    1952 M135 Fuel Pump diagnosis and rebuild

    You might call Memphis Equipment and see if they have new fuel filter screens if you can't get those cleaned up. They have more parts than they list on their website. Tell them the part number off this photo. Their phone number is on the bottom of the page. Here is a breakdown of the fuel...

    1952 M135 W/Winch

    My brother came to visit and welded my truck last week. We added some gussets for increased strength. Changed oil lines on the oil filter housing while doing an oil and filter change. Happened to find this head bolt tool on eBay in preparation for checking valves, etc. I'm still pulling...

    1952 M135 W/Winch

    I failed to take pics of the G506 and CCKWs. There was a total of four or five trucks and they were very rough. It would take all of them and you still wouldn't be able to make a complete truck. Unfortunately a person would about have to get them for free to make it worth the effort and cost of...

    1952 M135 W/Winch

    Two years later, another road trip and another update. 1944mb and I drove up to meet m1010plowboy in Canada and bought some parts from him that I needed for my M135. Also got some G749 engine stands to use for the engines in my parts trucks. After many years of talking with plowboy through PM...

    I have TB 9-2855-40 - Instructions For The Installation Of Personnel Heater Kit (Hot Water) (24V) It has parts list, pictures, etc. Do I need to try to figure out how to scan and upload a copy?

    M211/135 Wiring Harness Manufacturers??

    That's unfortunate. I will be needing a complete harness soon.

    CCKW/G506 data plates

    What would a telephone earth boring truck be worth if you could find one in decent shape? I was looking through some of my grandfather's WW2 pictures and look what I found at the bottom of this pic. I believe it was taken on Mactan Island, Philippines.

    G749 preservation

    I have lived in the country and had to move to the city when I left home at 18. Very much miss living away from town and if the opportunity presents itself, I will move out of town. Did the 40 mile each way commute for 5 years. It does get old, but you can adjust to it. Sometimes the drive is...

    Transmission fluid?

    Proper timing.

    This if you don't have the adapter. Works well!!

    1952 M135 W/Winch

    The garage dimensions are 25ft wide, 35 feet deep and the ceiling is 10.5 feet tall. The garage doors are each 10 wide and 9.5 tall. I'm not certain on the price of the doors since it was lumped in with the total cost of the garage. They are insulated since I am climate controlling. Lumber...

    1952 M135 W/Winch

    It's been a while since an update. Not a lot of progress on the M135, but I got tired of fighting weather and not having a good place to work on it. I decided to fix that and build a proper place to work on things. The garage/shop is built and I had it made big enough to get the M135's in. I'm...

    I'm planning to get up to Montana/Idaho later this summer to see Ben and Merle. Our southern border is wide open to anyone who wants in, but I think our northern border is still locked down. Not sure how we go about getting things across yet. I'll bring a passport incase things open up when I...
