    Cummins cold start question.

    Pull your glow plug and check to be sure it did not burn out… That is what happened in my Dad’s M813A1. The 809 series trucks use a weird system with 6, 12, and 24 volts! :shock:

    Free CUCV Side Boards

    LWB Chevy beds are 8', so the side boards will be the same... I don't remember the dimensions on a 101 trailer.

    Free CUCV Side Boards

    M1008/M1028 CUCV Side Boards with Troop Seats - Free to a good home! They must be picked up in Marietta, GA. From what I remember the metal is in good shape. The wood that is there needs to be sanded and painted. Side board wood is complete and in good shape. Maybe eight or so of the small...

    Progress on the 5 Ton (Pics)

    derby, I would estimate the road speed to be about 60 MPH at 2100 RPM (max. for the engine). We haven't clocked it yet. The PTO installation involves bolting the PTO to the transmission then installing the shift linkage and drive shaft. It's not hard to do. It is possible to have both forward...

    Progress on the 5 Ton (Pics)

    M1075, When this truck was overhauled by the Marine Corps in 1991 they upgraded it with the ISO bed, locking differentials, and super singles. When my Dad purchased the truck from Ryan Gill, Ted's Trucks had put 11.00-20 NDCC duals on it. When I said "changing to the proper configuration of...

    Do you know....

    I have a friend in Arkansas that owns a deuce wrecker that came from the government with a multi-fuel engine. Were there ever any manufactured with a multi-fuel, or are all that are out there conversions?

    Changing back to the proper configuration of super singles and installing a winch is a full days work!

    can anyone identify these axles?

    CCKWs have 6 lugs, so that's not it. WW2 Dodges have 5 lugs, but that's not it either. G506 1 1/2 ton Chevrolet maybe?

    Be sure to remove the ground first when disconnecting the battery, too!

    Deuce Wrecker Engine Swap

    I may have misunderstood this, but is anything changing about the transfer case or PTO? I don't remember reading anything about it being changed. Also, that 1700 RPM was governed engine speed for a gas engine and the old transmission is 1:1 in fifth, right? Fifth gear was used when running the...

    Deuce Wrecker Engine Swap

    According to this web page, 5th in the 3053A is 0.85. http://www.garbee.net/~cabell/transmission.htm Take your desired output (1700) and multiply it by the overdrive (0.85) and you get the required engine RPM, 1445.

    Steel Soldiers and Desert Rat visit Howard's

    Actually, I have heard of some goats with Chevrolet small block V8s in them! It has a standard GM SM420 transmission, so getting them together would not be that much trouble. True, aluminum does not rust, but it turns into a white powder and blows away or falls off! That can be worse than...
