Who knows why the cutouts are where they are. That is not the polesetter body from a deuce.

I've seen the body on the 939 series cargo wheelbase. That's on an M818 or M817 chassis for sure. The 2 that I have seen are Seabees trucks. Can't find pics right now!

Good news Brandon. See you there.

This might be it but in the dreaded stainless. http://catalog.mooreindhardware.com/item/folding-t-locks---latches/folding-t-handles/4875-82x

Greetings potential and verified rally attendees! We are under 80 days out! It's time to service your vehicles, dig out your surplus and sock away spending cabbage. This is going to be the best rally yet. Remember, the first couple of posts have tons of important and useful info. Check out...

This is very distressing. I think Gimpy could be right. It could be from those non-dismissible banner and/or box (tab) at the bottom of the page.

Wow, that tan one sure looks nice with fresh color. Drew, do you have that 686 color in 55 gallon drums? The color is really growing on me after all these years.

Perhaps consider a 6 point socket. The 14mm is the ever so slightly smaller metric. Might be able to get a better look with a small mirror. My experience has shown many of them never re-installed.

FWIW, all somewhat heavy trailers and big rigs use oil bath bearings. Heck, this seal design has been keeping oil in engines for decades, can't be all bad.

Whats the problem, the rod? Pull it out, clean it up real nice and slather it with sticky grease. That will help hold it in place.

Many of the 2wd trucks had that rear sway bar. It's attached to the axle via the u-bolts and then has links that go to the frame.

Yep, trailer salad!

The military actually came to GM looking for the duals. Some of the shelters are quite heavy and as such, DOD sought a solution. The biggest part of the kit to help with the top heavy sway was the rear sway bar. GM never offered a rear sway bar on the 4x4 trucks, only a front. I would like to...

The wheelbearings getting over filled happens quite often with the offroad crowd. The engineers considered this. Once the vehicle is level, any gear oil that migrated in excess, just drains back into the rear via the spindle bore, just like it came. The wheelbearing grease upon assembly is an...

I vaguely remember seeing something like those used in conjunction with the auto locking hubs offered for a while on the GM half and 3/4 tons. Could be very wrong.

Green swaybars are much faster.

But we lack a railroad forum. Go fig!

As a former owner of a few of those, I always look when I see one. I've never seen one singled out but there has to be one out their somewhere. Welcome aboard.

They are different. There is a reachable lip on the front that is easily drilled for bolting to the trailer frame. The back will need 2" of spacer to bring the body into alignment. Any center mounts I never got around to making before I sold mine.

That spot is the most common place for windows to appear. Here is the good news, there is still a fair number of multifuels out there. Bad news is that most are from deuces. Good news is that they can be refitted to work in your tipper. Bad news is that they will be low on power in comparison...
