Hopefully this helps people with part numbers.

As title states - how much do you think you could pull with a pintle hitch mounted to the front bumper?

TM 4-48.06/TO 13C7-2-481 https://ufile.io/9wkrdtnn https://fastupload.io/7Rkubq9nieF9PA1/file https://uploadnow.io/f/jd0dQCC Edit: Fixed first link and added one more.

Gonna be used as a 'daily', however mostly dispersed camping (tiny home on wheels). I expect to camp somewhere for a week or two then drive 100-300 miles and repeat the process. Could be as little as 20 miles or as far as 2K miles... just whatever suits my fancy. I just want to clarify this is...

Or is it a 9mm vs .45 situation?:cool: Got the 10wt camp that says 'look at the LO' Got the 15w40 camp that says 'Whatever works' Got the Dex3 camp that says 'It's the best choice for the price' Got the Transynd camp saying 'This is what Allison says to use' 10wt camp says 'it's mil spec'...

Seems like there are 2 prevalent models. A 75A and 140A. Anything higher than that?

Heard in cab. Have not tried the tube method to narrow down where the sound is coming from though I probably should. Seems most present at idle, and under load at RPM. Above idle in Neutral it almost disappears. https://youtube.com/shorts/1CrzsTXPDNA Other vehicles I've had with that noise...

The cost difference is negligible to me. 1. Can I run 75W90 instead of 80W90 in TC and diffs? 2. Will I see any benefit using a synthetic instead of dino? My experience with passenger vehicle diffs is a LOT different than heavy machinery... The 8.8 in my fords can take 75w90, 80w90, all the...

So, picked up my truck at auction... Got a good deal knowing it was a gamble... and .... here.... we... go...! So, couple small issues. Air leaks down pretty quick. I will have to put shop air on it and spray all fittings with soapy water. Pretty easy way to diagnose. Also sounds like there...

My intent is to live full time in a box... :D I had an M934, but realized the box was a waste as to design around the folding out sides was dumb. So I sold it. Here I am a couple years later and my how prices have changed. $4500 for a 5 ton? HA! They're 3x that now, easily. I ended up...

To me, it looks a little too dark to be just old/dirty coolant, and the small drops seem oily.... Thoughts?

How much can the trailer flex and still maintain connection? Maximum angle of attack? That kind of stuff. Looking through the TMs and not finding much on the 931. I'm debating on a M923 with a 14' van body in lieu of the bed, vs an M931 with something like an M129 or M146.

Just a friendly reminder to keep yourself safe and know the limitations and maintenance requirements of your equipment. Test your generators, know deep water fording techniques, know the maintenance required when water goes over the axles, check your vent tubing, etc..

I guess I'm answering my own question but, it seems like I can find M35s every day and twice on Tuesday, but searching major sites like Facebook and Craigslist found me ONE for sale in the entire country. Were not as many manufactured and/or surplused?

As usual, I tend to overthink things... Realistically, in my opinion, with modern greases, any grease I choose should be better than what was around when the deuce was manufactured, but that's not always the case.... So, I'm looking at bearing grease.... and the options are endless.. Lithium...

Found this while trying to find lockers and other rockwell axle parts. https://diy4x.com/product.php?productid=17698 So, how would you get the fluid pressure needed? Is this a viable solution for a parking brake or even possibly as an 'oh #%(&' brake? I figure anything is better than...

From what I'm seeing in the TM, it appears that the fuel line is 3/8.... Which is equivalent to about a AN-8 line. AN-6 would be 5/16 and AN-8 would be 7/16... Would there be any issue going to an AN-10 line, which is 1/2"? It would seem the increase in diameter would be relatively negligible...

Lots of us are used to working on our own stuff, but not all of us are wise in the ways of tools, shop equipment, tips/tricks, etc. Maintenance is a huge part of the hobby, heh, and I think a section where we can talk about what tools we use, or answer questions that others have about the best...

OK, so, not sure if you noticed, but on quite a bit of equipment, including the deuces and 5 tons with beds and comm/electrical boxes, there's a strip of wood, usually ~1/2-3/4" thick, that is put between the frame rail, and the frame of the box/bed. I've been told a couple things, maybe some...
