m764 Pole setter scrapped out

[OpieNoTool]

I know this should be in the classified adds and it is, but i figured since the m764 is so rare some of you would be interested. mods do what you want.

So i went to my local junk yard today, one i have been to a hundred times or more and i noticed they were crushing some junk in the old section, probaly since scrap is pretty high right know and no one realy goes down there. so i walked down to check it out and see if i could find anything i wanted befor it was to late. Sure enough an m764 cut off mid cab engine transmision and the front clip was gone but the back half was left, the guy running the crane sayed if i wanted any parts i had 2 hours and the rest was going into the crusher.
of course the batterys were dead in my camera so no pics. i did however get some cool parts though i dont need them. i thought some one else could. so heres what i got. see my ad in the classifieds for more info.

-Transfer case pto
-oil line
-Pto adapter
-shift leaver
-data plate
-drive shaft
-power divider
-drive chain
-hardware (bolts, nuts, washer, etc.)

For as rare as it is, it is a shame some one junked it. Sad day, in deed.

Good save on the rear winch drive chain and associated parts!

Found this old thread this morning while searching for power divider info since I picked up one of these at the NJ show last year. Turns out it's the same one. Glad this stuff was saved!

OpieNoTool obviously has tools in the right place at the right time.
I hope He got a bundle for his efforts to save irreplaceable parts.
That is many ATTTABOYS earned in just a few hours of hard work. Thanks


It took nine years to get to one that needed it, but Opie did it.
