He would do that as a preservative measure? Wonder what is in that stuff?...

Could it be hydrolocked with fuel in a cylinder?

What part number was that listed under? My heater kit came with the M35 cover which doesn't quite fit and I've been wanting to get the 809 version.

NASCAR does it and gets payed handsomely for it...

This time the adapter bushing between the stick and the grenade is made of aluminum instead of brass as it's 1/3 of the weight. I was finally able to get this new shifter and my original M813 shifter on a scale for comparison. The complete grenade shifter is 10 oz heavier. When mocking up...

Thanks for reporting back. So many posts ask for help troubleshooting and then never share the final findings.

The stick always takes the most work. The mockup looks good and clears all the levers 😁

I decided to make another grenade shifter for some lucky person. After getting a little stir crazy this winter and looking at my jigs and extra parts I figured it was time so I ordered up an NOS shifter and got to work. The shifter base off of this new shifter was different than my...

Yes, it will work and not peel. I painted mine with Rapco and Aervoe paint about 4 years ago and it has never flaked.

No idea about the M39s, but my M809 has s quarter turn vent valve on the reservoir tank hose near the upper radiator hose that must be open when filling so that the coolant can displace the air as it fills.

Great photos! You need to upload some of the snow pics to this thread: https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/show-your-5-tons-in-the-snow.101451/

Oshkosh equipment and Eastern surplus has the torque rods p/n 8728128. They probably have the springs and propeller shafts as well but they're not always identified as bridge truck parts. The component costs of all the parts might end up being more than what an unwanted M812 or M821 would sell...

The only thing I know is that many owners of bridge trucks get stuck with them when they find out they're too wide to legally drive down the road and then can't offload them to anyone else because the others already know (I guess). They end up losing a lot of money to get them gone. Searching...

Bridge trucks have at least 3 different things going on. They have spacers behind the wheels that increase the width, they have different wheels for the 14.00-20s, and they have torque rods that are 3" longer that end up spacing the rear axles 6" further apart. If you want more clearance...

By physical size or torque capacity?

This is another view of the same. It's such a sweet setup that I saved the pic for future reference.

The one I've seen used is from Those Military Guys but I hear that it's the same as Harbor Freight with a different paint job...

It's a powered base for a vehicle radio setup. Under the seat there would sometimes be a RT-524 installed on top of that piece.

Hope they were paying rent! Something was open to the elements at one point. I had sediment draining from that valve for quite a while. I would stuck twigs and things not too sharp up there to dislodge the rust flakes and eventually it wore down to just a thicker black coolant that would...

The concrete/ masonry bit shoots out a small direct stream that orbits in a circular motion to create a cone of high pressure water. I nicked the back of my ankle with one once right across the Achilles at 2500 psi..it will leave a mark...
