    M35 Reo 13A - Gasser to M109A3 Conversion

    It very well could be a mistamp on the "3" or "8" part but the V is clearly a dash.

    M35 Reo 13A - Gasser to M109A3 Conversion

    I will tomorrow when there is light and I change the fuel line. She's a bizarre unit indeed. :D

    M35 Reo 13A - Gasser to M109A3 Conversion

    I've got an interesting M109A3 that shows major signs of being not just a gasser in it's past life but an auger unit as well. I've got no year or manufacturer on it, one tag does show the truck was reconditioned by Reo Model: 13A Serial: 107000. I've found no information on this specific model...

    Kansas readiness placards

    Agreed, the Kansas programs has had the best overhauled trucks I've gotten my hands on. I had 7 sister trucks, all ready to be issued with BII and etc just waiting to be used. New batteries and fuel lines but never a problem past that.

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    Jeepsinker and Nofearnohope were giving me a hand today getting some 109s back on their feet. First one is alive and well. More to come.. also the perk of working with a wrecker (shade!)

    M923 Cummins NTC 250 Overheating

    Sadly yes, it was my default troubleshoot. I can feel the heat radiating off the engine with the hood open, it's unnaturally hot. I've used the temp gun to trace coolants flow and it does seem to stay hot behind the pump and cool after it so the pump is what I'm looking at next. Yes, in fact...

    M923 Cummins NTC 250 Overheating

    I've got a cummins 250 that is acting up on me and over heating. I've flushed the system 4 times to remove the build up and checked the water pump so all feels to be in good working order. The engine will creep up to 220 if I let her idle for about 10 minutes and the radiator doesn't get above...

    HEMMT Tire - Putting in tubes?

    If you have the old style valve stems with the 90 degree extension that may be your issue if not the o-ring. All 3 of my slow leaks were due to those extensions losing their seal and they're not easy to replace. Break it down. :x

    What have you done to your HEMTT/PLS/MK48 this week

    Sold mine today. An LHS would suit my need much better.

    EUC Requirement for HEMTT?

    Got it too but already went through the EUC process. Hmm..

    What have you done to your HEMTT/PLS/MK48 this week

    Unfortunately it's either 8x8 or the interaxle lock and since I was bigger than the hole it didn't matter much either way, I'm sure I could have made it through with regular drive. I just needed a little momentum to flatten the opposing wall (literally a vertical wall) of the mud pit, which was...

    What have you done to your HEMTT/PLS/MK48 this week

    Linking this stuff over from the TX Rally thread, thanks Mike! Overall the HEMTT was great on power, handling, and traction. A little rough of a ride on those potholes but what MV isn't, right? The only thing that stopped me from leveling everything was the fear of bottoming out the fuel tank on...

    2016 TX MV Rally

    I've got the M101 loaded up with goodies, I'll be vending time to time at the museum but will be breaking off for a while to have fun at the ranch with the HEMTT and convoy back down to the museum. It should be funny to see the m977 towing an itty bitty m101. It's almost debatably easier to just...

    2016 TX MV Rally

    The route Trailboss is taking was traveled successfully by an M923A1 towing an M818 towing an m720 towing an m1101 so with some luck he wont have any trouble...or have to back up. rofl
