    M1031 Contact Maintenance Truck.

    Be aware that the late M1031's with the PTO driven generator does not have a welder built into the generator, you still have to have a "buzz box" in the truck.

    Recovering Sarge's SPGRSMD

    Yes, please post pics of the batwings raised and the machine shop all set up. What a great story and photo essay! Thanks for taking the time, I know how sometimes you can forget to take pics in the middle of the action . . .

    Keco A/C's today- a bargain?

    Anybody end up with one of these Keco 1.5 ton A/C units from Tobyhanna today? For $200 before shipping for 4 units that appear to be new, I couldn't resist. But it looks like only 5 or so out of 200+ sold. I know they are 3 phase, but are these things some kind of lemon the gov't dumped...

    Red-Line "RPM" Confusion

    Back when I was young and stupid I would drive the local civil defense M-37 against the governor at 52 mph all day, that is until it would vapor lock and leave me on the side of the road for 10 minutes.

    tranny question

    If the 727 trans is slipping in rev, mine does that too after sitting for months, it will work itself out, make sure the trans is topped off.

    Did you check the front glad hand cover for the vent hole????????????

    what is the value of a 1031 maintenance truck ?

    I think that truck is easily worth $5000, what with the 12kW generator and aluminum lightweight bed. I would not take one penny less for mine.

    Ft Bliss Recovery and MV Finds

    Love your stories. Amazes me all the support you get from the installations. Looks like I will be heading your way soon, I won the Ft Sam lot today with the windshield, hard top, troop seats and pickup topper. Where was the circus wagon? That is WWII.

    My new M936A2 project (update)

    That wouldn't be that weird thing where if you do not have a vent installed on the glad hands on the front of the truck the brakes lock like you are talking about? There are threads here about that on the 800 series.

    What are these?

    I just spent $200 having new wood made for mine. Shipping would be expensive, so bring them to a MV rally and they will sell.

    I am back too.

    GSAauctions.gov There are always 5 of them for sale, but they are all fire dept turn in's and they are not too nice most of the time. None come up on GL anymore, except for the very rare occasion.

    San Antonio Recovery

    Amazing! Just goes to show you how much life is still in these 30 and 40 year old trucks.

    The now M931A1 becomes a 932A1 and gets in the action

    Looking good. The 5 ton tandem is rated at 44,000, but the super singles are only 9000 ea. I think a 931A0 with dual commercial tires could move the weight without fear of blowouts, and having a 'gator come in the cab with you through the soft top. That would hurt.

    what a mess

    If the truck had hit hard enough to break off the front axle, the tires would be flat and the rims bent. This is a case of some mechanic taking things apart and not finishing the job. Do a forum search for "Unimog", I have read that the core SEE truck is the same as a standard Unimog...

    Hotshot Transportation Co. - looking for loads

    Thanks Eric, please advise what regions of the US you serve. Also, do you carry ramps for your step deck, so trucks can be driven aboard.

    pick up by contracted hauler

    If GL isn't there, make sure somone will load the truck, or make sure the trucking company understands they have to load. If the DRMO says they will not load, then you may be stuck sending a rollback with winch so the driver can self load. Don't send a RGN trailer and expect the truck...

    what a mess

    Did you but that in PR and have it shipped to FLA? If so what does that freight run?

    XM757 ??? Identify

    The GOERS at Sammy's have light demil cuts, but are complete. They have been sitting there for at least 20 years now, and are getting really rusty.
