    Generator to house transfer switch.

    I know I should search this because I have seen it on here but I am sort of running short on time. I am going down to mount and wire the transfer switch now and I still have equipment to move tomorrow. I hope you guys can cut me some slack this time and point me towards the post. What I need is...

    MEP003 siezed up

    To scrap it you would have to take it all apart or you will get screwed. The skid is aluminum, generator is a lot of copper and the engine is aluminum and steel. I would strip it down and sell the parts. The control panel alone is a pretty penny, then you have the injection pump, injectors, fuel...

    M43 Resurrection

    I have not made it to the end of the thread yet but I saw the bit about the stainless bolts in the exhaust. You might want to rethink that. Stainless is soft and the threads gall as they are put in, once heated they will break right off coming out. The M-151 has that problem all the time. I...

    Can M35A3's runaway?

    I had an old White OTR tractor run away on me. It was a yard truck at that point and it was receiving NO maintenance at all. I would bring a trailer into the yard and drop it and then use this yard truck to move the trailer since it was a short day cab and easier to move around the yard. As I...

    Rear Diff Smells like a Sewer PLUS: ID these diff parts???

    Pulling the rear drive shaft will not help. The axles are still turning the differential.

    Rear Diff Smells like a Sewer PLUS: ID these diff parts???

    Why would ANY shop install a NEW differential and not check the fluid! I mean it is NEW, as in never used as in NEVER filled. That does not fall under warranty, that falls under stupidity or incompetence. Your choice. They should be held liable. Rick

    URGENT MIGRATION recall from GOVT

    You totally lost me now????????????????????? I do personally know people who have had agents knock on their door and ask to see such and such equipment. They had copies of the EUC in hand. If it had been sold they wanted to see a receipt, no if's and's or buts. No matter if it was scrapped as...

    Mule hauling question

    Or you could mount the winch on the floor in the front and run the cable under the mule and hook to the front. This would also help get the wheels over the wheel hump because you would be pulling back but not down as if tied to the rear. Rick

    URGENT MIGRATION recall from GOVT

    Interesting, as I said I know nothing about it, just posted the link. I guess having the police not be able to enter might be good in some instances but I could see it being bad in more cases. Like medical emergency or fire or just something as simple as a patrol when you are away. I will not...

    URGENT MIGRATION recall from GOVT

    Did a Google search on the UCC thing since I don't have a clue what it is. Here is what I came up with, by the way the UCC number in the quoted post has been updated to the current number you are using. Apparently they do this occasionally to keep things current. NOTE the last sentence. Rick...

    URGENT MIGRATION recall from GOVT

    About a year ago they sold hundreds of NEW still in the original crate, 3K generators. I bid on quite a few but they went higher than I was willing to pay for a 3K. Rick

    Can anyone ID this Generator

    They went to 24 volt with the M38, early 50's. I have one the looks sort of like that one but it is in sad shape. What were you looking to get for it? Rick
