RE: Re: RE: turbo vs non-turbo The turbo/ non turbo question is a good one. I perfer a non turbo deuce because they seem to start quicker in cold weather. I also like simple things and a blown turbo doesn't make things simple in the engine when pieces go flying through air intakes and oil...

My '64 White M35A1 dump truck is known as "Old Smokey" The LDS-427 deserves the title. JT

Congratulations, I'm glad you found a good one, hopefully your experience with the Schotts was OK. I had a feeling that they just weren't into our kind of visiting and sharing stories, but were real good businessmen. Have a ball, John Tennis :D

I want to restate that my fording kits are for the Reo with a gas engine. I don't know how much of the kit will work on a multifuel except for the air inlet extension tube and bracket for it. The Reo exhaust came out by the right tandem duals and the stack in the kit bolts to the flange at the...

RE: EUC Lee, you sound a little impatient with the competency of our GL servants. I have gone through exactly the same kind of bull many times. The last time it was this bad, the things that neede changing were things they had pre typed into the form when I brought it up on screen to...

I have seen 12.00x20s mounted on M276 Retriever wreckers. That would be a great choice for your M543. A little taller, just a little wider, will fit your stock 5 ton rims fine. John Tennis

15.50's are only approved for 10" or 11 " rims, that's a long stretch from 7 " deuce rims. How do they work? Is it licensed?

I have done the PITA way too many times and I decided to do something different, We now make a spin on primary/water separator filter adaptor, put it on once and from then on, just spin on and spin off. My adaptor goes right on your existing primary base and uses a Napa 3405 primary water...
