    Retry- Questions about M915A1

    M915A1 is Big Cam III Cummins, 400 hp. No lockers in the Eaton rears. Already has extra air tanks and dual air system. Parts are at your local heavy duty truck supplier (Napa, et al). Will pull the crap outta civi and mil trailers. Seems to be reasonably reliable. Do a forum search for...

    Good Deal or Not

    Yeah, sure . . . Pass on this truck! Deep pitting RUST everywhere. That is the radioactive speedometer btw, see how the numbers are yellowed.

    Information on M915

    My M915A1 was listed as "running" when sold by GL at WP. When the transport truck arrived here in Texas, the big General would hardly roll. The rear brake camshafts were nearly frozen. The fan belts were showing strings, the wipers quit after a few minutes in the rain. It would not have...

    Information on M915

    Do a quick forum search for "M915" and you will find all the Steel Soldiers member's experiences with these trucks so far. I'm ok with the 58 mph top speed in a 28 year old truck. Seems plenty fast. Most of the common service items are commercial off the shelf (cots), but there are some...

    WWII Internationals

    The Internationals were not called CCKW, that is a General Motors model code. The WWII tactical Intl's came in 1/2 ton 4x4 (M-1-4), 1 ton 4x4 (M-2-4), 1 1/2 ton 4x4 (M-3-4), and 2 1/2 ton 6x6 (M-5-6). I think the M-1-4's and the M-5-6's are the most common. They are found on the west coast...

    M871 trailer USA number question??

    I am trying to figure out what the USA Registration number is on my newly aquired M871 flatbed. I am used to seeing 5 or 6 digit numbers like NG1234. I used the number on the main data plate as the VIN, it is NXOECC3009. Was this really the USA number? I want to use the correct USA number...

    Late Model USAF Contract M35A2C Spotters Guide

    I would say the "brake" warning light between the speedo and tach is the dead giveaway.

    (Back to!) converting to a tractor!

    You are being way to hard on yourself! Remember this is just a truck. These projects can sit for years and then you can get back to them. Not like a living thing etc. Deuce tractors are really no big deal to build up. The hard part is drilling the holes for the 5th wheel in the frame if...

    1944 cckw slc.

    M35 bed on it, that subtracts HUGE value. Also if it needs tires, thats almost $3000 investment right there. Still seems to be a nice truck.

    Coil for a M135....

    Not the same as 715 at all. Same as gas deuce and gas 5 ton. Most dealers should have one.
