    Which gearbox, the transmission or the transfer case? I have several good transfer cases and have access to expediters to Africa.

    Clark 5 speed transmission used in Studebaker US6

    Should be a 204VO. Non-synchro. .79 overdrive. It is a great transmission, but you have to learn to double clutch. Welcome to Steelsoldiers.

    M916: Low Air Pressure

    Let me know if you can find a kit in BCS. My understanding is that Barrman and I will cross paths here in Hou on Sunday, and I can send a kit back with him. Houston Truck Parts has them here. They are open Sat.

    M916: Low Air Pressure

    For sure it's the Bendix AD-2 air dryer. See the M916 Tech Tips page 17 for my post on the problem. There is a $10 kit that fixes the sneeze valve and all is well. When the valve weeps, it keeps the air compressor from building full air. Aftermarket kit is BEPCO 287053

    Atomic Annie and Two Prime Movers

    Looks like the display was just set up. Were these moved from APG? That is the only gov facility I know of that has been restoring this kind of equipment.

    need help identifying electrical/comm stuff in S250 shelter

    The switch is the changeover switch from generator A to B when one of them needs to be serviced. I think yours is from the 10 kW sets, these were mounted in 1.5 ton trailers.

    need help identifying electrical/comm stuff in S250 shelter

    Can you tell us what the nomenclature on the door reads or take a pic. That A/C unit is not one of the better ones. Nice to see a shelter that hasn't been gutted and made into a hazmat storage locker. But to be desirable it will need to house an interesting radio set.

    M1009 Car seat Concern

    I would be more concerned about noise. I personally would not put a newborn in a 1009 due to this concern. Then again the baby may find the drone of the 6.2 soothing, what do I know.

    42 Sterling?

    nhs275, thanks for posting. Looks like you have your work cut out for you. At least you don't have to find some kind of rare wrecker boom or body for it. That cab will be quite a project to fix. Keep us posted on the progress.

    Distributor Lines

    If the lines are not hooked up and ventilating, the points will burn up in short order.

    Axle Identification Assistance

    Other posts are correct, the rims are early M34 combat rims. I have 2 on the front of my M275A2. I would love to buy 4 more from you. PM me if you are interested in selling them. As far as worth, it depends: there is "as is" worth, worth if verified not bent/pitted and no egg shaped lug...

    40' semi trailer ID? Picture included.

    Better check the manuals carefully. If memory serves me, the springs on the 3 axles are NOT independent. These are heavy trailers.

    M35a2 Transfer case pto

    Not an air line, an oil line. Plumb it to the bottom of the t-case. It draws oil when the PTO is turning to prevent bearing damage. You can probably skip this if all you are driving is a rear winch. Big shaft with bearings is behind the seat like you said. There are holes already there for it.

    What is this? What does it do? On the M936-A2

    The DATA PLATE discusses setting the torque range, it would appear that the hex nut adjusts the pressure relief valve in the valve body such that hydraulic pressure on the motor is not allowed to exceed a value that exceeds 25,000 lbs pull on the winch.

    GMTK compatible with SECM - not exactly

    Was hoping to add the GMTK to the OVM on my SECM but there was a SNAFU. The Chevy is supposed to carry a 5140-00-388-3416 "Top Chest" (various mfgrs, 13 W, 26 L, 15 H), but as you know these boxes are pretty lightly built these days. Not to mention non-tactical RED color. So I was hoping to...

    Hub Studs Sheared Off - Wrecker - Texas

    Looks like around 15:00 he started the arduous task of hub pulling and pounding out and in 10 studs. It's what, 35 degrees in Austin area? Not best for productivity.

    Not far from you is SS vendor MilitaryTrucks.com, located Liberty Hill, TX (other side of Austin) 512-818-5261. They should have parts and be able to courier them to you.
