I used one of these trucks for years for farm grain hauling, pulling a 30 foot trailer, and plowing snow with no transmission problems. When I first got the truck a friend of mine who worked on these in the military that had a transmission shop told me to get the engine oil out of the...

I am mounting a hydraulic drive 900 series 20,000 pound winch to my tractor for use in the woods. I would like to know if anyone has information about the maker and model number of the drive motor. I want to know how much hydraulic pressure it is capable of handling. I have the information that...

I am repairing an M62 that has the swing mechanism damaged. The cause was water getting down into the gears, destroying the Timken bearings on the swing idler gear and the swing cam driven pinion gear. The result of the destroyed bearings was some of the bearing rollers from the idler gear...

Included are photos of a White farm tractor that has the same basic engine in it as the deuce and 5 ton motors. In fact, ordnance numbers will be found on many parts in the engine when torn down. This is the kind of work these engines are doing for long hours each day at high load levels all day...

Attached are photos of the "coyote condo" my son and I built to hunt the wiley coyote. We are setting it on a frame on a M139 bridge truck. The condo is 6' x 7', has four windows for observation and shooting, has insulated walls and ceiling, and a trap door in the bottom for access from the M139...

I had a problem with my M51A2 with the brake pedal being hard, right at the top after a few brake applications. The brakes were dragging, building heat in the drums. I had replaced a stuck master cylinder with one that seemed good off a parts truck. I had disassembled it and cleaned it before...

Does anyone have a good M715 tailgate and hinges they can sell me? I am located in northern Indiana. Thanks Marti Sacks

We have spent several weeks at getting this dump truck assembled from parts and running. The pictures show the dump truck and a donor truck beside it with my home-made tow bar on it. The dump truck was bought about seven years ago, missing the engine, transmission, and front grille, radiator...

I am posting pictures of the welder after we painted it and added a fuel tank. I have also included a close-up of the connector and drive adapter. It works very well, having plenty of power. It is much smoother and quicker on the governor than the Wisconsin VF-4 we had on it before! Regards...

I bought a 4A032 engine to drive my DC welder. Several years ago I had put a Wisconsin VF4 on it, but it developed a rod bearing problem so I replaced it. It also did not develop high enough RPM to make the welder reach potential. The 4A032 works really well on it. I made the exhaust pipes and...

Here are some pictures one of our deuces, implement trailer, and Massey Ferguson 1100 tractor after returning from a modified tractor pull. We just got this truck this March from Stout Field from GL. After using an M135 GMC for years on implement trailers, an M35 is a real power treat to drive...

I see there is a transmission lifting winch for sale on Ebay. It is listed as "Transmission Winch" item number 190185166381. I have one of these and want to say they are a real help when changing a clutch, motor, or transmission. They set on the cab floor with the transmission cover removed...

We had a leak around the shaft on the end of the hydraulic drive motor on the hoist drum of our M543A2. I saw someone was asking a while ago about repairing these. We took the motor off the hoist winch worm drive and disassembled the it by taking the tie bolts out of the case. We found there is...

For anyone interested, there is another of the geared lug nut wrenches for sale on eBay. Item number is 300087460587, ends March 8. I have found these wrenches to work very well. Regards Marti

I have purchased an M105A3 trailer on Govliquidation. The serial number made me wonder what it might mean. It is NWOX1Q. On some other military items, an X meant it was a one off or other experimental thing. Is that the case here? The trailer has the markings HS-T141 and a mushroom cloud...

I put a South Wind 939J24 multifuel engine heater on my M543A2. I think it is a really good addition. It heats the engine nicely. I considered using an electric tank type heater, but if the truck is away from a power supply, it cannot be used. I leave the heater on when using the truck for short...

Has anyone tried adding LP injection to these engines? My son and I intend to on his M35A2 after we did it on my Dodge Cummins just ahead of the turbo. We have the regulator set up to selectively trip two stages with push buttons on the stick. Leaves black marks when we hit it rolling in second...
