    M3A1 Stuart Tank With E5R2 Flamethrower Fuel Tank Unit Installed!!!

    Very cool. Looks like a nitrogen? tank that pressurizes some kind of flammable liquid? Is the discharge nozzle attached to the 37 mm? Did a radio usually go in that spot?

    New early deuce owners in Oklahoma *Lucy*

    Well what can we tell you. The main data plate says M135 without winch, build year 5/52. M135 is the single rear wheel truck and given the way the hubs are set up on your rear tandem, that is what you have. Can you look for the stamped VIN on the frame under the passenger side fender kinda...

    Will these rims fit?

    Those aluminum rims are off MRAPs and that bolt pattern is not 10 hole Budd and will not fit.

    Various dates on an LMTV M-1079

    Yup fuzzy nailed it. The FMTV was Stewart and Stevenson’s first rodeo with road trucks, prior to this they built off highway vehicles only. The factory was right off I-10 and over the years I would see hundreds of partially completed trucks sitting outside in the weeds, waiting for this that...

    Stranded in Grand Junction, Colorado.

    How did you check the wires? When resistor wires degrade they don't pass enough energy to fire the plug when the engine is under load.

    Stranded in Grand Junction, Colorado.

    That’s a thousand miles away, best hot shot haul rate you will get is $2.00/mile, suggest fix whatever failed right there with that money rather than blow it on hauling.

    600V 60KW 3Ph 50/60hz Set

    Use a calculator like this: https://www.rapidtables.com/calc/electric/kW_to_Amp_Calculator.html to go from kW to amps at the two voltages. If your machine has starting surge current, your 60kW generator will not start it. If it has a big AC motor, the 90kW they were previously using is about right.

    600V 60KW 3Ph 50/60hz Set

    I'd look into a 480 to 600 step up transformer in order to use a standard generator set.

    M-52 Recovery

    Your VIN 9524-130XX comes back as a 1968 Kaiser Jeep. I think some depot didn't have the proper data plates at rebuild time and used some older plates they had.

    Stuck plug on old control box.

    Well first of all you are supposed to remove the pins from the connector body before you solder them using a special tool that nobody has. Then you must properly prep the end of the wire such that there is absolutely no corrosion of any type on all the strands or the solder won't take. Then...

    Stuck plug on old control box.

    That connector is no simple task to solder on. If your mechanic is not skilled as an electronics tech, don’t bother buying just the connector.

    Truck markings/identification

    That's your VIN, for sure your truck is a 1972, but your VIN number or the NK02HT is not in the database unfortunately.

    Undercoating

    They can but be aware they will spray that stuff over whatever substrate you present. If your undercarriage has rust, they will spray over it and it will continue to rust and blister up the undercoating. Then you get to scrape it all off and start over.
