    M series 3 lever light switch cannon plug

    I specifically look for the old stuff. The 1960's 60 amp alternator is way better than the newer ones.

    Well, I done did it. Won a m1078. Need to get it home... In Wahington - any suggesti

    Mkcoen is correct. Close to 11'. When I recovered my 1078, it was way over 14 on my trailer, requiring me to remove the rear cover and bows by myself, an ordeal I recall.

    NEED HELP with LMTV M1078, Right Rear wheel stuck after parking brake applied

    The parking brake will self apply when the air leaks out of the tanks over time. Suggest caging the cans on that wheel to assist with diagnosis.

    M1000 HET Trailer Kingpin

    I was wondering if you were running the 215's. Gensco told me every one they sold blew out on a customer so they quit selling them.

    I like it! So can you stretch out completely? Nothing worse than trying to rest with your knees bent all night.

    To me, in picture 27, there looks to be a hole over the rusty yoke. Hope I'm wrong.

    It's not scrap. With what these are bringing these days, I bet a lot of folks who parted these out wish they hadn't. It's a beautiful truck, and I hope the transmission picture is just glare or something. A lift tow wrecker can tow these super easy, see the sticky about pulling the rear axle...

    Sure, the auction for YOUR truck is over now. I figured it was the bargain priced one.

    Congrats! Did you get the one with the hole in the transmission? See if you can find someone with a Landoll trailer to haul it, with the the rear cover on, it is overheight on most trailers.

    60 kw generator injector pump issue

    You do not mention cranking the engine. If the IP does not turn via cranking the engine, no fuel will go to the injectors.

    Working on the FV1801A or Truck, 1/4 Ton, 4×4, CT, Austin Mk.1 AKA Austin Champ

    Bad gas almost always requires a total fuel system overhaul. Rust and goop will keep plugging filters and sticking floats. And I have learned that using bad gas as a weedkiller will ensure that you will smell that gas for at least 2 years.

    1987m m998 no power to batteries.

    Carefully inspect the connector that goes into the box, water gets into it and the wire can burn off or have a bad connection. Meanwhile there should be no problem connecting the alternator output directly to the battery, most mil trucks are wired like that. Thanks for helping out in PR.

    M915 opinions wanted

    The 400 does not smoke, you need to have the PT pump rebuilt. 68 mph in an A1 with 11R22.5s is at the point of the engine coming apart. Keep it at 2100 rpms which is around 55 mph.

    Blew something up...

    Battery probably melted off a link inside. Can't withstand 6000 amps for long. I bet you don't pull that again.
