I have not been able to find a correct intake hose at all either. I ended up using the Spectre flex hose. It has worked well with some slight modification. Too bad the filter did not do as advertised. Do you have a source for the headlight rubber isolator mounts? I can check my parts trucks...

Is that a Spectre filter on the top of your carburetor? Does the truck run different with it as opposed to the original oil bath? I had thought about doing the same thing for driving around and then hooking up the old original filter for display purposes.

Check out the pictures in post #628. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?52255-G749-preservation/page63 Does that look like what you need for your transmission?

That is very true. It would sure ease my mind a lot to know if we found the right kit. Where is stephenfeldmeier?? He was trying to get one rebuilt. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?138285-m211-transmission-rebuild-woes!

That is great news!! Do you mind telling what the master rebuild kit cost you? If we can narrow down what kit and bands we need, I'll add them to our parts list. Thanks Alan!

That is a great looking truck!

Looks like there are several of us wanting to learn how to rebuild these transmissions now. Too bad we all didn't live closer so we could gather on a weekend and start learning. Plowboy..does your transmission guy happen to know where we can find rebuild parts that are readily available?

How did we fail to tell him? Sorry bro. We'll try to warn the next guy since it is too late for you.

Well....where is it? Just going to leave us hanging like that? :razz:

I believe the markings are original. The truck was purchased out of Ft. Leonard Wood on July 17, 1972. I have the SF-97 that came with it. The previous\first owner after the truck came from the Army would not have changed them. He brought the truck home and there it sat until I bought it a few...

Hopefully that is an easy fix. The truck looks like it is in good shape. Do you plan on leaving it that color or are you going to go with a military style paint job?

I have been told that these are 5th Army markings. Not MP but may give you an idea.

Anyone find any new part numbers lately that are not on our list? http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?137722-G749-Parts-List

Can the old tubes that leak be patched or is that a no-no on truck tires? It is raining 11.00x20's at the moment. My brother just singled out his M818 and is giving me the tires that came off of it. Will be August before I pick them up. Looks like I have 14 Titan T Hawk 373's and 3 Coopers.

OkieM1008morrison and I did some trading and I ended up with 7 really nice 11.00X20's that are near new. I am thinking about taking a set of wheels off of one of my parts trucks, cleaning them all up and putting these tires on. Does anyone know of a good source for liners and tubes?

Looks great! Need more pictures when you get a chance!!!

I have two nice spare tire carriers that I don't need. If only we were closer.... I looked on your YouTube channel and don't see but the one video uploaded. No heater video. Maybe that is your problem?

I really wish I could have made it, but work schedule did not allow. Please post up pictures when you guys have time.

Sure looks like a rifle holder to me! That is neat! Looking forward to more pictures of the heater and everything else you are working on. Here is your YouTube video over here so you can focus on more new stuff. Subscribed! :popcorn: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d_yEVAziBlw

I used the cheapo brand since there was no Hy-tran locally available at the time. :oops: The information with it said that it meets all the Hy-tran stuff. Sure seems to work better than the ATF that was in it. Time will tell I guess. Here is some info on what I used. Super Tech Heavy-Duty...
