books.google.com is your friend for most of the manuals. I just did a quick search and found these, but no LO. You can view them online or download them in PDF format. 9-2320-206-20 9-2320-206-34 9-2320-206-34P

First I added some sideboards to my M-817: http://www.thecoltons.org/m-817/20111117114.jpg then I hauled about 10 loads of fill from a construction site: http://www.thecoltons.org/m-817/20111125119.jpg

GSA Auctions, it was at the SD Federal Surplus Agency in Box Elder. (Just South of Ellsworth AFB.)

I posted a bunch of others in the 5-ton section when I first got it, but you can see all of them on my page: http://www.thecoltons.org/m-817 (Click the pics to see the huge originals.)

Not a deuce, but I picked up an M-817 a couple of weeks ago to haul fill to help level out my back yard. I'm going to install a block heater this week so I can enjoy it in the winter months as well - should be fun going through snow drifts with it!

Great to know! I was very happy to see from the sheet that the only thing they found wrong was some paint issues and a couple of dripping leaks!

Last batch of tiny pics. M-817 Dump Truck - Colton Family Website

Seriously, these pics are tiny to get them under the size limits. Hopefully my Google Site page doesn't have a traffic or hit limit: M-817 Dump Truck - Colton Family Website Any idea what the connector is underneath the passenger seat? Also, I noticed that the Max Towed Load field is blank on...

I bought an M-817 from GSA without inspecting it and after reading about the poor conditions of some trucks from GSA and GL I got really nervous about my acquisition. Thankfully I lucked out - my co-worker and I drove down to Box Elder, SD in the wife's van and I was able to drive the truck...

How do you find all the publications relating to a certain vehicle on the MIL TM site? For example, I'd be looking for every scrap of information on the M-817 (Operations, maintenance, overhauling, etc.)
