    How old is too old

    The Michelin 14.00’s are notorious for blowing out. If I were in your situation, especially if I had a heavy expandovan, I would switch over to Goodyear MVT 395s already mounted on FMTV wheels. Feltz Tire is a good source for these. Two pallets of 3 tires each will run you around $350...

    It’s time when they look like that.

    1984 D30 M1008 Project

    Hmm, is the glow plug relay the big metal Ford style? Those do clunk when they close. It should close and open every few seconds but not chatter.

    Uprights and Bows - What do I have?

    No clue, generator trailers had one piece bows like that but the width would be different. Saw ‘em off and call it good. Tarp should just cover top 2-3” of bed sides.

    I have a m35a2 1971 am general with a no throttle response problem. Any ideas on what is the fix is? Thank you Jerry.

    ??? "no throttle response" very clear to me. It runs but when you step on the gas nothing happens. He has a LDT465.

    Nylon hammer? No I have no use for one of those. These trucks sit around and parts inside the injection pump get sticky.

    Mine did that, would just idle. Beating on the injection pump with the throttle applied fixed mine. Maybe you will have similar luck.

    4 speed tranny with overdrive

    The TCM most definitely takes into consideration the throttle position via the TP (throttle position) sensor mounted to the injection pump. It sends a signal of 0.5 volts at closed throttle to 4.5 at wide open throttle. I would suggest you perform diagnostics. 2013 was a long time ago.

    4 speed tranny with overdrive

    I guess it didn’t occur to you that that is not normal and your truck needs maintenance?

    FMTV Hydraulic Hand Pump Leaking and Blew

    The return line tees and supplies both pump’s reservoirs. Sounds like all the fluid is being forced back into the hand pump reservoir. I would study the hydraulic schematic looking for possible culprits like stuck closed check valves.

    Case 1150e / 1155e Dozer / Loader

    I hope yours is newer or has a different drive. The 1150 I was running was a 90’s machine.

    Case 1150e / 1155e Dozer / Loader

    That has the Case version of the 6BT right? That is a strong tractor except for one thing I don’t like. When pushing hard and you press the steering pedal to change direction a little, it completely declutches that track and poof you lose all forward momentum. Other tractors reduce speed on...

    The Goat amazes me again and again

    The 3-53 does not need electricity to run. I suspect there is corrosion between a battery cable and either a battery terminal or where the cable is attached to the chassis.

    Need M110 & M901 & M113 Transport From Indiana to Texas

    Suggest you reach out to UnitedStatesofFreight on here, they are exceptional. Plan B might be to reach out to Keen Transport, they are an heavy haul outfit that moves machinery from the Port of Houston to all over the US, they are always looking for backhauls.

    5 ton battery switch inoperable

    That would mean the battery switch is failed closed. I have never seen that.

    5 ton battery switch inoperable

    Nothing goes “clunk” when you turn the battery switch? Sounds like the protective control box has a stuck on solenoid.
