    Truck uncontrollable after bump.

    My M51A2 runs good. Still has the old NDT tires and everything else looks stock. The dog bones look ok, no separation. When I first got the truck the truck would do the same thing, but I believe it was caused by tire pressure being low. I was traveling roughly 45 mph and hit a bump in the road...

    14.5 up front

    Picked up 3 14.5r20 XL from a guy. He said they wouldn't fit what he got them for. 2 of the 3 look good. One has a good amount of dry rot. Found a place that would work on split ring rims. Get there, that say they don't have the right tubes and the flap that came with the tire won't work. I...

    Mep002a?

    Mep002a trouble shooting My mep002a has been running without many issues at 1993hrs. Today I crank her up. Switch fuel on, sounds like a fuel pump might have took a dive. Not making the normal ticking noise, more of a zinging. Try and crank her. Everything as normal until I release the start...

    New to me M51A2

    Picked up a M51A2 from Kentucky Foresty, they said the local fire department has used it but it's been sitting for several years. Got it plus shipping around $3500. Doesn't look like it's missing many parts. Front driver side panel, winch driveshaft, and rear pintle. The exhaust is rusted out...

    Mep002a during Florence

    I live near Lumberton, NC. When Matthew hit we had a mep002a that ran but would not produce power. This time I was a little better prepared. I acquired another mep002a that ran from day one and produced power. When I went through the fluids I didn't realize it was missing the oil spring. I went...

    Mep-002a Help

    I recently bought a mep-002a in rough condition. Missing a couple of fuel lines and the voltage adjust switch. I was going to go through it just to make sure it's not worth saving first. I've pulled one fuel pump and clean it out. Was going to check to see if it worked. Hooked up two...
