    M561 from California to Georgia

    Goat is 20 feet long, won’t fit in MTVR. That’s the issue with the haul cost, takes up most of a drop deck trailer. Rates around $2/mile for those.

    6.5 GEP NA or 5.9 12v NA?

    The 6.5 TD in my 2000 Chevy K3500 has more power than I know what to do with. It will pull 20,000 lbs up a long hill easy and spin tires if I jump on the throttle. I wouldn't dream of replacing it with a Cummins.

    oil pump replacement

    Just stand it with the shaft up and pour oil in the holes and spin it and pour in some more. Don’t dump it out before you install. Watch oil pressure gauge when you fire up.

    Just bought a water buffalo, M107A2 I think. What do I need to pull her home?

    Maybe check under the wheel bearing caps for rust or water given the sale disclosure.

    This is It

    The army has been using sand color spray paint to paint rectangles on green trucks and then stenciling the unit markings on as they see fit. That painted over decal appears to be the DTID sticker which is useless, scrape it off.

    Weird Start Problem - Battery smoke?

    Next time it “loses electric” leave the switch on and open the battery box and start taking measurements. Smoke came from an intermittent connection that is in there not elsewhere. Look for crusty dust between the cable strands and cable terminals.
