    Removing Cab

    Berend did that 1081 come from a European auction? What year is it? What are those triangular protrusions on the bumper? Never seen those.

    If the engine is already full of rain it won’t be worth your time

    Found a number plate and need help

    Others will chime in that know exactly but as memory serves me that number is an internal Dodge factory number. Unrelated to anything.

    Transmission won’t shift into third

    Popping out of gear is often related to the gears not being in proper alignment due to internal spline wear on the gear.

    Painted on lunette bolt... removing CARC?

    Aircraft paint remover will cut CARC but honestly when you put your impact on that nut, the castle will flake the paint right off.

    what is the shelf life of paint?

    Yes the Gillespie paint lasts forever, just have to stir the crap out of it. The 2 part paints are what go bad when moisture migrates into the can.

    Option b is fix your leaks. I maintain a M1079 for FD and it holds 100 psi for weeks.

    Looking for Recommended Transporters for Tracked APC

    Oh you need United States of Freight for that, needs to go on a drop deck shared load with other cargo to get a rate around $2/mile. USF understands Army crap.

    Detroit Diesel

    Oh no don’t junk it. Fuel system on Detroits is super simple, a gear fuel pump driven from an accessory drive and 6 unit injectors actuated by rockers from the cam under the valve cover. Either must be leaking into the engine. Pull the valve cover and run it and see if you see fuel leaking.

    M1089AO with transmission issue.

    Lots of us have had great luck with transmissioninstruments.com. The guy will diagnose for free and not charge you if your controller is good, which in your case is very unlikely.

    How does the m1078 4x4 work?

    Did you press “mode”? Sorry to ask the obvious.

    Question from a new guy

    Easiest route is probably getting a “shopmade” trailer title, technically that is incorrect but nobody will care, correct process is to do a bonded title.

    What year is it, REALLY?

    That number is not related to the VIN. It is an internal number at the manufacturing plant.

    OIL PUMP REMOVAL L134

    Yes with the distributor pulled and engine at tdc #1 fire position, use a flashlight to look down the bore at the slot on the oil pump, repeated stab it until you get it where is needs to be for the rotor to point at #1 tower.
