    Road Test & Pics of M52A2

    The OD trans came in the 800 series trucks with the 250 NDC engine. The bellhousing looks the same , And i think it would work. I was thinking of putting one in mine so i could run 60MPH when bobtailing. I don't think the multi has enough power to run in OD while loaded. The direct drive tranny...

    Alternative Fuel and 6.2's

    I installed a squeeze primer bulb on mine. I got it from wal-mart for $5. That way i can open the bleeder and squeeze the bulb by hand to pump fuel. It's a lot easier on the starter and batteries.

    Road Test & Pics of M52A2

    I think it's worth it. Having the 5th wheel and parts is a real plus too. The direct tranny is the correct one for the multi M52. The axle ratio is 6.44 instead of 6.72 like the M35's. So you'll be able to do 55MPH with the 11.00-20 tires.

    Would you put a 5th wheel back on it? It looks good other than the bed.

    Eve of Destruction

    I drove all they way there a few years ago on vacation. Just to see it. They had it in the back restoring it. Where you couldn't see anything under some tarps. I had to sneek around a baracade and lift a tarp to see it. It was still worth it!

    200 amps

    Mabye you could use it in your M109. To run comm equipment. I think a regular 60 has plenty of power to run a truck and trailor lights.

    Would they have changed the paint to CARC in the 70's? Do you have a M# on the trailor? Does the trailor use the same wheels?

    My 1953 Diamond T M52 tractor "parts truck"

    Jon, Are you sure you wouldn't like to fix that one up? Mabye someone could get you a cab/fenders from howards before they are all gone. It's so different it looks like it would be a fun project. IMHO. How fast would it go? I know 6-71's will turn a lot of RPM's that thing should fly!

    Soda blasting

    I use glass beads with great results. The main reason i use glass beads is that's what we use at work and i get to use the blaster and primer for free. The beads will remove rust and not make a lot of heat. You really have to stay in one spot to get the metal to deform.

    I wanna go fast up hills!!!

    I don't think i'd turn up the fuel much with out a turbo. Espacilly if you don't have a pryo. Do you have a airshift T-case? If so, lockout hubs helped my seat of the pants acceleration. They are not cheap though. Is it cold enough up there to take your fan off?
