Our GMC CCKW 'Split' has a problem with the transfer case. I can go to third gear, speed about 10 mp/h, transfercase-gear will jump out every ten feet or so. Somebody told me because of the torque bars are having play so the rear axles were coming foreward which had caused a bearing inside the...
Sorry about the language, as of being Dutch, not excactly understanding every (technical) word what is written, unable to figur out where to find something what will tell me how to operate or fix the glowing system of a Chevy K30. We recently bought a M1008 straight from the USArmy in germany...
The starterrelais off my FV432 only says "click" when trying to start the verhicle. I think it needs a rebuild but I have no idea where the startermotor is located and how to get it out. is there someone who can tell me? The APC is in the Netherlands.
Hi again. We're busy with a CCKW Tipper and it has a closed cab and winch. Now somebody came by and said the closed cab never had a Tipper body in WW2; it should be constructed afterwards. is this right and where is the proof??
Hello there
We just got a CCKW Shop Van with a special body of which we cannot find any picture on the www or in any book. The Van has a rounded roof and it is not collapsible like the 'normal' Shop Van. It is higher than the 'normal' Van, higher doors. (it also is not the Swiss version of the...
Hello everyone. We're having a M925A2 with some transmission shifting trouble. When te cable at the pump is loose it seems to work perfect, just probably won't work when the truck is carrying a load. When the cable is attached it will shift from 1st to 2nd quite rough and eventually shift in 3rd...
Hello, I have a question about a 931. Will the differentials be interchangable from the 931 with 14.00 Super Singles and the 1100-20 dual wheels?. And is it possible to put 14.00 Super Singles on a 931 truck which is originally equiped with the 11.00 dual wheel setup?
Greetings from Holland...

Where did all the Vietnam vehicles go? Did they stay in Vietnam or were they shipped back to the USA or Europe?
A friend of mine bought recently en few M52A2s and a M51A2 and a M54A2; they were sold by DRMO/DRMS in Germany about 10 to 15 years ago, all are overhauled in Bublingen, Germany in...
Hello
A friend of mine just bought a nice looking M51A2 tipper. We live in the Netherlands and it seems to be a problem when the truck is newer than 1966 in order to get it streetlegal licensed. Can anybody tell me how to figure out the chassisnumer or the hoodnumber? Chassis: 5123-12496...
My M36A2 had starting trouble before and I replaced the distrubiting(?) pump. (not the one in the tank). Several months ago I used it for the last time when I noticed that the fuel line off the fifth cylinder was broken so fuel all over the engine. I replaced the line but now, after sitting for...

Hi again.
My Duece M36A2 has a new problem. When at cruising speed (any speed cruising) there is this sound what comes out of the exhaustpipe like there is a Huey helicopter flying just above the truck. The idea of barking. Every bark there comes a puff of blueish-black smoke out of the pipe...
I don't know the M number of my truck. Perhaps anyone of you do? I have this 1982 GMC K3500 ambulance, It's part time 4x4, dually rear wheels, front and rear AC, PS, it did have a PTO whinch but the previous owner took it off. It came from the USAir Force in Europe. 350 V8 gas engine converted...
Hi there
I am not sure if my alternator is working or not. I have the idea that the engine hesistates a little when starting up. It used to start on the button. The guage of the alternator is not in the green part anymore but in yellow. I can't adjust it. How do I test if it is working. What...
Hi, I am looking for technical info or a TM for a Allis-Chalmers High-Speed Tractor, 18 ton, M4, powered with its original Waukesha 817cid engine.
And a TM about the White Halftrack would be nice too.
First, WHY do some Vietnam truck have the yellow paint on the front part of the hood?
What is the color code of the Nam green? Is that the original Olive Drab or what is it called/numbers.
The paint of my truck is coming off so it needs a new paintjob desperately. I am thinking of painting it in...
