Got a serious rig now. We drove 70 miles south to Ft. Carson with my M818 and a friends M35A2 to pick up a 38 foot M9171 ex data center trailer minus the computers but full of some serious electrical distribution equipment and picked up another M35A2 parts truck. The trailer has air bag...

Anyone out there have any experience with an XM971 Data trailer? Its a 38 foot van trailer used for a moblie computer center. Has air bag 5 wheel and rear axle suspension. It has four 208 volt air conditioner/heaters mounted high up front. Picking this one up at Ft Carson next week...

Here are the two I'm trying to replace. I wonder if it would worth while to contact AM General?

Anyone know where to get the two decals that go on the big fender mounted air cleaner on the Cummins 5 tons??

The Military Vehicles Collectors of Colorado (MVCC) had a real big showing at the 2008 ST Patty's Day parade. We had the big iron out in large numbers for the first time since many members had acquired some new 5 and 2 1/2 ton trucks. We had close to 20 vehicles. Four 5 tons, maybe 10 deuces...

In the mid-day Colorado sun mine puts out 53 volts attached to just the volt meter. They put out way less than 1 Amp. It keeps a set of two batteries on my 818 at 25.7 to 25.9 volts. I cut off the terminal ends and soldered alligator clips on so I could swap between battery banks. Not sure if...

perfecto!!!! I was looking in the wrong section. Thanks Mike. Phil C

What TM would have a decent electrical diagram in it? I'm pretty sure I have all of them for M809 series in digital format. Can't seem to find electrical diagrams. Also, Cummins coldstart glowplug, 12 volts or 24 volts at the plug? The tractor I am going to pick up has 24 volts at the...

RE: reply to tow bar ends Yes very, very lucky to have her around and interested in these old green machines.

reply to tow bar ends Here a a few pictures of the ends we used to hook up the M37. Phil C

Thanks Scrounger. That is what I will probably do. Will take pics of the whole deal.

Thanks Brian. The M101 has no bows or top. The M105 trailer is almost mint with all 4 racks and a new top. Was planning to put the racks and top in another vehiicle. I will be able to measure both trailers before I pick them up. The yard has very large forklift that ccan lift the M101...

Hope to pick up my M818 tractor and 2 trailers at GL. Any know if a M101 trailer will fit inside a M105A2 trailer so I can get all three home? The width of the M101 appears to be 73.5 inches. The inside side to side width of a M105A2 is also 73.5 inches. Looks like with with the wheels off...

They be the ones. Get the extra large one to ensure fit and ease of installation. Phil c

For qwalker I checked the bumper numbers again. These numbers are on the right side of the bumper 143 GP-1E 143. On the left side are the truck number A-22. Does seem like alot of unit numbers. And yes it is the oval CCKW rear window. Phil C

Yes it is. 3/4" one end. 1" on the other. Phil C

Mike is right. The ends had to go on with the 3/4" socket as you see it. It was over kill with that tow bar. Only one we had at the time. Takes minimum of two people to jockey that heavy duty towbar around. And thanks to Nattieleather and qwalker for the responses on the M=37's unit and...

My wife found this 1951 M37 at a barn sale 4 miles from the house and convinced the owner to sell it to her for $800! Its a complete truck except for the bed racks and seats and is pretty much rust-free. The only body damage is a slight fold on the lower lip of the front left fender. Even...

Hey Ray. Mine have been on my trucks for a year and a half and are holding up pretty good. Phil C

cab covers I got mine here in Denver, Colorado at a store called Big R which is a farm supply store. The model I got was on sale for $22. It seems to be a thicker material also. I had friends here with some big trucks scarf some up too. I did buy one at Tractor Supply during some travels...
