For some reason those NSNs are not listed in TM11-7010-326-10. I was able to find all the cables using the typical "W1A" cable terms in searches along with "Blue Force Tracker" etc.
Those connectors are no fun to find. And expensive when you do. The schematic diagram that gives the pin out may be hard to find as well. Personally I would open the unit and bypass the connector. The connector will have two wires that lead to a contactor that in turn go to the compressor...
Well that is encouraging. On the cooling system, fill the reservoir and leave the cap off while running and look for bubbles. There could have been some trapped air on your first try that was escaping.
I see ?803 on your data plate, that is your vin. However lots of states used the motor number as the vin back in the day, and that would start with 302.
There are two stop switches so that if you apply the trailer brakes using the trolley bar ( brake control on steering column), the brake lights will come on.
Parts availability for one drivetrain no worse than the other. Hey if you buy that second truck, I have the cut off winch extension frame pieces you would need to fix that frame.
Splits are actually a better driveline than banjo. A group of us took these two split axle trucks on a D-day tour of Europe last year, some 4000 miles between the two, never missed a beat.
Use a tire hammer, 3 whacks and the ring pops off. Then flip over but use a wood block under the wheel such that the rubber is off the ground slightly. Then 3 more whacks and the tire will drop off.
I STRONGLY advise sending a commercial trucker to pick it up. I don't even recommend doing a flat tow with these. Find a local trucker with a Viking drive on trailer that they use for moving logging equipment and send him for it.
Maybe weld up the wrong holes. Not sure exactly what material the flywheel is made out of. But sure making a flywheel out of steel plate would work. The ring gear is shrunk on.
The 302 has 6 bolts holding the flywheel to the crank, the 270 has 4. The 302 flywheel for the hydramatic won’t work with a clutch. 302 manual transmission flywheels are impossible to find. The 270 water pump will bolt in place of the 302. The 302 does not have a front motor mount on the...
The instruments are electric and show random readings until you turn on the ignition. Caged brakes only mean no parking brake. But you will want to uncage them prior to the ferry ride.
The delineators are a Europe and I think Korea thing. They have been used there since the 70’s. That tailgate is used as a back porch when the truck carries a S280 shelter.
