    Transfer case id

    It has features of the WWII GMC CCKW Timken transfer case. But it is some kind of adaption of that Timken model for who knows what application.

    hints to remove and torque to install m35 temp sending unit

    Use a box end wrench to remove and replace. It is brass and easy to round over the flats. Use a dab of pipe sealant.

    Carb Upgrade

    Keep it stock. Truck pulls like a freight train like it is.

    Military Motorola Saber Radio ???s

    OK, here is where I ended up. I decided to go UHF and no point in buying an expensive "R" model if batteries are not available. I found 5 units in the second UHF split from epay seller cmeyers215. She actually works for an electronics recycling company and they have hundreds of the H44's, all...

    Yes, I drove it home....

    Nice truck. Mine was dump converted as well and also had the frame lopped off after the bogie. The Clark should not be singing.

    M275 Towing Pics

    Rig is turning out nice! That has to be one of the first detach trailers ever made. Don't try this with anything but a LDS.

    New to the herd 1944 Mark 4 Bomb Trailer, restore

    I had one similar. Donated to the Lone Star Flight Museum. They were daisy chained behind M-6 Chevy bomb trucks and GTB's during WWII. Nice display item under B-17s and the like.

    9:00X16 tire Availability

    Wallace Wade Tire has them new but get ready for sticker shock. I've been buying them used from people who are re-axleing M101/A1 trailers they bought from from GL.

    Engine Block #

    MD is correct for a M38A1. MC would have been for a M38.

    Stoplights stay on all the time - even after battery switch turned off

    This is very unusual. I suspect something is wrong with the 3 lever switch. In the off position, all lights are deengergized. The top lever pointing straight up, correct?

    Stoplights stay on all the time - even after battery switch turned off

    The brake lights stayed on with the 3 lever switch in the off position?

    Military Motorola Saber Radio ???s

    Not having much luck figuring this out. The Motorola Saber handheld radio was procured for US military use in the 1990's. Later, just about every PD and FD in the United States had them. What bands were used by the military? I would think the H42 model in the 66-88 Mhz band, so they could...

    What's this hose????

    Tachometer cable. The cut is not a concern.

    M916 owners, a question

    Get the 24x36 plain flap and the 29.75 hanger with the coiled end. The prices on your website are way high. The complete hanger kit (L&R) should be around $50.

    Ozzytrucker requests advice from Stee-Sol members please.

    All the trucks listed you want to see are available in Houston TX at the United States Armed Forces Museum. Open every day except Mon and Tues.

    Master Brake Cylinder Upper Fitting?

    Picture #2 is not a pipe fitting, it is a threaded hole for when the MC is side mounted like in a CCKW!

    M915A1 gets new eyes!

    That mod is next on my list as well. The stock bulbs are as useful as sooty lanterns in the fog. Is ebay the best place to buy these?

    M1009 engine swap

    3 inches? You are not close yet. Make sure the transmission is canted up a little. If you have issues pulling the bellhousing over the locating pins (last 1/2 inch), you can use the bolts to pull it together. But this should go together really smooth without "forcing" anything.
