Could be the regulator in the other alt failed

S-250 shelter.

They moved to Alabama. Did you try their new website at vintagewiring. com?

Search for posts by Simp5782 on the subject. He is the only one on here that put big power through the Allison and I can tell you it didn't go well. Hmm, 300K in a 931, your spine will need to be rebuilt before the 8.3.

The rotochamber is only on wreckers. The clutch has no hydraulic aspect at all. If all the linkages outside the bellhousing are connected and moving, the issue is inside the bellhousing. Prepare for an unpleasant repair.

Clutch???? Pin musta fallen out of the linkage.

I think the “BRADEN” is not on the casting, as during WWII, other mfgrs joined in to make winches for the war effort.

Looks like a Braden M2, not a MU2 used on WC Dodges however.

Hard to say, $200-300 maybe.

Wow that is how you want to find them. Looks like you got it in time before the rust got worse. Hopefully you can get it blasted and some new paint soon.

Whatever it takes to isolate the leak. Hope that it's not a diaphragm.

MEP-016. could be ignition could be fuel. Clean everything up and see if it improves

Yes that engine is bulletproof. The oil pan might be mostly full of sludge, verify before trying to start. Engine long block should be the same as M37, accessories are different. Personally I would start negotiating at $500. That’s not a lot of money these days.

The bearing is typically sealed. You have to replace it to grease it. BUT if all you need this welder for is to lay down the occasional bead, it’s probably ok. Continuous duty is the issue. Unit is probably worth $500. Trailer is nice. It’s possible the trailer and welder have been...

Interesting. Rebuilt Granite City Engineering Depot 1955. Has the Chrysler 230 engine similar to M37 truck. If the engine is full of water the unit is uneconomical to repair. Issues with these ancient generators is the grease in the armature bearing is no longer any good, and getting to that...

The tires on it now are skinny 7.50-20s.

Yes the G506 anf G508 rims are different than later M series trucks. It’s important to hoard those rims if you plan to restore these trucks.

What is your serial number and body number?

Waste of money. Wet paint it with Sherwin Williams Kem Lustral F65 B50 wrought iron black. It will look factory.

Red River Parts and Equipment has these. It’s very expensive to rebuild these engines, which is why most everyone opts for good running take outs.
