The transfer case PTO has a habit of easing out of gear? It is hard to get into gear then it will slip out of engagement, sometimes. The truck is right out of rebuild. The auto throttle control does not engage either. Anyone familiar with this issue?

Headed to Texarkana tomorrow to pickup a M105A3 from Government Planet for the first time. No going on the base so no paperwork hassle at least. Picking up at Tatum Excavation, see how this sub-contractor pickup works! They are only open Mon.- Wed. 9AM to 2:30? Since I am towing mine out...

It is a little late since I just "won" a M105A3 at Hooks, but I wanted to see how one sits behind a M1008, I have a 3.5 in. lift and 37's.

Had a chance to change out tires on a M270 Aircraft Recovery Trailer I rescued from a local house moving company down in the Mississippi delta this week. The six hour trip there was long but uneventful, I had two of my brothers accompany me! Even with a one inch air wrench it took a while to...

I am the only one having trouble uploading photos today? Gave up after 15 min.!

The truck below is pretty much how I got it from the AR National Guard, except for the lift and tires/wheels. Since I have had it the bed cover has come in handy as a catch all. A couple of weeks ago I cleaned it out to use it as a camper at the KAMO rally. I have not seen many other beds...

I don't have the fever yet but a HEMTT may be unavoidable! I use my tractors more than anything else so a HEMTT tractor would be what I would like. I see the M48 power units and then the M983s, is the 983 just a fixed tractor?

Photos from Saturday morning:

I was at Oklahoma City GL today to pick up an over sized brief case and some non-metallic hoses, I was on time and everything went well until the GL guy brings the brief case out in a 4X4X2 foot crate, which he lets me know is not going to fit into my Honda! i told him I didn't want the crate...

I have a 936A2 that is just out of rebuild, 16 hours. The transmission is about a quart low, when checking it, I can't tell what it is? It is almost clear with a slight golden tint? Any idea on what I should top it off with? I have done a search but I don't think it is gear oil and it has...

I "won" one of the diesel wheelbarrow type air compressors, it's in pretty good shape except for the rotten fuel lines. Now the fuel pump seems to be toast. Anyone familiar with these little diesels? How much fuel should you see from the pump? Should the fuel line to the injector be full of...

I am replacing the standard military engine on a wheel barrow type compressor with a easy to start Honda motor, I need the pulley off the sme for the Honda. The pulley has a key way and it has a disk between the pulley and motor with two screws holding it to the back of the pulley? I have...

My new to me M936A2 was delivered a month or so ago, I drove it about three miles to a storage site, it has been sitting since. I have aired up the tires manually since the CTIS is having problems. It sat for three weeks very uneventfully until this week. I go by a couple of time a week just...

Is there a reason the level winder was omitted on the front winch of the M936A2? I have tried a search with no good reason mentioned.

I am trying to move my 936A2 to storage, my CTIS is not working so I have aired up all the tires with my garage compressor. All but one rear tire, it will not take air? If I apply air the valve stem will fill with air but nothing will go into the tire. If i depress the valve a small of puff...

I need a 936 moved from Ft. Riley to Springdale AR it will take an RGN trailer and I need it moved in the next ten days, it starts, rolls and stops. I have a commercial mover on tap but would rather someone associated with the site. PM me if interested.

Any value to all of these radio mounts in the cab of my "new"(won today) 936?

I was in a neighboring state's forestry equipment yard when I noticed their collection of Gamma Goats was not only much better organized but it had grown. The manager told me that after 20 years or so he was finally going to be allowed to auction them off and get them out of his way(he has...

I have one of the Military wheel barrow type air compressors. The Standard Military Engine on it has to go! I picked up a 5.5HP Honda on Craig s List for $50, now I just need to rig up a mount for the motor. Has any one done this? Right now the compressor is such a drag on the motor it can't...

My 86' M1008 has had a mild death wobble for a while, changed four set of tires still wobbles. So I replace the steering dampener and the king pin springs and bushings, very easy replacement! However this has only reduced the wobble by maybe 95%. You can still feel the slight bump of the...
