    MI 1989 Freightliner Unimog FLU419 SEE

    Listing for sale one of the nicest Unimog FLU419 Small Emplacement Excavators (SEE) to ever reach market. This vehicle was fully rebuilt by RRAD in 2005 before being transferred to a Michigan municipality. It currently has 150 miles since rebuild. Starts, runs and stops excellent. Everything...

    Does anyone "float the gears" when shifting M39/M809?

    This has been a long debated topic, but I was always taught not to float synchronized transmissions which has been reinforced by every transmission rebuilder I've talked to. Sure you might save some clutch wear, but at the cost of premature syncro wear. Clutches are cheaper than transmissions...

    M920 - manual tachometer needed

    If you are just trying to see what the RPM is for testing purposes, you can use a regular M-series Tach like on your M818 or M35A2. The tach drive and cable should match up

    Bodywork - my 1009.

    AMD is the best in my experience. Used them on my M1009 and was quite happy.

    M200A1 - Commercial Generator Fit?

    I've seen a Miller Big 40 mounted on an M200A1 before. Looked like they either used existing holes in the trailer or drilled new ones. I guess it depends what size generator you are trying to mount

    MEP-012A 750KW Generator Manuals

    Apparently the -208 is the Army version and the -012 is the USAF version. Similar units but still some internal differences as well as the -208 being skid mounged and the -012 trailer mounted. If anyone has access to -012 manuals that woukd be extremely helpful.

    MEP-012A 750KW Generator Manuals

    https://radionerds.com/index.php/MEP-208 I checked the site section for the MEP-012A manuals already, but I may have missed them. All of the -208 manuals appear to be there. Still not quite sure the differences yet.

    MEP-012A 750KW Generator Manuals

    Thank you for the LO. I just looked up the MEP-208A and quickly glanced over the specs and they appear similar. I'll have to compare it to my units when I get back to the shop. I'm not sure what the differences are, or if its simply a redesignated MEP-012A? I do see the manuals for the MEP-208A...

    MEP-012A 750KW Generator Manuals

    Does anyone have any info or manuals for the MEP-012A 750KW Generator? These were largely used by the USAF and powered by a V12 Cummins 1710 CI. The only info I have found is a training video on youtube. Thanks

    Slave plug for MEP genset - cost effective options(?)

    I was going to ask how everyone was slaving generators over with external batteries and connecting battery connectors. Is electrical taping the terminals together enough? Or is removing the terminals, bolting the lugs together, and then covering in electrical tape preferred?
