    M1078A1 won't crank, no power to cab

    I got called in to try to help a small local volunteer fire dept get their recently acquired M1078A1 working. Seems someone replaced the batteries but had the two inner batteries placed in reversed, so power cables were hooked up all wrong. Got that fixed. Now have proper voltages from master...

    M818 Tractor Registration Number Location

    I am buying a M818 Tractor. I plan on registering it in Texas as a Former Military Vehicle with the option to use the registration number in lieu of license plates. I have put registration numbers on many other vehicles, but the M818 is throwing me off a little bit due to the location of the...

    Half Track transmission front drive shaft seal and spacer

    I am needing to replace the transmission front drive shaft seal on my M3 Half Track. The seal that is in it has AT 1805X128 stamped on it. It is a leather seal, so I assume it is a Chicago Rawhide seal, for which I can not find any info on. i found postings on halftrackinfo.com that says a...

    Source for M920 Parking Brake Valve

    The parking brake valve (valve on dash with knob that turn on or releases tractor air brakes) on my M920 is leaking. Leak seem to be coming from valve and not the lines and fittings. Parts manual shows part number 1073 NSN 2530-01-082-7161. Valve is same as on M915, M916 & M918. As search...

    M35A2 winch brake adjusting parts??

    The winch on an M35A2 I acquired kept braking the shear pin and the clutch arm wouldn't move. Found rust build up on worm gear keeping it from turning, which I should be able to resolve. Clutch parts were rusted to shaft. A can of PB Blaster over several days and slide hammer puller solved...

    MEP002a & MEP017A battery charger voltage regulator compatability

    The battery charger voltage regulator is bad on my MEP002A. I have an MEP017A I have no use for and was wondering if other than form factor if the MEP017A VR could be used in the MEP002A.

    M915 air conditioner question similar to Humvee

    I just got one of the new Red Dot air conditioners (RD-2-4530-0) for my M920. Instructions with it were for an M915, for which I had to do a few mods to make it work, but I got it installed and charged up. The problem is the high side pressure was running to high, but cooling. I let out some...

    M3 Halftrack rear door latch mounting hole dimensions??

    The rear door on my M3 Halftrack is not original. It was fabed up by one of the previous owners. They welded a Sea container latch on it. I bought one of the correct latches that is being sold on ebay. Can anyone tell me what the latch dimensions/spacing are for the screw mounting holes?

    M920 Oil Pressure sending unit PN source

    The oil pressure on my 920 gauge has been reading about 20-22 lbs, which would be to low. Today I hooked up a non electrical gauge and it read 35-40lbs, which should be about right. So in true shot gunning troubleshooting form, I have decided to replace the pressure sending unit, since I...

    DUKW Pillow Block and rear differential pinion seals

    Does anyone have any part numbers on new stock seals for the DUKW pillow block (Banjo)? I also understand that there is a timken seal that goes in the rear differential pinion (where PTO attaches) where they are thin enough that you can put two of them in. They should be the same as a CCKW...

    CAT 7155 transmission shifter lights

    At night, I could never make out the CAT 7155 transmission shifter gear numbers on my M920. They are lit up by four bulbs. I found that when the light switch was adjusted for maximum dash panel light brightness, the most I got out of the four shifter bulbs as a dim orange glow. The highest...

    DUKW front axle outer seal spacer?

    When taking the front axle outer seals out of my DUKW I found a washer/spacer behind it. I can't find anything about it in any of the manuals. They were on both sides. Someone said that they may have been a mod someone did because the axles were grooved where the seal had been riding on it...

    M936A2 rear winch control valve

    The rear winch control valve spool shaft on my M936A2 is rusted and pitted beyond repair. Does anyone know if any of the M936s that were just auctioned off are being parted out? I am assuming they use the same control valve (11669330 CAT233), but I am not sure. The 936A2 valve is mounted on...

    Halftrack idler wheel flange repair

    Does anyone have the correct dimensions for a halftrack idler wheel flange. Mine are wearing out. I understand good replacements are hard find and that my best bet is to try and weld some aditional material to the inside. Looks like this had already been done once on the ones I have. My main...
