800 series 5 tons - yes, 900 series 5 tons - no, it's too wide by 11-18 inches.

MKT-75 through MKT-90 all had about the same 'guts' and all the MKT series could interchange parts. Most that were kept by the military have been upgraded to the MKT-99 standard, either in a refurbishment by contractors, or by getting a 'kit' and doing it in the motor pool. Some of the things...

Short air pack fits in the same place as the long one. All attaching points are the same.

I was thinking that might be what he has now.

Is your radio 12 or 24 volt? If 12 V, try switching which alternator/battery you are drawing the power from.

Your Fire Department will need to fill out a "Freedom of Information" request on your official letterhead and submit to the proper authorities, probably along with the paperwork you have for the truck, including it's serial number for them to verify. Then, if the stars align properly, they will...

Your 280 shelter has a back porch! I have an M-36 w/S-280 that is setup in a similar fashion.

Last time our club bought Opti-Lube, it was in a five gallon bucket, enough to treat 2500 gallons of JP-8, Diesel 1 or 2.

Stephan Wood Products in Michigan makes the fiberglass seat slats. Tell them exactly what it is for and they will come pre drilled for the bolts.

Actually, our group is staying in a motel, which is less than 10 minutes from the park. No tents, no cabins, 'free breakfast' (built into the room rate), hot water showers, TV, and other amenities of civilization.

Not really for the general public. There is a club newsletter. Our next event is the Gilbert Peach Festival on July 4 where we will parade about 8-10 vehicles. Next event is the Lexington Sherrif's Touch a Truck on Aug 5, and the Chapin Labor Day Parade On Sep 4. SouthEast Rally in Windrock...

Put up a 'for sale' here first, you will get more money and fewer 'tire kickers'.

And to make life simpler, see if you can find a Lisle Brake Bleeding Kit, part number 19200. it has a cup to catch the brake fluid in and a clear line to see if there are still bubbles. Less cleanup that way!

Bleed the MC by loosening the line at the air pack, and tighten again quickly once it has no bubbles. You will need to have air pressure or the pump sprayer contraption that Kenny described originally to bleed the air pack. Out of the air pack the line splits off to the front and the back at...

Get an assistant to pump the brakes, then go to the furthest rear brake cylinder, and with the assistant holding the brake pedal down after several pumps, open the relief valve just a little. When the stream is steady fluid, close it quickly. Repeat for each of the rear brake cylinders. Then...

What did I say about a better memory and search skills! Didn't take long!

The first part of that number is what it was built as 03-25, the second part is the serial number, which started with 10,000, so your truck was the 2379'th truck of that type delivered under that contract. A decade or more ago, there was a posting that identified the codes for the first part...

How big of a trailer do you have? I've got three engines in cans that I'll likely never do anything with, and a fourth that was idled w/o any coolant in the system. I should also have 'somewhere' six LDS piston assemblies and a couple of hundred poppet valve push rods! Start a conversation...

No, they are blissfully unaware of real science.

105's need a tall truck pintle location to be usable. That means a deuce or taller vehicle to pull it, hence not anywhere near as much interest in them vs the M101 series trailers. Back around 2010 the M-101 series were selling for $500+ while the M-105's were under $200. 750 now is about...
