    convoy lights

    Mine are wired per the directions and come off the dimmer switch... I'm planning on inserting a relay so that the relay is fed from the dimmer, but that the lights themselves are fed from the battery (fused, of course). I also plan to insert a relay to the headlights since I am running Hella...

    Yaller 5-ton wrecker for sale

    I'm in the same boat... I've talked about it, emailed wreckeman and have extra photos, and talked to Mrs. Battle, but I've got a yard full of stuff, and folks keep backing out of sales... Grab her and take care of her for us...

    $350 for M101 trailer- a good deal?

    RE: Yep its a M101A1 2.5 or 5kw... Mine was missing the generator and tank as well. Had a bunch of jerry can holders bolted to the wheel wells and a lot of other brackets installed for light poles and such. I suspect that a lot of what you got depended on what the generator was powering...

    Wanted: -1C turbo, buy or trade

    You know, I've got a great running M35A2C with a D turbo and every now and then I think that it really neads to have a C turbo so I can get that great sound, then I drive it on a six hour (each way) trip... Shame I can't have a "quick change" for parades/trips... ;)

    $350 for M101 trailer- a good deal?

    RE: Yep its a M101A1 I missed that it was a generator trailer (didn't look at the photos until just now). If you remove the tank and such, keep me in mind as I would like to have the fuel filler for use on a project. Also, the gas tank that was fitted under the M101/M101A1 for use with the...

    Antenna Mount??

    RE: mount Yeah, I've been thinking of that one too, but you've got to crawl around it when you work on that side of the engine (not that I plan on spending that much time there, but recently, I have been....belts, hoses, adjusting the alternator, etc...). The back of the cab similar in...

    M37 help

    AGE and LACK OF USE is why an engine with so few miles would have so many problems... I agree, check out the oil pressure and see if you have bigger problems first before going after the carb. I suspect that things are ok, but that the engine just needs a bit of exercise (and that the carb...

    Antenna Mount??
