I need to have a injection pump rebuilt. There was a post of a place that was doing them
for a fair price, but I can not find the post that had it listed.
I am thinking it was in Louisiana but not sure.
I have had my M35A2 for about 5 years now and it has always ran great. The problem I have with it is that when you try to start it you have to turn it over a longer then my other trucks and when it starts it runs rough for about 5 seconds then it is fine.
After it is started and ran a little...
I have completed the AC install in my M936. I used a Hummwv kit but I did not use the Hummwv Condenser, I used a condenser built for the M939's.
The big problem was I could not figure out how to get the motor fan to work with the AC system when it needs it and also have it used by the truck when...
I have a question about the output of a MEP-005A.
If you hook it up to Signal phase and try to use it will it shutdown due to not having
the one leg with a load on it?
I see that people or doing the signal phase conversion, is that needed to run or is it to
get the full 30k watts out of the...
I am trying to install a Red Dot AC in my M936 and put the condenser in front of the radiator with out the elec. fans.
But I can not figure out how to get the truck to turn on the motor fan and the AC to be able to turn the motor fan on when it needs it.
Any input would be welcomed. Thanks!
I had installed a PTO on my deuce about three months ago and it would not go in all five detents on the shiftier, so I took it off and was looking at it and I noticed that it would not go in to all five detentes. So I did a closer look and noticed the shiftier gear was not going all the way over...
I picked up a set of NOS troop seats for the M929 dump truck and when the seats are up they work fine but if you try to fold the down the support legs or to short and if you try to use the holes in the side of bed they are to long for the seats to set level.
Has any one seen how the troop seats...
I have been worried about the wrecker at shows and displays about someone getting on the wrecker and letting the boom down on someone or something.
So I made a boom support that goes around the cylinder. That way if the lever gets moved or a hose brakes the boom will not come down.
I looked in the TM for the part # for the seal used on the shaft for shifting the transfer case and the TM does not show the seal or the shaft on the parts break down.
I got around to putting on a new set of mud flaps from Fleet Engineers that I got for my M932A2. The mounts used the same holes as the stock mount.
The stock mount were to close and keep eating up the bottom of the mud flaps.
They are 3/4" and have a 5" offset and run about $70 for the set.
If you have a Packer Hyd. Motor on your Wrecker you need to add a case drain to it.
I have had to have my motor rebuilt two times now. the second time I was asked if I was using the case drain on the motor and I did the deer in the head lights thing. LOL
When you blow a seal it will fill up...
Well, it has been almost two years now and I have been working off and on restoring one of my M35A2’s. I am almost done with it, just need to put the winch cable on it, a little more stenciling, etc.
Still need to work on the troop seats, but that will be a little bit later in 2014.
I have...
I put the wrecker to work building some shade for it and other trucks and used it to work on my Grader.I could of used a lift, btu it was more fun with the M936.
I picked up a M970 fuel trailer with a Onan 4 cly motor on it. I changed the fuel filters and flashed the lines out, than I tried to start it and I can not get it started. I think it is the same motor that is on the MEP003A.
It turns over but will not fire up. The injectors or not getting fuel...
Castle Bravo and I headed out to pickup my M932A2 from Barstow on Sunday afternoon. We got to Barstow about 2000 hrs.
On Monday we got to the Barstow gate about 0700 and to GL about 0710. Signed in and was told to go over to the dirt lot and wait for the GL guy.
Got to the truck and did some...
Did a little road trip and trail ride with our club on Saturday. We went from Rock Springs, AZ up the Crown King, AZ.
We had four jeeps, one CUCV, one HMMV, two pickups and my Deuce.
There was a fire in the mountains around Crown King about two years ago, you can see by the pics of the...
I replaced the Boots on my M923A1 about 2 months ago and all was fine. But I went into a
car show in Phoenix and I notice my right side boots was leaking grease out the bottom of the boot.
This morning I looked at it and the boot had come loose.
My question is how tight do you tighten the wire...
