See post by VTM880 right before your post in 880 forum for a nice interior pic. Yup engine is blue, air cleaner black, inner fenders and firewall black. Frame was unpainted. All sheetmetal olive drab.

6.5 TD Chevy trucks all have electric fuel pumps and they are widely known to fail and leave you stranded.

I believe you have a 2006 engine. Mine starts with 02 and the truck is a 2002. Edit: I remembered wrong. Mine has a trailing J and THAT means 2002. You have a 2011 looks like.

I wish I knew more about this, all I know is that the second letter indicates vehicle family and the registration numbering system that starts with N was launched in 1972 and is still in use.

I guessed people were assuming that and that is quite wrong.

How do you know it’s a national guard truck? The unit markings are painted over.

See if this manual can help you. Remember to send your ECU to transmissioninstruments.com for diagnosis and repair if need be.

That is a nice one! Does not show any fire department hacking. Where did you find it?

My guess is the frozen pinion is a direct result of the water ingress. Replace everything for peace of mind.

Sorry I feel bad for suggesting that.

See if the engine turns over, if so, getting it running might allow you to grant her wish, and will make the sale to the next person more appealing. Brakes however will need to be 100% replaced and that’s not a quick job.

Can you squeeze a battery impact driver in there? That impact action tends to loosen things better than raw torque.

Not military, that is a late 60's CJ-5. Unless you want a CJ-5, clean it up and flip it to someone who is crazy about those.

Grab the head of the clevis pin with vise grips then wedge a screwdriver between the assy and the jaw.

As far as bed holes, often these carried the PE-95 generator. Would be a centered rectangular pattern.

There is some kind of retrofit kit to add an access panel in the truck floor right above the fuel pickup, I don’t know any details on this.

That pulse is the self-resetting circuit breaker reacting to a short circuit in the lighting circuit. Find the short circuit. The circuit breaker is inside the light switch.

I would not use it. Too old, this technology would not be considered safe anymore.

The original intent was that you pull the entire grille/core support/nose as one piece.

No, I would locate the problem and fix it and replace any wires that have degraded insulation. No need to replace good parts.
