    M813 needs air cleaner, is M939 the same ?

    Well, much sadness but I sold my M52a2. It went to a good home. So I pulled my M813 out of mothballs and want to get going on it to ease my pain of loss . This truck is missing some parts but the big item is the air cleaner. Someone hacked an M39 series onto it so I need to get the correct...

    Cummins NHC 250 vs Mack ENDT 673

    As an owner of both, most of what's posted here is true but one thing not discussed. The radiators in the M39 series Mack powered are hack jobs and not nearly big enough. If you are just gonna use it for a toy, it's fine. Plan on working it hard, expect overheating problems and good luck finding...

    Help, m51a2 radiator overflow if blowing out fluid

    First of, which engine do you have ? LDS ? Some of these had Mack motors. It could be a cracked head as well. I would do a pressure test and maybe pull the injectors to see which cyl. Any coolant in the oil or oil in the coolant ? You could have the antifreeze sample analyzed. is there bubbling...

    Another gp thread... 24v resistor failure

    There is only one proper way to test a glowplug. Take them out, make a set of small jumpers and put power to each one and look at it(don't touch the end or you will get burned). It should glow nice and hot at the TIP. if it does not glow or glows in the middle, it's junk.

    Blow by

    I got two trucks with NHC250s in them. They both have a little out the breather. It's normal. Remember these are 30+ year old trucks that probably were not treated well and also sat. When it started puking oil out then worry. Even the 6bt's have catch cans on them from the factory....

    Legal headlight height

    ct dmv/dot busts balls on that one which really pisses me off because not one oil truck that I have ever seen in act has one and if a car goes under the back of an oil truck it's got a long way to before it hits tires and will probably burn to death in fire after they rip the 2inch pipe...

    M52a? Questions

    Ok been playing with this thing for awhile and still trying to figure out what I actually have. Someone told me the windshield hinges indicated it's a mid 60's IHC gasser that was converted to a Mack driveline. Judging by the horrible conversion, that looks to be accurate. All the holes for the...

    Did the military use any detachable gooseneck trailer ?

    Title say it. Was wondering if they used any detachable gooseneck lowboys like a Rogers 35 ton and if so what would be the M classification?
