264Charlie's M51A2

[264charlie]

Hi all, I just picked up an unseen M51A2 from an auction site. It was a bit of an impulse purchase that resulted in about 50 hours of research, during which I'm much more educated about what I bought. I purchased the truck to move about 250 yards of dirt around my property. It should be a fun journey.

Welcome and that is a sweet dump! Hope it serves you well.

I recognize the truck and background. Haul it home. Do yourself a favor and PMCS it before it ever hits the road.

100%. I suspect I'll have a few long weekends before it moves much. I'll post everything that needs attention and the process of getting it running.

Welcome to the site, nice looking truck and listen to Fuzzy.

Does anyone have a recommendation for axles and brake rebuilt kit vendors? Or are the big ones that pop up on Google the best route to take?

Highly recommend Memphis Equipment for parts support for this platform.
