    Auto Cancel Turn Signal

    Pics will come when I get the steering wheel to mount the ring. I needed a new wheel so figured now is the time to do it.

    Auto Cancel Turn Signal

    So I bought the switch from eBay and it mounts right up to the 5ton M816. I have also done some more research and found that the cancel ring mnts to the steering wheel not the column so the dia of the column has no bearing on the upgrade at all. I also found that there is an update to the...

    Auto Cancel Turn Signal

    Mounting the turn switch is no problem. I did not know there was a ring that went with the steering wheel. Any clue where to find one? I have a full machine shop here and can mod something to make it work but dont want to get too modern looking so using mil parts to start with would be great.

    Auto Cancel Turn Signal

    You can see in the picture that it has the little dingus where the pin on the bottom of the steering wheel would flip it to cancel the turn signal. I also asked the seller and confirmed it is auto cancel. I saw the same switch at the show and it will fit the 5 ton with no problem but the wheel...

    Auto Cancel Turn Signal

    So I am looking around on eBay and see an auto cancel turn signal switch that is for a military truck. It looks exactly like the M35 type switch but has the auto cancel function. My question is what steering wheel is set up or what truck had the auto cancel turn signal switch installed. I was...

    MV offroad use on Pine Barrens?

    If it is a legal vehicle to drive on the road then it can be driven in the pines, stay on the trails, use signals, dont spin the tires(around the 5-0 anyway) The rangers are not the issue any more it is the fish & Wildlife police in the durangos. They have full jurisdiction anywhere in the...

    . what am missing on the X case???

    I save all the support bars and brackets from Chevy C/K series trucks and I think I have 5 different ones in stock. Can you get a length and i am sure i have it. I also have the smaller bars that go from the motor mounts to the torque converter cast aluminum cover.

    M816 Cummins egine mods needed

    There is trailer air brakes but there is no way to control them without the trolley brake in the truck. The trailer brakes are only active if the brake peddle is pushed in the truck and by then it is not really saving the truck brakes at all. The turbo idea is great but for now I need it to...

    M816 Cummins egine mods needed

    I am a collector that actually uses the trucks for what they were built for and beyond so I need added slowing when loaded. The Juice brakes are not strong enough to stop a 36000lb truck with a loaded 10 ton trailer which is spec for the 816 but I will be doing this often and the added engine...

    M816 Cummins egine mods needed

    I found the C Brakes which are made by Cummins for about $300.00 for all 3 of them and in the grand sceme of things with this truck that is not that bad. The fan would be the more important thing on my list to get a clutch on. I run it yesterday with no belts and the sound and even RPM...

    M816 info and picture needed

    Cool, Thanks to all for the reply's I have seen a few pictures but none of them look right or make any sense of how they were mounted. The pics above look to be more user friendly and in a lower position for height restriction problems. I found one other where they had them on top and on pins...

    M816 Cummins egine mods needed

    So I have had the wrecker for about a week and now it is time to make some changes. It is very loud with the fan spinning all the time so I am looking into swapping out the fan hub with an air operated fan clutch and looking into adding an engine brake like the "C Brake" or Jacobs engine brake...

    M816 info and picture needed

    High nickel content

    Yes to both questions sort of... The Military block is an 010 and 020 block meaning it is a 10% higher in nickle and 10% higher in zink but it was for corrosion protection since the Gov knows the vehicles sit allot. Not the Gov did not make them do it, they already do it as a Marine Application...

    Replacement low coolant module

    What board is for the low coolant light? I replaced mine and it was just a sensor in the radiator and that was it. There is no other parts for it listed in the 20P or the 34P either? I did have a problem with it when I ran just distilled water. It kept saying the coolant was low because...

    AC 60G glow plug issue

    G070s are the correct dual filament plugs. The G60s are what they call fast start and can swell with the long wait time of the CUCV GP controller. I think you can get the G070s from a dealer for less the $60.00 I keep them in stock all the time just in case one comes in and needs them. Now...
