    Won a M977 HEMTT in Ft. Drum

    I have brand new exhaust manifolds and all of the exhaust pipes from them to the turbo including the y pipe. I have a used turbo too. (I am using the new one on the HEMTT) I also have new turbo oil feed and return lines, the turbo adapter that bolts to the blower. If you are interested in...

    Are you in need of anything specific? I'm not 100% sure the new engine was from an MK48. I am basing that on pictures I have seen of MK48's. Unfortunately things have been going so fast I haven't had a chance to take many pictures. I am hoping to have it running in a week or 2.

    Won a M977 HEMTT in Ft. Drum

    The process was very simple. At first I thought I was out of luck but then I remembered the used oil analysis as it was the only reason I even considered bidding on a non-running vehicle. I called them up and told them what the deal was and they sent me all of the paperwork to start the dispute...

    Won a M977 HEMTT in Ft. Drum

    It turned out to be a bigger project than I had hoped. I do plan to drive it on the road when I get it running. After I got it running I found it had water/glycol (antifreeze) in the oil. Lots of water, like 15 gallons. Since the used oil analysis GP did said water/glycol in the oil were...

    Won a M977 HEMTT in Ft. Drum

    The HEMTT finally came home today after 2 months waiting for the EUC. It was missing the fuel pump and all of the fittings and bolts but I was able to source one locally and get everything else I needed. After getting it installed, which was not as simple as it first looked, we pressurized...

    Here are some pics. They are from GovPlent as I'm still waiting on the EUC to clear. Can't to play with the crane. Anyone else have one that can give me any tips or known issues to look out for?

    I posted a pic in the Auction wins 4/15 thread. I'll try to post some later. It requites an EUC so it may be awhile before I am able to get it. I was going to try and call to see if they will let me go up and try to get it running in the meantime. I doubt it but its worth a shot.

    Won a M977 HEMTT in Ft. Drum

    Anyone know if they will assist in loading? Its says in the auction that the truck could not be started. Will they let me try and get it running? I really wasn't expecting to win it. Never expected it to go so cheap. As long as there is no major issues with the engine/drivetrain I think I did...
