I drove an M1028A1 for 174K miles on it in stock form and sold it to a member on this site. I was coast to coast 2 times and up and down the east coast for 18 years. Towed and used it. It had 2500 miles on it when I bought it from SECO in 1995. &0 -75 MPH was the sweet speed range, and I never...

The after grind is not related to the relay. I can promise you that. As far as the cooler lines you may need to get a crows foot line wrench and remove the cooler lines. You need a better look at the flywheel 360* and really inspect it. My experience has been the engine will stop at 3 places...

If you ever go to sand and repaint that truck you will need 10 rolls of 80 grit sand paper. That truck has excellent corrosion protection with the 2 coats of CARC that are on it. But if you were to want a repaint of the entire truck you would be sanding forever. The days are gone when you find a...

OK. You ask for my opinion. I was a GM Service technician back in the late 70's and early 80's. I was not the transmission guy. The dealership I worked in we had guys that did transmissions and we had guys like me that did general service work, warranty and factory recalls. I did Pennsylvania...

Headlamps I am thinking the headlamp dimmer switch mounted under the dash on the column. Easy to diagnose. The switch is on the left side it has 3 wires going to it and a white plastic plug with squeeze locks. Unplug it and jump from the single wire to one of the other to wires. Use a test light...

Anybody know if there is an applicable TM or parts manual for this trailer chassis? Picture for reference only. No leaf springs is my point of posting the picture. Thank you.

Look at that. CUCV cruise control with little or no cost.

This is what I am working with. Since my current crusher and running gear/trailer chassis weighs 3125 LB's I think I nailed it with this chassis. This trailer comes complete with QR code. https://nationalstocknumber.org/nsn/2330-01-387-5424

That would be a new one on me. We built trailers at work, and we had the torsion axles as an option. It was a popular option, I never heard of any issues with torsion axles. I would have thought the military would have thought of that. I am willing to take the chance. I am not even near half the...

I have replaced a lot of rusty window sash over the years on M1009's rear glass and all other vehicles that were originally designed to use the swedged rubber method from new. I always have 100% results with the use of Manus 25AM sealant adhesive. Manuals-Bond 25-AM: Amazon.com: Industrial &...

I had an M1028 A1 that had indecisive shifting. I changed the VRV and that made no difference. I took it to the transmission shop, and they adjusted it with a gauge. He said he was not happy with the way it shifted either. As time went on it remained a PITA. It would pull out in 2nd and shift on...

The big wheeled 6 lug trailers have leaf springs. But they also have air over hydraulic brakes, and I don't want to mess with them. They are overkill for what I need, and I don't think the distance between the wheel housings is enough to get my Rock Crusher between. But really the air over...

No these do not have leaf springs and the trailer you pictured is not heavy enough for my crusher. Weight, maximum: 3160 lb (1434.64 kg) is 20 lbs more than what the crusher weighs. These have torsion suspension and 4200 GVW. perfect for my application. I don't want the HMMWV tires and wheels...

I think I was fooled. It looks like a Plymouth Trailblazer at 4:15 the imposter is clear. Just another K5 knock off. https://fb.watch/apj6no7IUt/

It may run hot but it will not circulate that coolant thru the heater core. I had Chevrolet trucks back in the 60's and that was always the issue. Low coolant, No heat.

The rubber elbows are getting hard to find. The F part is almost non existent. Be good to what you have and patch and play from this point. Glad to hear my fuel line replacement was not the culprit. I thought I could change a fuel line and do it right. I do know the feeling. I had a perfect...

That tan trailer has air over hydraulic.

Thank you. I like the looks and the springs on that trailer chassis. I want to find out more about these trailers and get an eyeball on them. I am hoping they have surge brakes on them. Thank you for the reply. I am sure someone else out there knows something about these trailer chassis.
