My understanding it that the Budd number range does not necessarily give you the correct year. What can, however, is the registration number painted on the hood. Is it still there under coats of paint?

He could have a 3 phase generator from WWII and he would have the same problem. A qualified electrician will be able to spec an appropriate transformer to go to 208Y.

Oshkosh was on a roll with design on the M-ATV, but this is the ugliest truck they have ever produced, and they have made some stinkers. So I guess a bigger engine wouldn't fit under the Stewart and Stevenson designed cab, and they were too lazy to retool the cab, so they cheaped out and put...

Google "CCC Centaur". I say no but hope to be corrected.

Visit Walmart and look at the Wrangler Authority only they carry. Tread pattern the same as HMMWV MTR. I was sold and love 'em on my '09.

If you want to see woefully inadequate, go see GP's yard in Hooks, Texas at Red River Depot. Basically a mud pit where all rolling stock is side handled by a front end loader with forks. I have seen demolition derbies where the cars had less damage, all inflicted by GP. GP still does not...

Very disappointed GP is following the GL's silly inefficient model of trucking all this stuff all over the country, only to have us have to truck it all back all over the country. Sell it where is as is at the bases on the DRMO yards. The surplus brings the same money regardless of where it is...

See post 6 of this thread! Really nice part, stock up!

Can anyone tell if the axle pictured in the report is a G749 (M211) or G508 (CCKW)? I think it's 749. Something for all of us to check in our 6x6's.

Yert, after all your experiences with this, is a cab swap worth the trouble? My cab is decent, no rust or dents. Other than the "new car smell", what are the advantages? I suppose the better door latches?

Rust holes in the tank fuel pickup Cab rusting from the inside out along the roof seams Hard starting after sitting for days Ammeter melting

Studs are welded on. Ask Beachwood canvas if they make the seat, it is simple.

See if the turbocharger rotor is wobbling. See if your alternator belts are loose.

Did you remove just the rod or the entire cylinder? I have had great difficulty removing the pin down in the crotch of the boom on several machines so now I just pull the rod and have the shop fix that loose.

No big deal to put an earlier bed on a '43. It has more steel content.
