I have never seen a 11.00-20 NDT, only NDCC. 9.00-20's came in NDT during WWII.

Most of the parts are standard over the road truck parts, but there are some exceptions, such as the fan clutch. I have had good luck sourcing through my local heavy duty truck parts house. Items like fenders or body parts will have to come from a surplus yard that is parting out one of the...

My M871 made by Southwest does not have a removable bulkhead.

GL sold a 915Aa1 out of Vandenburg CA a few months ago with the air ride. Super clean. As much as I love the Hendrickson tandem, my body does not. Air ride would be a dream setup.

I had my truck shipped from Wright Pat to Houston, and that was the smartest $1000 I ever spent.

What is this Reo 400 you mention? Is this some kind of bigger inline 6 than the usual Gold Comet 331?

That's what happens when someone puts a Sumitomo tire on a US military truck. Your 915 has probably been trying to pop that one for a long time.

I'm sure most of you have struggled with beating a tire off a split rim that has not been disassembled since the Vietnam war. If the tire is no good anyway, here is a 10 minute dismount method that does not involve the duckbill hammer. Picture 1: 9.00-16 from a M-37, been assembled for 40...

Nice. What's up with the shorty troop racks, are those cut down or?

Looks like a 1952 M211. First I have ever seen with the arctic personnel heater kit somewhat installed. Parts are not too hard to find, just call around.

They are what you suspect, early design locking hubs for the M211, M135 (G749) trucks. They will not fit anything else. New ones were around $450 /pr when they were available, not sure if they are anymore. Welcome to the site.

There is a conversion harness that connects the 60A alternator to the 4 pin cannon plug that plugs into the 25A regulator. I think TJ Murray has them. I did that on my '66 M275A2.

Mine came from one of the bases in San Antonio, TX. 69K1626 was on the doors.

Good thing no Commercial Vehicle Enforcement officers were paying attention. Wouldda run out of tickets.

Was your M1031 originally a PTO generator or was it the gas engine generator? I will possibly be parting out a PTO generator setup, I will know in 2 weeks.

To answer your original question, the 880 series runs 9.50R-16.5's stock. These are available in a Goodyear Workhorse tire for around $100 ea.

I would order a 4 gallon case to start with. You might need more. The hard top is a scarce item, you almost never see wartime pics with a truck with the arctic enclosure.

Looks saveable. Could have been an Air Force truck, see the "airdrome signals" decal on the dash. Got a hard to find civy distributor in it, also the cool hang down air cleaner mod. Looks like some rust is getting a foothold on the front sheetmetal.

Your state has no form of antique or former military registration classes?
