I can think of several better ways to spend $600 on our M886. Thanks for the tip though.

Most 880 series ambulances seem to have the rear doors split, I think it's caused from trying to shut the doors with the steps out. Ours is the same way. I thought about drilling the rivets out, pulling the two shells apart, and re-enforcing the edge with some angle iron. If you have some ideas...

Thanks, but don't tell anybody. :beer:

I would say you're in the right place, but what do I know? Post photos if you have 'em, we're a visual bunch here.

TM's? Sounds as though you may need to download some Technical Manuals to become more familiar with your truck. Here is a link: JATONKA's M35 TM* download page They are also available in the Resources Section above. Good luck with your purchase.

Commander, PM me if you are interested in that Allison Internal Filter and Gasket Kit, I have several on hand. These are Mil Surplus.

And others. Ike, Gary, Keith and Tom to name a few.

Keith, Is there any way to keep the corrosion from accumulating again? Would drilling a small hole in the bottom of the case help? My freq meter stopped working because of corrosion.

Wire #55 goes to the manifold heater fuel pump from the manifold heater switch. Do you not have a manifold heater switch? If you do, I'd be willing to bet your manifold heater doesn't work, with wire #55 just dangling there. #55 would be OK to get power from for the heater, but I would fuse the...

Didn't seem to make too much difference here.

Before you get too far ahead of yourself, did you check the heater core for leaks? Just a thought. When I wired my heater in, I tried to make it look like the motorpool did the job. I bought my wire and wire connectors from Erik's Military and Industrial Surplus - Military Vehicle Parts...

Right above the steering column on the firewall, there is a circuit breaker. I installed a splitter there, and pulled the power for my heater from the splitter. I might have a photo at home of what I did. I think I even have a parts list and "blueprints".

That unit should work fine in your truck. You will need a resistor to make a low speed connection. You might have to piece together some parts to make the system work, but parts are available.

If you want to lube it, do not use WD-40! Get a can of Houdini from a locksmith supply. It's a spray lubricant designed especially for locks. This info is per the locksmith where I work, he's been locksmithing for about 30 years.

So if someone has used a phase convertor to power another unit with a motor and electronics, would it be in someone's best interest to make sure the electronics were not attached to the synthetic leg?

OUCH! A2's are alot cheaper to maintain.

Where's the ground at the switch located?
