    G749 preservation

    I really hope that transmission holds up for you. One of those going out is what I dread the most.

    M211 crew cab crusade

    Oh man...this is going to be fun to watch!:popcorn: It is neat to see you guys working on this together. Not many people have an opportunity to do something like that.

    The unofficial g749 picture thread

    I'm glad you got those. I would have if they were closer to me. I want to add an M211 to the collection some day.

    Carburetor and Ethanol

    I bought some of these from a local carburetor shop. I have one in my truck now and it is working well. http://quadrajetparts.com/accelerator-pump-holley-2395-leather-p-1961.html I suppose I should add this to the parts list. Forgot to do that a while back.

    G749 Parts List

    Looks like they changed the part number on us. I'll remove the bad number, do some searching and put up a good one when we find it. Thank you for letting me know and helping me keep this up to date for all of us!!

    If those are M135 wheels, don't grind them. I'd trade you some M211 wheels for those. You'll know when you take them off. If they have the taper on both sides, they are for M211 or M35.

    Yes sir. It is a nylon bristle wheel.

    1952 M135 W/Winch

    I used a bench grinder with a nylon wheel on everything but the air canister. Used an angle grinder with a wire wheel on that.

    Would you post up some pictures if it and it's internals when you get a chance?

    Cleaning up airpak parts for the rebuild. This is the worst part for me. Things are going nicely though.

    I like the looks of those trucks. Looking forward to seeing what you do with it!

    1952 M135 W/Winch

    That is the line I was talking about. I missed that page in my search for a diagram of all those lines running all over. The hose that hooks to it is next in line to get a new one. I am also in the middle of replacing the upper and lower radiator hoses since they were still the old military ones.

    1952 M135 W/Winch

    I have come up with enough parts to make at least one good airpak. Everything needs cleaned up and then I'll start the rebuild. The parts I have scrounged appear to be pristine on the inside. All of the coolant and oil hoses for the air compressor have been replaced with new and little by...

    Looking real good! Did your master cylinder come in yet?

    What are you using to do the sanding?

    1952 M135 W/Winch

    I tore down a G749 airpak today so I can start preparing for a rebuild. It was not as difficult as I thought it would be. Hopefully I can find enough parts that are not pitted to make one good airpak. I still plan to tear down an M54/M809 airpak to find out the difference between the two. I...

    New Wheel Cylinder Issues

    As of last weekend, still no leaks. I decided to put a new master cylinder on and rebuild the airpak. We'll see how the wheels cylinders hold up after all that is done.

    Good looking truck! Ugly can be fixed easily. Everything looks straight from what I can see. You have a lot to work with there. What year is the truck and can you see what the hood number is?

    Oh man. That is terrible. What does FedEx have to say?
