    More Tracked stuff!

    And of course, after the carburetor is installed and actually pumping fuel, the fuel pump decides to take a crap. Parts on order from Then and Now, did that early this morning, hopefully I'll have parts next Tuesday. Both the carburetor bowl and the fuel filter were filled with varnish. The...

    More Tracked stuff!

    Had a chance to think with it yesterday. We ordered a carb kit from Daytona parts in Florida. It got here Monday. Rebuilt the carburetor, as usual did not take before pictures but I did get some after it was cleaned up in parts pictures and a final assembled product. This is a funky carburetor...

    Lugnut help (newbie)

    Are you going to be hauling any significant loads? If you will just be driving around mostly empty, you can get nuts like the fronts and use them on the studs on the rears and ditch the thimbles.

    Drive line angle

    If the rear of TRANS is up, look at the front mount. Was that moved when the cab was added to? You DO know that these trucks vibrate, shimmy, wiggle all the time. How can you tell :p

    Over Windshield Storage Shelf

    No, TMG do not have FMTV overhead consoles/shelves, they DO for the 8/900 series 5t. You will most likely need to make one.

    Ring Mount Information Needed

    Blisters, did you find any links in the truck when you went through it? I put thousands of rounds down range with that mount on the truck.

    More Tracked stuff!

    No idea how the dual hz worked, there was most likely some sort of converter, stepper, something connected to the end. I do know for a 4 pole generator to produce 60 hz, it truns 1800 RPM. When I did work on gen sets at the airport, the engines still turned 1800 but were 400hz, maybe more poles...

    The museum also owns an M114. The data plate nomenclature says T114. The t114 variant was the tank Killer, had a 106 recoilless mounted at the Commander's Coppola. There weren't too many made, I think it was experimental. This particular track has US Air Force markings. It is marked TRTG...

It acquired while it was still on the Range but unmolested. Was pulled off the range and put on a road for pickup. Nobody told the aircraft that were using...

    need hemtt Detroit Diesel 8v92ta mechanic near Sacramento

    I don't remember how the cooler on a 92 receives coolant. I do remember the outlet is on the left bank under the gov, linkage tubes. Too rusty on driptroits to be of much use.

    need hemtt Detroit Diesel 8v92ta mechanic near Sacramento

    Not with the head off.....well, maybe, plug the outlet or inlet, put regulated pressure with a shut off to the opposite end and see if it holds pressure....has to have a gauge somewhere in the loop.
