    2017 Findlay buy sell trade

    For what you are going to spend on insulation, I'd suggest just buying a brand new hood since they are relatively cheap.

    I am back even though I never really left

    Why not (re: tan)? It looks awesome as it sits.

    Fort Drum GL Chaos

    How nice is the one you got? Is it close (minus the winterization kit)? If so, I guess I'd let it drop. If the one you got is not as nice, I'd contact a lawyer to see what you can do. Unfortunately, if this is how GL operates at that site, your gen set is probably long gone. Good luck.

    M917 driveline knocking?

    PM RRACING; he repaired an M917 that was making a "clunking" noise. I am sure he can fill you in...or you may be able to search this site. I am sorry I can't be of more help.

    Fuel burning heater info

    I am not saying this isn't so, but I have a fuel burning heater in my M925A2. It has been in there almost a decade (I installed it) and it works every time I fire it up...all with over the road diesel plus regular use of conditioner. Maybe I have just been lucky. Any suggestions on keeping it...

    M939 Transfer case

    The handle might also be out of adjustment. John Winslow once had an M936A1 that wouldn't engage at all (HIGH or LOW)...it was only an adjustment issue.

    Hello and a current truck shipping recommendation for delivery of my M1079

    If your quote is for $1.70/mile as quoted above (I have not calculated the exact mileage), that rate is very fair. I usually like to pay no more than $2/mile. The USHIP suggestion above is a good one, too. Or, drive it since you are buying from a private source and can presumably get tags and...

    Are FMTV Drive shafts known to have issues ?

    The data plate is on the dashboard. If you are sitting in the driver's seat, it is located in front of your left knee...angling down toward the floor. It is easiest to inspect when you are on the ground looking up into the cab. Check out our favorite auction site for pictures. Just scroll...

    Are FMTV Drive shafts known to have issues ?

    There was a flaw with the originally designed drive shafts. So, Stewart and Stevenson, the original manufacturer, sent service techs out to the field to replace the drive shafts with a better designed unit. The data plates of all vehicles that were so upgraded should be stamped with a D.

    Brand new to MV. Just bought a M52a2 dump.

    If you end up needing to replace your transmission, get a non-overdrive transmission for a replacement. Your overall top speed will be lower, but your power through all of the gears will be better. I once had an M543A2 with that transmission, and that truck pulled hard all the way through 5th...

    M1123 Purchase and Build Thread - Virginia

    I don't want to come across as an expert, because I only know what little I have read, but, yes, it sounds like your engine block is one of the good ones.

    M1123 Purchase and Build Thread - Virginia

    Thanks for the frequent updates; I have enjoyed reading this thread. I have been eyeing these trucks, too. They look really nice. A good friend of mine told me that these trucks have Chinese blocks that are prone to failure and that is why the USMC is getting rid of them. I did an Internet...
