    All the M135s had those, the M34 Reo did not.

    Trying to identify a new purchase 5 ton

    Looks like a M61A2. I can't figure out the 95"26"-XXXXX though. What was the "26" series?

    Nice GMC! Red River Parts in New Boston can help you with troop seats and Feltz Tire across I-30 from there may have 7 new 11.00's for you. Someone kept that truck in a barn for a long long time. Love the USA number 41111124, easy to stencil back on.

    T-136 Normal tempetaure operating range.

    What was ambient temperature? If is was a 95 degree day and the spec is for a 60 degree day, you are most likely still in spec. These transfers typically give warning signs when failing, like wobbly shafts, leaks, noise. The shop vans put a lot of strain on the powertrain due to weight and...

    Help with gauge cluster wiring

    That is a nightmare. My only advice is to find the other end of the cut wire and connect one probe of your ohmmeter to it and check each cut wire for continuity. One wire will end up at the fuel tank sender, one at the oil pressure sender, and one at the temperature sender. One will have +24...

    Vehicle history

    https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/carnacs-historical-vin-info-thread.193055/page-4 See post 63. If you can find your truck in the list, that means it was a US Army truck in service into the 1990s. Sorry no unit IDs were stored in the database.

    So I bought a Het...

    Better check the date codes on the 16.00s before you send a driver. If they are ancient, a blowout is likely. Suggest having it hauled. The wheels are 20” with a very untypical bolt circle.

    Title Regis. in Texas

    SEEs "KINDA" meet the requirements for machinery plates in TX. No title on machinery. MIGHT be an avenue to go down if all else fails. Personally I would probably consider buying a SEE with a bill of sale and machinery plates.

    Help with military markings

    Oh and by being listed in the TEDB database, your truck was used by the US Army.

    Help with military markings

    Your truck is a 1968. It shows up in the historical database, see post 4, M54A2WW file, page 34: Find "5F4585" https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/carnacs-historical-vin-info-thread.193055/ No unit data is given unfortunately.

    Air compressor unit D2475-80

    The red circled device is the pop off valve also called the pressure relief valve. It's purpose is to vent if the unloader fails to shut off the compressor and it runs away. It should vent at probably 190 PSI. If it's venting all the time, work it loose with some WD-40 so it isn't stuck open.

    M105A2 VIN/registration for Texas

    If you found stamped numbers that should be golden. It is hopeless to get a revised sf97 if you are not the auction buyer.

    M105A2 VIN/registration for Texas

    The mistake was made when someone accepted an incorrectly filled out SF97. Now it’s a nightmare. There is almost no way to title it other than bonded.

    Air compressor unit D2475-80

    No idea on the button, but the 2 cylinder compressor should make air until the unloader trips out at around 150 psi. Then the engine and compressor just runs until the pressure drops to say 90, at which time the unloader trips again and air is made.
