Recently purchased a 1969 Clark IM48 forklift. 4000 pound capacity. Runs well, no major issues. Looking for any information and manuals... thanks. Tim pictures to follow soon.

New to me mep803a with 40 hours. Did the standard stuff on arrival. New fluids, filters and coolant. Batteries are good. Started right up but oil pressure lamp lit and engine shut down. Second try, starts and runs fine. Let it run if an hour and on restart, shuts down on low oil pressure safety...

I'm planning on adding a pyrometer, tach, boost gauge, power port and some kind of stalk light. It seems like the ideal location would be in type some type of box that mounts on top of the heater. Anybody have anything like that or ideas? Also wondering if there is a tach signal already...

I have been the steward of the Chevy v8 powered goat for about the last ten years and have had many adventures with her. Sadly, I think that my fleet is getting too large and have been contemplating letting someone else take her on adventures. She is plenty drive able and will do 60mph! Tires in...

I located a 1995 m1078 and it seems in great shape. I have lost many hours reading the adventures of others on this forum and have come to know that the wonky shifts are likely tied to the wonky speedo. Seems simple enough to fix. learned of some cool mods as well. Me thinks more power is a good...

Just purchased this truck about 140 miles from home and foolishly attempted to drive it home. The truck Ran well up and down hills until about 60 miles into the trip when the secondary fuel filter gasket spring a major leak. Had to have a tow truck come bring it the rest of the way home. Major...

So I did due diligence thing and searched the forum pretty thoroughly, lots of comments, mostly vague not really sure what color I should paint it. Not super concerned with originality, mostly thinking of course it's got to be olive drab but thinking about durability as well. I'm sure these...

I can't locate the correct dump bed for my truck an the current bed is way wrong and beat to ****. I found a M211 fairly close with a great bed and tailgate. Anyone see any reason I can't do this? I can fab most anything. Ideas?

A few years ago, my son ran my Willys powered mule out of oil! The block was destroyed but I managed to find another and have gathered most of the parts but lack the time and desire... Anyone aware of a running Willys 4 cly motor available? I know most have been converted to the 2 cylinder motor...

Don't ask cuz I won't tell where. I found several Goats languishing in a shed far from home. Working on acquiring the one with 78 miles for a museum piece... Enjoy the pictures...

Whilst crawling around under my heavy, slow deuce today, I noticed quite the puddle of gear lube under my newly topped off center axle. Seems as though the pinion seal gave up the ghost. I see nos units on epay. Anyone have any luck finding this at the local napa or whatever?

I tried searching the forum to no avail. Has anyone tried to put an m35 ash in an m211 215 135 etc. etc.? My truck As the Detroit diesel 6V 53 and what I now know to be a five speed fuller transmission and therefore needs to have the gear drive tachometer. I noticed whilst searching on eBay that...

Going to take a serious look at a running, driving m211 for parts this Saturday. If all goes well, I'll drive it 100 miles home... Couple of passes so its gonna be a slow trip. Lots of good stuff to rob and complete my dumper. Prolly put what I can on the. Spare rig and sell it off.

So now that I have one, I need two, right? While searching for parts for my XM 215, I came across another truck, m211. It has a lot of parts that I could use to finish mine. Including some good tires which I badly need. The seller says it will drive but the transmission will not work in...

Just purchased a 1955 XM215 in pretty rough shape. Currently has a Detroit 6V53 motor and a four speed transmission from an old county dump truck. The dump bed is not correct. The old girl is pretty solid and relatively straight otherwise. It sat for about 10 years before I got it neglected, I...
