    NHC 250 Valve adjustment problem

    I've read the sticky on this, and following that got 3 of the cylinders adjusted easily. My problem is when trying to adjust cylinder 3. I have the pulley in the correct spot, and know I'm on cylinder 3 to adjust, but the exhaust rocker has no play. I've taken the adjustment screw completely...

    Odd Air pack question

    I have an XM818 (or most of one), that I don't know what to do with, but have been tossing around some ideas in my melon. It's either come up with something or part it out. I know on these trucks the brakes work when flat towed, when hooked up to the towed trucks service line. Which proves...

    M342a2 on Singles

    I've been off the site for awhile, but have been working on my tipper trying to get it road worthy. I was able to get it driving well enough to get it out on the road some last fall. Hoping to get a few more things buttoned up so I can drive it the 250 miles from hunting camp to my house next...

    m105 tall cargo cover

    When I bought my m105's one of them had 2 covers and all the bows in the back. Once of th covers has a brown piece spliced in so it es extra tall, but I don't have the side racks/ tall enough to fit the cover. Was it pretty common to have an extra tall cover? How did they make the side...

    Cold weather starting

    My m35a2C is a pain to start in the cold. I mean even in the high 30's (which isn't that cold) it is a pain and I have to pull the throttle way out and liberally use the flame heater to get it to start. On the other hand my M342a2, in the same weather, I just reach in turn the key (someone...

    I'm going to replace all of teh wheel cylinders and hoses on my XM818. I have found the front wheel hoses, and rear frame to axle hoses, but can't find the front frame to axle hose. The TM gives in a different PN than the rears, at 7413492. Will the rear one work? Also, if anyone happens...

    Fuel Fired Heater

    Picked up a southwind 30k btu unit at Iola last weekend (pretty darn cheap too). It came w/ this weird mount. I'm wondering if anyone knows what the mount was for. I'm thinking maybe a van box or something. It has a slide door on one side, and a swinging door on the other side. I had a...

    M105 questions

    SO I started looking over my M105A2's, and noticed some things. One of the trailers has landing legs at all 4 corners. I'm wondering what the purpose for this was? It also looked to have some type of leftover foam sealant, kind of like 3M foam tape residue on parts of the inside of the...

    Bad starter?

    So I thought my control box was bad on my 818, and that is why it wasn't cranking. I did a little trouble shooting today, and the relay in PCB is working. I have 24V to the starter, and the ground seems fine. When the switch is turned to start I have 24v to the trigger wire on the starter...

    No start- Bad control box?

    Went to start my M818 this past weekend, and got nothing. I flipped the batt switch everything was as normal. Flipped the other switch to start and it wouldn't turn over. The batt gauge went into the yellow, but nothing still. I thought maybe batt's were really low, so I slaved over my M342...

    Trans stuck in Gear

    So I finally got my replacement trans in place in the 818 (not completely hooked up yet, but bolted in place) before I put it in the truck, the gear shifter moved freely, but while installing at some point it sort of froze up. Not sure what the deal is. Does anyone have an idea? Is there a TM...

    Barring over cummins

    I'm trying to torque my flywheel bolts (210 fl/lbs) and I'm having trouble keeping the engine from moving. What is the correct way to bar over the engine? I tried the bolt on the accessory pulley, but it doesn't work too well by yourself.

    Flat tow from Hell, m342a2 is home LONG

    Drove the M35a2 140 miles to the M342. All well except for all the air leaks negating the heater install. Got to the M342, swapped tires, ok. Time to start. Dead batteries, I've got the slave cable, hook it up and nothing. Hmm, Well just push start it. Get back to the M35 and all power is...

    Need heater help, maybe parts

    So I broke down and bought the winterization kit from Saturn. Very nice stuff, although I expected that for the price. So I went to go and figure out how to mount the main heater, and it seems this deuce has no inner fender :( My other one does, and the heater is mounted on it. Does anyone...
