    The second picture is my wrecker while it was serving with the 10TH Combat Support Hospital unit out of FT Carson, CO. That unit is still in existence there and one of these days I am going to visit them to see if they can provide any history on the truck. In the sixth picture we are moving...

    What have you done WITH your wrecker this week?

    M43 in the Air Here are a few pics that shows the clearance the hook has to the grill guard when the M43 is lifted for tow. Its fairly close but won't get any closer. Also I fabricated a towing light bar that basically clamps to the bumperettes do it can used on any vehicle.

    M931A2. Fuel prime

    The bleeder cap/screw/bolt on the 8.3 is 10mm. Good idea to have a 10mm box wrench onboard just in case.
