OMG this is a stunning vehicle, FINALLY something good looking after these silly looking designs from Oshkosh and the ITV. Put me down for the first one out from GovP.

Loosen the screws on the inner hinge leaves and see if you can push the windshield until the rails fit.

Well you are in luck, the Goat TMs are available on this site, go to forums/technical manuals/Korean to Viet Nam era vehicles. I have never separated the tractor from the trailer, wouldn't think this is a good idea, but the truck is set up to come apart there. You have to reconnect the yaw...

Put me down for one. Have the fabricator omit the weld joining the right and left halves so it's UPSable.

Wow your 1083 looks way too nice to part out. Why don't you just put it in the for sale section?

The file for the M109A3s is attached in post 63.

See post 63 above

Open the wheel valves and clean the seating surface and check for crud. Bubble test the hose and stem with Mr Bubble and a paint brush.

Welcome Joe. The air entrainment can happen due to very un obvious sources. Usually return hoses that you would think would leak but don’t. Other sources are slave piston seals. I don’t know which Caiman you have, there is the MTV chassis version and the Caiman 2 with independent...

Well in that case that is fixable. Remove the dashboard and remove all rust, get a piece of angle iron to back it from underneath, attach it with rivets, epoxy, screws, welding. Prime with cold galvanizing paint, then topcoat.

Is that the tip of the iceberg, meaning how are the sills under the doors? If those and the rear cab panel area are all rusted out then yes, swap cabs.

The OA331 can handle 3400 rpms, back in the day, you have to know the GIs would run these all day with the throttle pulled all the way out.

If you are getting oil out the drain hole that is not black engine oil, make sure the transmission oil level is at least 1" below the fill hole. if it's overfilled then drain out and clean the clutch in situ using solvent such as brake cleaner.

No no no the gauge housing needs to be grounded in order for the gauge to work.

Runk is right, the gauges do not have bulbs inside, they are lit indirectly by the lights in the panel. Don't open the gauges. The wires going to the gauges are +24 volt power on one and the other goes to the sending unit.

It should go faster after the gear oil gets hot. Advance the timing some, check for dragging shoes.

Vintage Power Wagons has the 4.89s in stock. That is what you want.

HUH? there are thousands of sizes dozens of material and dozens of profiles and some rocket scientist at Morton Thiokol once picked the wrong one resulting in a national tragedy

The super short one at the left rear is not a ground!!! It is +24. if you put the batteries in there per the graphic, there is no way it will reach a ground post.

Not yet, bought the primer today though. Oh yes I will paint everything CARC tan soon. Bare aluminum not appropriate for an ARRRmy truck in my opinion.
