I have seen this truck at veterans parades and the New Orleans Air show.
This truck looked very average in condition but it was special as it is a former forward air controller with the amtech hard top. Whats makes it special is that is has the extra small door for a slide out antenna base. They...
Got to tell ya that cracks me up. BTW, we all don't speak like that down yonder......
Always wondered why they don't do that for example with Northern Law Maine or New Hampshire :) Now, that is some thick accents ;-)
I have seen a local painted black air national guard recruiter eye candy for shows & exhibits etc.. Very few are painted black and the one I saw was rather sloppy.
It is normal for diesels to get black quickly. Even new oil will darken much faster than maybe what you are used to in a gas engine. Many diesel oils start off darker anyway because of the additive package.
I believe you probably had residue still left as impossible to drain fully.

That simple support is stupid crazy priced and hard to find so that is a big plus.
I have no personal experience but have seen others post about shortening the lower pipe and rewelding it.
$425 for a complete kit is very very reasonable...
Shipping of $100 is also very reasonable.

Who sells Nye products retail?
It appears Moog is OE equipment but does not release the proprietary parts to the aftermarket and has to be sourced through AMG or one of its distributiors or surplus.
I was fortunate to have friendly contacts with multiple scrappers out of Camp Shelby in Hattiesburg when all the M939 trucks were flooding out. Primarily Wreckers and tractors. Some Cargos but it seemed all the cargos were in Kansas. One particular scrapper in Purvis was scrapping all the...
Not that I have done it myself, but saw many being scrapped. It seems like pulling the bed and crane as a unit is what I have seen done. Not sure how that influences the rear winch you re trying to repurpose.
Is that white sealant for threaded fittings or silicone gooped to watertite?
If just pipe sealant tape or putty, It should just unscrew with no force as it is not a thread lock product but just a thread sealer.
