That is the blackout drive lamp. The wires that run to the BO lighting system are easy to spot, they are the black rubber covered wires. The M880s were from the 4 color MERDC camouflage era, and there are patterns for that. I THINK that when the 880s got the 3 color NATO scheme, the pattern...

Nope. Tube type.

The 900 series 5 ton uses a Allison MT654 transmission which is almost never the cause of problems with that series truck. That said, if you prefer shifting, and enjoy days of hard work to make it happen, it is a parts swapping exercise to remove the manual transmission, flywheel, and so forth...

I would say your voltage regulator is a goner. The overvolt condition blew up your battery. If you run it again, more things will blow. Disconnect the alternator until repairs can be made.

The combat rim is for tubeless tires, the 11.00-20 is a tube type tire.

Mkcoen is absolutely correct, with your Gov Planet paperwork you should have no problem registering the truck any way you want. I registered mine Texas Truck plates so I would not have to worry about the FMV restrictions of "parade use" etc. It has happened in other states as well, the tax...

MD Juan left those holes off because there is so much variation in people's Jeeps. Simply remove the pedal from the clutch arm, allow the arm to rest on the bottom of the floorboard, and mark the hole you need on the bottom of the floorboard through the hole in the end of the arm.

I run Delo 400LE.

Search "DOT copper tube air brake fittings". Hardware store WILL NOT HAVE DOT approved fittings!

WHERE IS YOUR HOLDDOWN???? What happens when you hit a bump and all the batteries fly up and contact the underside of the seat? POOF buy an alternator.

Apparently they will run until water runs into the air intake stack. That said, I would personally not drive in water above the bottom of the fixed cab step. None of the electric components in the cab are intended to be submerged.

Did you try to cage the brakes that were stuck? Not happy to hear GP is allowing cannibalization of trucks sold or about to be sold.

Post your VIN and maybe we can figure it out. The multifuel 5 tons were built from about 1965 to 1969, when the 800 series replaced them.

I believe the serp system is the new standard in reliability. My Ranger with serp went 360K with no repairs to the serp system, the Chevy I just parted went 340K and everything serp related appeared original. Of course the belt has to be changed at 100K.

Maybe fuel starvation. The in tank pickup may have rust holes allowing air in instead of gas. See if you are getting a solid stream of gas from the pump when you crank the engine after a stall.

The mechs expect the truck/vehicle to be scrapped, so they drain fluids in preparation for that. Big no-no to spill liquids on the ground these days. So school us on this Rhino, is it different from the usual ones like the John Deere M-Gators are?

Sounds like some GI was in the process of cannibalizing these parts, or had replaced them and failed to tighten the mounting bolts. Then when you got the truck and inspected it stem to stern you missed all this. My best guess. These Cat engines are not known for shedding accessories at will.

Finding the Chevy truck 6.5 parts is not difficult, in fact I just bought a residue "97 2500 in Dickinson not a week ago, posted the parts here and promptly sold the dressed 6.5 engine to Barrman which I delivered last Fri! All the serp water pumps are reverse rotation to the best of my...

I have brought three non-runner LMTVs back to life, and each has taken WEEKS of diagnostics and parts searching.
