Any leak under the hood will find its way into the cab. When my M813 blew the muffler on a long trip we had to run with windshields cracked open and door windows open just to stay in the cab. Taped up all cracks and stuffed rags in holes and it still got in. You could find all the air leaks...

RE: Welcome Welcome aboard Jess!!!! I also collect antique tractors, mostly John Deere, and am a cotton farmer. Do you have any JD pickers mounted on old two-cylinders? I have three of the first IH two rows, 2 416's and 1 414. They are wornout now and just taking up shelter space. We are...

This is on a 1956 M543. Only the main contacts appear to be silver plated. The outermost ones are copper unless all the plating is gone.

When I picked up my M813 it started and ran for about five minutes and died. Checked filters and they were fine but low on fuel. Took the line loose at injection pump and applied compressed air to the fuel tank to force fuel through. In the process heard a pop sound which turned out to be a...

My Sherwin Williams store could not even order it. It has to be an industrial store.

Fort Stewart is not to far off I-95 and they have a nice museum with old vehicles and other articles of interest inside. Once on post you can ride around and see old tanks and half-tracks standing guard at some buildings. You can also ride by the motor pools and see rows and rows of modern...

Wish I were closer but its a long way from Georgia.

Most of the trucks look like they hav'nt moved in a while. Are they running trucks or is he selling parts? What kind of prices does he have on them.

RE: Anything to see in or around Savannah Georgia to do with Hello John I am 35 miles from the JCB plant. The Mighty Eight Air Force Museum is right next to the JCB plant. Fort Stewart is not far away but nor sure if you will have a problem getting on post. You have to show insurance on you...
