They fit well on a rental car hauling trailer from U haul and you can get a buddy with a one ton pickup to go grab it...or a landscape trailer or a flat bed type pickup...or many other ways... Send a rollback wrecker to get it off base...

Review the rules re interstate vs intrastate commerce.....for your state... The inspectors can call it a safety inspection and gig ya for no valve caps if they are in the mood...

Many things happened in the early years... reduced 2 to 1 air valve under dash... removed under hood trouble light plug.. Instruments from 12V with resistors to std M series 24V type. Light swithes with separate front and rear harness connectors to a single connector. Rear suspension...

RE: wash I am pretty sure that the CARC will not damage the car wash or its operators unless they drink the effluent.

And to add to the excellent post above, make sure your MC vent is not clogged...just take off the fording line and put a differential vent in the hole and see if your problem is corrected...easier even, is just to take the fording line off for a while to see if the problem is fixed... and be...

I would suggest that after 40 years, that the MAG be serviced at a good farm tractor shop.

"Ka chunk" is just about right varies a little based on 80 or 120 psi.. Drain air tanks daily..

Do we have overheating problems with the OEM? The MF is a cold blooded beast...I usually have to run the winter bra with little door open here in the summer to get up to good temp...about 190 or so under most conditions..

They were originally part of the winterization kit...a couple of small hose clamps will seal the tops off to prevent the rush of coldair up the shafts.

RE: Pedal stroke Don't forget to check the length of the pushrod on the MC

Mack? Would have either the 6602 gasser or the ENDT673 Mack Engine...unless it was an early gasser subjected to the conversion to Multifuel Engine. Of course, it may be the M123 series, too... as the topic is "5 ton and up" In that case it is the V8-300 a small version of the 903/4 (I...

The Deuce was designed to go 40 mph in convoys...you can tow anything you want right up to the max towed load indicated on your data plates, it varies by wheel base and configuration... you can have surge brakes, air brakes, and with the right kit, electric brakes on your trailer.. remember that...

Yup, had never seen one in use before... leaves no room in the bottom for water and trash to collect...had seen them in use intank though...in various rigs...wonder how they seal the bottom

Never have I seen a pioneer tool rack in a M1008. However, I did bolt one to the inside of the front panel of the pickup box one time...and the #2 D handled spade point shovel, and the 4 lb single blade axe with handle and the pick mattock with handle fit just fine with the three straps.

RE: Word to the wise for vehciles that have been sitting! FI I had a nest of snakes in the last M1008 I got from the USForest Service in NH...they sound funny going into the shop vac for sure...released em into the wild so they could walk home....

Don't forget to rust proof the bottom... or you will wind up with just a layer of rhino lining with no metal under it!!

The Transfer case is alway engaged whenever you have air pressure. The 5 tons have notoriously lazy sprags. You need to be sure the air switch on the tranny is working right and that the shaft in the forward - reverse section of the sprag in the xfer is moving fully when you shift the tranny...

Make sure the vent line is clear and be sure to bleed the booster first and put in your OHT while you are under there.
