cabs are identical externally .. Hole locations for pedals , lines, wires, (and if gasser, starter switch) will be different or non-existant.. Deuce dash is also different than early 5T in same sense of hole locations for switches etc
okay, thus it must also be affected by altitude .. So,,, with the Whatsit being mounted high on the firewall out of danger of fording operations, you add your current land elevation plus Whatsit height on truck, then multiply the result of the given polynomial by 1/3rd, then square that, then...
Pascal's theory applies to art .. No wait, that's Pastel's theorum.. Got my Crayola-sponsored class mixed up with the science class i withdrew out of after two weeks of being totally confused by assumed correlations between whatsits, doohickies, thingamabobs, gizmos, thingy's, and wtf's ..
But...
i realize old post, so by now perhaps you've figured out just how heavy that M813's winch is and in addition how the M813 wheelbase puts more weight on the front axle, and that the number of spring leaves are same between them .. I have a M818 w/w and an M818 wo/w .. Yes winch trucks sit a bit...
always needed to do mine w/choke full-out until it wants to catch, then try it again with choke in and barely crack the hand throttle ... I always had to do same with the gasser 5-tons , regardless of the season or air temp ,, unless engine is already warm
well you aren't delusional cuz my 5-Ton gasser was headed your way until the fuel pump decided to start filling the crankcase and give it a complete internal flush .. wow did i ever catch that in time before any damage or worse yet, engine explosion due to the fumes .. After shutdown you...
on the left-hand tank (M39A1/A2-series, 78 gallon, OD, 1-each), what you have marked as "fuel return" is actually the inlet port for the feed line coming from passenger-side 55g aux tank fuel transfer pump on my M62(A2) .. The return line, as well as the feed line actually goes to the big...
i couldn't see the 160 lol.. and was there ever a 160 speedo in any mopar truck? .. way back when,,, my '71 roadrunner had a 150 (one hundred fifty) speedo and i can tell you 135 was too fast with drums all around and
without power brakes !
I believe Eastern erred in the tank description/NSN. Yours looks like what's on the M39A1/A2 series of trucks.. Sorry i forgot to peek at the tank inlet/outlet ports on my M62(A2) and the M51A2's .. Hope to remember this tomorrow
I have a 78g tank from an M809-series, though.. It sits...
looks awesome! .. just a fyi, and yes it's past my bedtime and very tired but no mistakes this time..
The M880's/890's and even the 4-door 1977-78 D200's & W200's the air force received did not have the AM radio.. Instrument panel is moulded solid in that area..
But don't sweat it, my...
parts procurement/stocking for the M880/890-series was also complicated by the existence of near-identical @1973 thru 1976 commercial dodge pickups in the system as well, many having standard trannies
well i'll be ! I have not seen grilles hacked out like that for a hood lock .. :D .. None of the 880's in my units had any locks.. However I have an M880 and M890 in the yard with bolted external hasps for a hood lock, immediately above the grille..
Glad to see you went by photos , i stand...
"what's supposed to be here?" : i will have to check my wrecker or the m51a2's to be sure, but that flat boss might be for placing the fitting for the line coming over from the transfer pump on certain M39-series-types that have a pony (reserve) tank on the pass side
"what's this?" : i...
depends on the decade perhaps .. i seem to recall tons of them out in AZ and CA in the early 2000's , and they seemed to be a steady commodity in PA since the 1990's
i see you chose the less-common 1976 version .. very nice build ! .. the BO drive light cutout should involve the next tier up on the grille , and what is the cutout over at far side of grille supposed to represent ?
