Hi PJR, It came from Camp Ripley near Little Falls. I drove it from Little falls to Phoenix, AZ just shy of 2000 miles.

Hey guys, thanks for all the great comments. We moved into our house 11 years ago. We bought it new and were the first ones to move into the neighborhood. If I want to put a 34,000 pound Green truck in my driveway for few days, well, that's exactly what I'm gunna do. I take care of my nieghbors...

I've had it since August, but I finally made time to get it cleaned up from the trip home from Little Falls MN. BTW, I was supposed to drive it across the bridge that collpsed in Minneapolis the day after it collapsed. I was very lucky to avoid the tragedy. XM816 is in great condition, I'll...

There is a discrepancy between the gauges. I would think 450 hours would be a low hours engine. But just wanted to get some opinions on when the NTC 250 becomes a high hours engine. Does anyone know the general lifespan of this engine? I agree M1075, condition is key.

To the 800 series guys, What would you consider a high mileage M813 & what would a high hours NTC 250 Cummins be. I'm assuming maintenance was regular. Is 50,000 miles high for an 800 series? Is 450 hours high for an NH250? Thanks for your help.

hndrsonj, It pulled just fine, my F350 is set up to tow a 17,000 lb 5th wheel. It's a very treacherous road coming down out of Payson, my biggest concern was stopping. Down the long down hills, the Banks exhaust brake worked perfect, very little brake time. I kept it to about 45 mph most of the...

I'd say that tractor's worth about $1200. Rusty top $350 maybe a little more. A few pictures of mine below. I'd never be able to get what I've got into mine. It's for the love of a little green tractor. I'd never sell it anyway. 3rd to last picture is just after getting back from a 900 mile...

Call Latonne at Rodeo Freight 877-676-2336. She's a broker and owns the Co, she allways seems to get the best rate. Her cell number is 520-270-0422.

The guy who runs the GL facility at Barstow is Dave Skophammer, he's a good guy and was charged with a tough job, turning Barstow around. He's done a great job and is not done yet. There's much in the works for Barstow. Let's just say it will be getting very busy there next year. Kurtb - I've...

Any M52A2's with an M128A2C? Would love to see that! I'm really enjoying the pictures. I am planning to do my M52A2 as a sister truck to yours. I just obtained an NOS set of yellow headlights for the truck last month. I rebuilt the old style Ross last month. I'm searching for the old style...

Ace, you're making the OH331 sound very tempting.

Lee is correct. And to add to his explanation, the pump timing is adjusted different between the 1C and the 1D. If you look at the harmonic balancer of a LD/LDT-465 you will see 4 timimg marks. 1A, 1C, 1D & LDS465-1A. This is from memory so..., marks may be slightly different. I'll look at my...

I don't think he'll be back. I think he's a kid that hopefully just learned a lesson. Moving on... That Oshkosh Equipment truck is quite a sight. WOW beautiful. I wanna drive it home to AZ.... Just kidding :wink:

Welcome Tom. Very nice looking truck w/winch. Very complete, front parking/signal lights are metal - Nice. (looks like you'll have to replace a couple side boards on the drivers side) . I believe they pulled it out for the photos. They did with each of the A3's as well. Nice lookin Ex. What's...

Ernie, very cool. I like that device. Company has an interesting history. Thanks for the link.

Unlike our dueces, the 800 series master switch kills the engine in the off position. at least it does on my XM816. I've learned to appriciate the buzzer. I know if I were to "switch it", I'd leave it in the off possition some day and regret it. I've had that buzzer come on once and I'm glad it...

No doubt Wayne. I did plenty of stupid stuff that probably endangered my life as well as others when I was young. Mostly in high horsepower 4x4's and dirt bikes (my own stuff). I've paid the price for my stupidity. I started with the Bell System in "78", evan though I was crazy back then, I...

It shouldn't be too hard for Uncle Sam to find these guys. They should be found and delt with as those above (Mark & David) have suggested. These guys need to be made an example of. Their punishment should be posted on youtube. They also need to be banned from the internet for life for being...

Byron at SECO has always gone the extra mile to take care of me. Having said that, everyone has someone they don't work well with. I know I do. No big deal.

Memphis Equipment or SECO should have it. John at TNJ Murray may have it as well. It helps to have the NSN at Memphis or SECO. Try Byron at SECO 1st, then Memphis.
