    Operating PSI and GPM of AW wrecker hyd.pump

    1500rpm, 1200psi. Pump pressure is set with relief valve, no such thing as raw pump pressure. m936 is a completely different system.

    Not sure. My quiet generator is fixed, but small for both campers. I may be getting a 4000 RV unit. And I think we will be too far away. Wait and see what happens.

    1974 M35A2 Mulit 5th gear "knocking" issue

    Passenger seat and tunnel out will allow you to use 1/2 impact, 6 or 4 in extension, and tighten, loosen the bolts for the short driveshaft/jackshaft. It's come loose on me also, used loctite on the bolts after that. Crossmember in other truck is banged from where it came loose on that one.

    Needle gun/Scaling gun

    No such thing as quiet when it comes to needle scalers. Rust builds up in the grove on the backside of the drum, that the backing plate fits into. Then you get scraping noises when it rubs. Just a habit to needle scale the rust out whenever drums are off.

    Allison M916 + Mk48 Cab = 6x6 "FEMTT"

    They do rotate in opposite directions, but are 1 to 1 ratio. So if they rotate and miss, they will miss every time.

    The road in counts as a trail to me! It may get further in the campground.

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    Finally got a little warmer, 30 degrees and windy, so fixed the M108's starter and fuel system. It's been down since Christmas. Used starter put in, cleaned/changed fuel filters, and topped them off with diesel. It finally starts and runs nice. Starter switch is shot thou. Today the M35 got...

    More engine problems (Documentation of testing fuel system, failure of Hyd Head)

    Posted earlier in this thread that I was having some issues. Replaced the starter, fresh filters filled with diesel, and the truck is running great.

    Allison M916 + Mk48 Cab = 6x6 "FEMTT"

    I work around industrial machinery every day, and your work looks factory, and even better than some I've seen. Nice welds, chamfered holes, beveled edges, and smooth cuts. I just got in from working outside in the cold, not my favorite thing!

    M108.... Need some value opinions!

    They are rare, and don't sell enough to get a good idea on price. I've seen anywhere from 1700 for a rusty, non-runner, to 6000 for a runner, but not original. Pretty rare to see one in this condition, not rusty and has not been bubbafied. Seen one with a multi for 19,000, it was nice, but...

    LMTV broke down, HEMMT wrecker taking it for a ride.

    If you want everything not spinning, but the tires, pull the rear axles shafts, and put a cover on them. Only thing spinning is the wheel bearings.
