I can't get the crane to rotate on the M936A2. All other boom functions are working. It seems like there is some sort of brake function keeping it from turning. It tries to start turning, but has a hard stop. It does this in both directions. I checked to make sure there was nothing in the...

What should be the top speed of an M52A1 (Mack with Spicer 6453 xmsn) with governor set at 2200 rpm, and stock 11.00x20 tires ? Is there anything that can be done to increse it, other than tire size?

Does anyone have any recommendations for a manufacuterer and color for the yellow and red glad hands on an M52A1? Rustoleum used to carry an Insignia Red and Federal Yellow, but I can't seem to find it.

I got a new steering wheel for my M52A1 and painted it semi OD. The paint isn't drying. I assume paint won't work with whatever material the steering wheel is made out of. Any ideas as to how to get the paint off and what kind of paint to put on it?

Does anyone have any info on how to replace the horn button wire in the steering column on an M52A1 with the "new style" steering gear. The new style steering column only extends about a foot past the fire wall where it then connects to a U Joint on a shaft that goes to the steering gear. The...

The speedometer cable adapter on my M521A1 (MACK) seems to be the cause of the speedometer not working. The -20P parts manual calls out two different adapters. A regular one and one with a drive ration of 26 to 1. Does anyone know which one I would need? (transmission is an overdrive...

The air compressor governor (MS53006-1) on my M52A1 has a real slow release of air when it gets up to pressure. Is his normal (should it be a fast release)? Can these governors be taken apart and cleaned without messing something up? Any info on how they work would also help.

I am wanting to put the old style (not west coast) mirrors on my M52A1. However, when looking at the right hand side (passenger), the holes that I would think the mirror arm bracket would attach to have the exhaust pipe attached to them. Does anyone know how these types of mirror arms would be...

My M52A1 has a shroud that goes on top of the radiator. It appears to be there to keep the air from recirculating from the back to the front of the radiator between the hood and the top of the radiator. Attached are a couple of photos. I can't seem to find it in the parts manual. Is this...

I have read the threads of the placement of fire extinguishers in the M37 & M35, but was wondering if there is some sort of DOT requirements for an M920 type of truck. If I get pulled over, I suspect that I will have enough to go through explaining the military vehicle registration and don't...

I have just gotten my recently acquired MEP-003A Genset running (Bad Freq Meter and Feq converter and broken speed control cable). I was in the process of changing the oil, when I noticed that there was "5KW" stamped on the dip stick. I have found a copy of the -003A parts manual and found the...

Does anyone know if the speed control cable and knob are the same for the MEP-002A and MEP-003A? I can't find them in either one of the parts manuals.

I recently found this tire at a truck repair shop. It has what looks to be a unused (still see Michelin man on end of tread knobs) Michelin tubed 14.00x20 tire. The rim has a small split ring on it. Does anyone know what it was originally used on?

I have diesel fuel getting in to my engine oil on my MEP-005A Gen set. I have read the other posts, most of which point to the FDC, which this gen set does not have. It has a White 6 cyl diesel engine. The most likely source is the injection pump seal. Does anyone have any hints on how to...

I live in Texas. It is hot here. I have seen pictures of M920's with armored glass and doors that have air conditioners on top. Anyone know what type of air conditioners they are using?

I got my M936A2. In general, it looks to be in pretty good shape. The only thing that I think I will have a problem with is that the groove on the top of the windshield that the canvass top slides in to is pretty much rusted away. Since finding another windshield frame appears to be pretty...

When I got my M920, it had the transmission and winch oils drained. I filled them both up. Everything thing seemed fine until I tried using the winch to pull out a dozer that was stuck in the mud. The winch started working intermittently. I noticed that the oil level had gone below the lower...

Does anyone know where I can get the 24V light interconnect cable that goes between a semi trailer (such as M270) and a 5 ton truck (such as an M52A1)?

Does anyone know where you can get wiper blades for an M916-920? Is there a conversion to civi blades that will work. My blades are 18 in,

Does anyone have the documentation for an M920 electronic tachometer and speedometer. It appears the truck originally had mechanical tach and speedo, but got converted to electronic. All the documentation I have been able to find is for the original mechanical (flex cable). Let me know if...
