    T-72M1 Finally Made It!

    Hey Dave. Ive always like the T72's and the prices are not bad but I gave a hard time squeezing through the drivers hatch! I'm not a big man but it's super tight. There were a large lot of turbine T80's for sale in the Ukraine but when they joined NATO they stopped export. I finally got export...

    An American Deuce in Canada

    I've had many 1017's. Though under powered they are a good truck. I hate to think what would have happened to the driver if he was in a 6x6. The MB cab saved him.

    Updated pg #5; I now own a 1990 M923A2.

    If my wife knew just how many pieces of equipment I really have I would be more than just in the dog house. She still thinks I have only one tracked unit. Nice truck!

    M916A1 Hauler

    One negative thought the 916 is a short wheel base and I've always seen CA trucks long wheel base. I thought it was because of some bridge law you have there. You may already know this.

    M916A1 Hauler

    The added feature of have a winch would let you use a removable goose neck trailer or even folding goose neck. Plus having the winch would be nice if you have to winch something up the trailer. I think it would be a good choice depending on pricing.

    M916A1 Hauler

    I don't own one but I do know the specs. It's pretty HD. It's not a M1070 but it's pretty strong and the Detroit 8V92 is a torque motor. What are you going to haul?

    M929A2 Dump Truck Brake Light Problem

    Try the easy things first as in checking the bulbs. Then go to the switch under the dash / pedal fire wall I think you call it sending unit? had a 931A1 that I had to change it out.

    M923A1 coolant system overpressurizing when COLD and not running ?

    I agree with R Racing. I think this would be a fast way to find out. Don't leave out head gasket leaking as a maybe!

    1953 M37 Won't start need advice

    WI think you need to identify the starter as 12 or 24 volt first. I don't have experience in your truck but I do on the 939 series and they are marked 24 volt. Like NDT said it could have been converted to 12. Are the lite bulbs marked 12 or 24? When you jumped it were you using 12 volt?

    Spain M35 Registration

    As in Italia you must use an agency. Are you trying this direct with the DMV? Like Italian Spain's DMV is so corrupt that you must use a agency and PAY to get your documents. It sucks that a person can't go direct and do it his self but the Latino attitude is everyone needs to work!

    1953 M37 Won't start need advice

    Or maybe this is why the starter won't turn as in 12 volts going into a 24 volt starter.

    Looks like parallel 12 volt to me too.

    New M923A2 Owner

    If it was used in Europe it should have the double upper and lower front turn signals. I will attach a photo of one of my A1's.

    Happy birthday to me (trans cooler failed)

    I think that's a good idea. The lighter the better and also the cheapest. I use the A2 with the air cooler to pull the APC's. I was always in super hot temps pulling the trailer which is heavy by it self and the APC's. But when I eliminated that water cooled trans system the temps went down by...
