    Body tub numbers

    Just curious, with all the R1's and new models out there now, I wonder how many of these tubs are being reused and if there was any correlation to tub numbers and any order when rebuilding or if they just pointed at yard with a wrecker and said go get me one. Might be fun to track just tub...

    Removing from a M1097A2 because a SECM wont fit in the rails by .5" You get the rails, the tailgate extensions, the longer tailgate chains, the power cable adapter (not panel with tcm cb and relay mounted to) Prefer pickup in Guymon, OK unless you arrange shipping. Love to put on green iron...

    Converting a S250 carrier M1097A2 into a SECM, didnt have the half doors that are needed with the maint bed, so next best thing is to engi-nerd your own. Only store bought items are the hinges and a 3/4" nut, the rest of the parts came off the truck. Grind off the rivets that hold the support...

    Tanker's from Hooks

    So does anyone have a guess where all these tankers are going out of Hooks? I have bid some of the cleaner ones to over 5K, and some of the not so cleaner one over 3, and they all have cancer like they have been salty air sitting. I just need 1.... or if being greedy, 2.

    Essex a698 first run

    So I got a Essex A698 a couple years ago, I have never used it as I have my ol faithful UMC that i love using. So today was the test day for the Essex, so pre use, pop the top and blow out the dust, and to my surprise there is no fan in the box. I ran 33KW for almost 1 hour and never noticed...

    AMi (M916 & M970) saved my parent house from a grass fire.

    I purchased/traded the M970 from M35A2-az and the M916 came from Ohio, specifically for water to fend off a fire until the real firemen can fight fire. Well today was the day she paid for herself. Last Monday, 19 Aug 19, I walked out on the porch before supper, happened to look to the North...

    M970 Trunnion flip for leveling purposes

    OK, its freezing time so AMi got drained to keep from freeze busting valves. Now is the time to do maintenance. Problem. Trailer runs uphill due to AMi being a M916 and not a M915 or M931, to the tune of about 13in difference front high. Attempted solution: 1600/20's, failed, tire is too...

    M916A0 (AMi) and spicer 1750 aux transmission

    So we went on another run earlier this week, only for a refill and just rough math in my head AMi gets about 4mpg at 55-58 mph. Also 55 is a bit slow going to a fire. She has no problems tanker yanking full to the top of water, so another .81 od behind an aux should get the top speed at 2100rpm...
