On my other threads, I posted that a local truck junk yard has a M816 body with no axles and a blown engine. Everything else seem to be there on the wrecker body and cab (no seats though). Front bumper is bent all to crap but the winch is there along with a decent hood and hardtop. I was...

On my recently purchased M54A2, I found that it is missing the linkage for the clutch. I looked in the TM and it shows the adjustable part of the linkage that hooks onto the pivot, but I did not see how it hooked to the actually clutch itself. Does anyone have some good pictures that show...

Long story before to explain why I ask this: A couple of years ago, I found an old M246 tractor wrecker (gasser) in a field close to where I live. It sparked my interest in the wreckers so I started doing a little research into the tractor wreckers. I got the idea of starting a side business...

No this is not a rant against GL. Just got off the phone with my insurance agent (Allstate). She said she can issue me a title bond for my deuce and I can take that along with my VIN verification from the State Police to the DMV to get my title/registration. Cost: $100!!(plus DMV fees). This...

Has anyone picked up a large truck at Barstow CA location and had the GL guy assist in loading? I have a 5 ton there and a trucker lined up to pick it up. It does not run and needs to be winched/towed onto a trailer. The trucker wants to charge an extra $500 to do this. I called Dave(the...

Can anyone with a 5 ton(M39 or M800 series) measure the widest point in front of the windshield? Either the outside of the fenders or the hubs, which ever is wider? I am looking at buying a gantry crane to do an engine swap and was wondering how wide of a stance do I need on the crane. How...

Well in my quest for a 5 ton and in hopes to get some swap parts for my future wrecker, I went and won this at Barstow. Somebody stop me!!

Somebody on here had posted a while back about the duece fire tankers using the exhaust to heat the water tank to keep it from freezing. Been searching and I guess I am not putting in the right terms. Does anyone know the TM# or have a drawing showing how the exhaust was piped to keep the...

Unfortunately, I can no longer spend time and money trying to get this moved back from Georgia to New Mexico. It a 5 ton cargo with the Mack ENDT 673 engine that runs strong. Needs a wiring harness and cab top. Sprague needs fixed/adjusted. No title, bill of sale only. I think it needs an...

I bought this back in September and am still struggling to get it home. Its a M54A1 that runs and drive but needs to be trailered home. Anyone know a shipper that can do this? thanks

Lets say you have an interest in a 5 ton wrecker and you find a M819 nearby, within 100 miiles of you. Its in running condition, everything works on it and it has a title, tires are good and it looks like the guy needs to get rid of it soon. How much would you pay for it?

Just won a couple of pallets of stuff at Ft.Riley KS. Need them shipped to Aztec NM each pallet weighs about 700lbs and has a long pole of about 6 feet across it. Can be taken off of pallet and put in a pickup if needed. thanks

Anyone got a cab cover for an older 5 ton (M39 series) they want to sell me? Prefer tan color but I will take what ever you got and can ship to me out here in the boonies. Just need the cover no supports. thanks

Since I have not heard from the guy who was gonna buy my winch ( not the scam guy) in about two weeks, I am putting my winch back up for sale. Its probably buried in the classifieds somewhere. Its a 45,000 lbs rated winch. The input shaft is broken but has the cable and looks in good shape...
