under the truck 3 times as the rust would build up so fast I didnt want to keep walking on it. I got the new cross member from MWM a...

Acropilot that 1083 is one fine looking truck! I did the same thing your working on except I had my S-280 in my Deuce, my 280 was a comm center, and I sure understand about removing stuff! Mine still had the AC/Heater units on it above the cab of the truck they were of no use to me at all...

Hey guys I have searched my TMs and searched the site for good knowledge on removing the rear Cross member on my M-37. I have it about 80% ready to remove, but I read about "L" brackets that need to be removed prior to removing the cross member itself, and I have seemed to gather that they are...

I just saw a whole pile of Hummers sold on Govt. Planet and there was one unit that looked brand new and had around 200 miles on it, it went for a pretty good amount but the rest of the running normal looking stock all went for over 5K but not a heck of a lot! KK

A naturally aspirated engine is going to struggle a bit above 8000 ft, the heavier the load the more the struggle. A turbo charged engine has the ability to create its own atmosphere so to speak, it will be able to maintain its performance up to a much higher elevation than a non-turbocharged...

I have an 87 U1300L with the fast axle ratios the truck is well within all limits driving at 55 mph, the one issue you would have in driving one of these trucks for thousands of miles at road speeds is in the portal drives to each wheel, they are not terribly fond of continuous high speed...

If I were going to buy your truck and I were NOT in any way knowledgeable about the CTIS system I would think that this sounded like the BEST system that was ever invented and would be wanting to put it on my pickup! To such a naive person such as this you may have a problem selling your truck...

Hey guys and happy Independence Day!!! I did a search under this subject and got lots of hits and different ideas, I also looked at a few commercial chemical/acid options? I pulled the tank on my M37 this morning and ended up after pounding on the tank with a rubber mallet for awhile getting...

You could just chain the steering wheel like the Army does and then remove the batteries! KK

It is truly and I mean TRULY amazing what some folks look at OK!!!! I have seen my share of this level of "CRAFTSMANSHIP" also! KK
