I'm having trouble finding the rubber air hose that runs from the cab firewall tubing to the frame tubing on my M211. This for the pressure line that comes off of the junction block on the firewall. When you remove the floor pan, this hose is under the right upper corner. Local hose /...

Does anyone manufacture an adapter to go from civilian trailer wiring plugs to the military "M" series plug?

Who sells individual steel brake lines for the M37? I only need the ones on the front axle.

Thanks for the info! My local mom & pop hardware store sells the correct rope by the foot. I didn't want to come up short.

As of last weekend I still had not found the float setting so I adjusted the float top parallel with the bowl top. Even the Holley manual for the 885 series just mentions to set the float using the gauge. The picture in the manual shows what looks like the typical cardboard gauge. There is no...

You can check a U-Joint with a screwdriver. Pry against the flanges and bearing caps. If you see movement in the joint, it's bad. If they are really bad you will see movement just by moving the shaft up and down by hand. Also, when removing the driveshaft it helps if you put the rear of the...

What is the carb float setting on the Holley 885FFG carb used on the G749's? I can't find my carb manual at the moment. Thanks, Jim

Memphis was out of them along with the muffler.

Does anyone have a M211 muffler mounting strap for sale or know where I could get one? Mine just broke while installing a new muffler. Thanks, Jim

If this gasket expands proportionately I'll have a problem. I need to increase the height, not width. If the width expands it will not fit into the grove around the perimeter of the air horn.

One kit is NOS, one is newer manufacture. I used the newer manufacture kit however, the cork gasket in both kits is identical. If water or diesel fuel will expand it now, will it contract in the future leaving me with a vacuum leak?

I've just rebuilt my M211 carb and have a problem seating the top air horn tight to the throttle body. With the cork gasket in the grove on the air horn, I've got a gap between the gasket and the mating surface on the throttle body. It seams that the air horn is pivoting on the main body to...

The trans can be removed by itself although you need a very heavy trans jack. When I first bought my M211 the trans died. Took the truck to a heavy truck repair shop to get a rebuilt trans installed that I had bought from Memphis Equip. They put the truck on a lift and used a trans jack. Not...
