    Pre M48 Conversion - Handling & ride question

    Get a spring driver’s seat. As you go faster the rear tandem will just bounce over bumps, spending a good bit of time in the air. I used to watch them as I drove with the cab top off alot.

    Help needed/truck stuck - Cycling pneumatic relay under PDP in 2000 M1088 w/3126

    "Find" as in a new one or on the truck? You know, could there be a possibility that they poked a hole in a tire? The system is supposed to keep the tires at pressure and overcome small leaks.

    Help needed/truck stuck - Cycling pneumatic relay under PDP in 2000 M1088 w/3126

    The big one. I suspect it’s the valve module not the controller.

    Help needed/truck stuck - Cycling pneumatic relay under PDP in 2000 M1088 w/3126

    Fan solenoid and CTIS control live there. I would guess CTIS as the fan doesn’t consume air.

    M1078 crane options/alternatives?

    Some of us with LMHC envy adapted Vestil truck jib cranes such as the WTJ-4. You have to fabricate a socket base to use the square bed hole. Thread here somewhere from 8 years ago.

    Wider where, in the back or front or both? The deuce and M37 have the same windshield width. So if the width is way more at the windshield, I have no idea. The 900 series 5 ton is wider, but it didn't exist in 1962. The window design could be different.

    Please help me make a plan to Move from Tampa To Chattanooga with shipping containers.

    Carefully study the boom loading chart for the wrecker. With the shipper fully extended, you will not be able to pick up 15,000 lbs. Your loaded combination will be deep into CDL territory. Big money and hassle to run legal.

    Sounds an awful lot like a Deuce cab cover. What aspect of it is too big for a M37? Obviously the M37 did not use the twist lock fasteners over the door. But the 2.5, 5 and 10 ton did.

    Can you describe them? The listing shows “body cover” as opposed to “cab cover”
