B3.3T is using the mil designation "M75" (correctly 75M) of the 361 Chrysler V-8 engine that is used in the early M113 APC. He is not referring to the engine in the M75 APC which as you know is the AO-895. There are no civi hotrod parts for the 895, it is a hotrod already!
What I would do is remove the rotary switch from the control panel, and, using an ohmmeter/ continuity tester, write down which terminals connect and disconnect in all the switch positions, and then compare that to the connection diagram in the Marathon tech sheet.
I cannot answer your immediate question, but I would not assume the wire numeric designations from the 1960's MEP are the same as the newer Marathon alternator. I would compare the schematic of the switch with the required connections from the SECM alternator, which are in the tech data sheets...
I see the data plate is not attached to the truck. Was it ever riveted on? I stand by my assertion that your vehicle was a 1960's prototype of a civilian Mite, done in house by AMC. Seems like AM General tried this a second time, with the H1 "Hummer".
There is a kit to rebuild the wheel bearings that includes the retainer, seals, bearings and most importantly, an instruction sheet. You need this kit. Saturn may have some.
In a bigtime pinch, family emergency, cannot get to Hooks to pick up M129A3 van semitrailer, trailer is perfect, need someone to pull off RRAD and store short term, must happen this week and Tues-Wed of next week. Please let me know who can help. Thanks.
TXDMV won't give you a bonded title if there is a good title on record. Y'all are being too paranoid. I bought this spectacular title-less M54A2 from a fellow SS'r and low and behold, the bonded title arrived in the mail today. Usual story, did not apply for a SF-97. Sure the bonded title...
It was a pre-production prototype, one of 14 or so that AM General sent to the crusher. Lets just say somehow they escaped that fate. Mine had a severely bent frame and lots of other problems from being torture tested.
Looks like a nice ambulance. Military could have made a radio carrier out of it, that would explain the 100 amp system. No civilian agency would have gone through the azz ache of installing it. If the system has a low growl sound to it, it is working. Watch out for the selenium pile...
The transformer-rectifier charges the forward two batteries all by itself. Very slowly I might ad, at 15 amps or so. After starting the truck, the battery voltage will very slowly creep up to 13.8 or so, but will be greater than the voltage when the batteries are resting.
