    M246 Project resurrection

    One thing on these to put in your memory bank, the hydraulics on the boom is stronger than the boom and shipper and both WILL BEND if you overload the crane.

    Help with M35A1 Frame and Engine ID #'s

    Welcome. Help is here and also at the G503 website. The numbers stamped in the frame are Willys internal part numbers especially if the stampings are at an angle. MD 85*** is your VIN or vehicle serial number which should also be on your title and would be on main data plate on the dash...

    M246 Project resurrection

    Wow never on this site has there been TWO M246 rescues going on at the same time. Good luck with it. The parts you need are not anything hard to find. The M246A1, A2 and the M819 used the same jackshaft and rear driveshaft. (verify) You can use an overdrive transmission if you want from...

    M1079 clearance light overload situation

    The M1079 has 24 clearance lights all of which run through this one 25 amp breaker in the PDP which in my case is getting too hot to touch and tripping. I am thinking swap to LED bulbs?

    M135 Shimmy trouble

    Jack rail/rock slider question

    Agree completely, which is why I made my own out of aluminum angle. I will never understand why MSG made all these GMV add on parts out of steel for an aluminum truck.

    M998 Restoration

    Welcome. What many have done with excellent results is to purchase a GovPlanet truck at Yermo, then contract with RetiredWarhorses in the Bay Area to fix it to your specifications. Then have it transported to your AO for you to add your own custom touches whatever they might be.

    Allison transmission issues on a 1078

    Code 45-22 is “open circuit G solenoid”. Definitely results in “DNS” or shift inhibit. Most of the time it’s connector problems. Reseat and clean all your connectors.

    Which wire on fuel pump plug is positive / ground

    Napa had a 24 volt pump in stock? Good to know. I guess you could stick your tongue on something metal stuck in the connector. Tingle is +24.

    Trickle charger / maintainer

    My BatteryMinders do that too, they are fooled by the voltage not being 13 ish. In no time they cycle up to showing 100%.

    M1031 Build Thread

    Finally a M1031 build thread where the first thing someone DOESN’T say is: “I bought this nice M1031 but I really wanted a M1008 so I am scrapping the maintenance bed”
