Those are rare vehicles, you're best off selling it and buying something more fitting. I'm not speaking purely from the standpoint of preserving the truck but they had a lot of unique parts, are tall, old, hard to find tires, etc.. There are a few that were made with expando bodies on them but...
Pulled right from the TM. Also, as long as you're planning to do 55mph tops your solid. Toss on some 395s and get 62 mph cruising easy. Having had the 7155 in an M916 and the 5 speed Allison in the M915A1 I much more enjoy the Allison, I just wish it had an O/D.
Ditto. Act quick as I stopped by there 2 weeks ago and just about everything MRAP related is gone. They may have some stuff hidden away or off site...you never know.
I'm at this step with my M270A1. I just put in a new wiring harness today but have been stalling with the wood until I find the right one. I wasn't aware treated wood could mess with the steel. :?
The M923 will be better suited for your needs due to simpler design, easier to source parts, and general costs. If you managed to get an M923A2 your mileage would be between 8-12 mpg compared to the 5 of the 1083A1, this is assuming for cargo truck configuration not carrying a box. The other...
Its been a busy week. I parted out what good was left of this M813. She had water damage, mad max style roll cage from the VFD, ^@%# rat-nest wiring, a ton of torch holes where they installed piping for the pods in the bed, and then left out in the elements for about 5 years. I was clued into a...
Torch it gently bit by bit, there's no other way. The spindle is very hardy but still take your time with it. If you widdle down opposing sides of the inner bearing you can take a hammer and chisel to it for the last bit and hopefully break it in half. Make sure to wipe all that grease off...
I've not found a rustoleum green that is close, the camo brown and camo black are great though. I've been using the gillespie carc 383 substitute and will be playing with the Behr paint soon so check into those instead.
Nope, a deuce isn't really even up to the task. Get a 5 ton to move it or else it will push your F-250 through an intersection. You can cage the rear brakes like any civilian system.
I'm needing help identifying and sourcing a replacement brake pod for the tan one in the photo. I've been able to get the model 3672257C92 off of it but the only thing that comes up is the black pod in the photo, clearly not the same. The city who owns the vehicle and physically possesses the...
If the key is broken it wont run at all, if the key is about to break it will run..until it breaks. I was told my upper GL management that that yard is expanding their pickup days beyond just Wednesday but haven't been there in person to confirm this change. You may be able to have a tow truck...
