New guy here,
Love this site. I am the proud owner of a 5 ton 6x6 dump. I got it for the EMA in town, I am the Asst Director. The truck serial # is 05B80368952315389. It is built by Kaiser. Is there a site where I can trace the number to get info on this truck? I got it from another town where they have no info at all.
It runs and drives. I am going to take the dump body and pistons out of it to make a flat bed for moving pumps, hoses ,supplies and whatever else I need to move. Anyone need a dump body?

Welcome to the site. We have several fire/EMT guys whose departments use these trucks. Amazing how many uses these trucks have ended up having after their time in the service.

Now let's see some pics of it!!!!!

There is no website to try and find the vehicle history. After 18 May you can pm me the nsn and serial number and I'll try to trace it.

Welcome and congrats. Dunno exactly what you are looking for but the truck is a 1968 Kaiser Jeep. Can you post up some pics of it. Did you get this through FEPP?

I will post some pic's tonight. I got it through a transfer from one city EMA to my town Miilbury EMA. IMy plan is to take off the dump body and convert to flat bed. But I need frame extension's for the winch. It was taken off and they found it for me this week. It needs glass in dr side door and windscreen.And drive shafts for front axle and rear most axle.
