American General Products was just a few years. I want to write sometime 1968 to sometime in 1970. Then it became AM General. My 1971 is an AM General.
Welcome to the fun.
The data plate from the Injection pump you posted is for a 6.2 diesel engine. The 8 3 1 means 8 cylinder .31” plunger. A 6.5 diesel injection pump would have 833 in that section for a .33” plunger. I don’t know what engine you have but you have the injection pump for a...
Congratulations. I thought production ended in 1988. Your truck probably isn’t a 1997.
If it is a 1987 then it could have the dual circuit brakes if it was an Air Force truck. Looks like a fun project.
I just spent a few minutes looking through a -10 TM. I couldn’t find THE word. However, my experience has been engaging the front axle switch while moving works just fine.

The standardization of parts among all military vehicles was a result of lessons learned in WWII. The first M series vehicles such as the M35, M37 and M38 were in my opinion stop gap trials. All wiring the same, lights and switches along with alternators, distributors as much as possible, fuel...
I look at it the same as the push button light switch replacing the tried and true 3 lever switch. If you can’t make a large amount of money on it invent something that you can make a large amount of money on and get it on the appropriation list. Then make even more money when it has to be...
