If anyone has an interest in what I believe is a m543 wrecker maybe from Korean era. It is a gasoline model. No pictures yet but if there is any interest I’ll get some
years ago I installed a mk17a1 palfanger crane on a deuce chassis with a pto run hydraulic pump. It has served me well except for cold weather days when the oil is cold it will strip the teeth off the pto shaft in the transmission. The hydraulic pump probably pulls 50 hp. Yep you guessed...
Finally made time to put the crane on a duece. Got the bed off. Cut the mounts in the front, removed fuel tank and tire mount. Set the crane on the frame. Looks like it is going to need some serious bracing b4 use. Just thought I would share a pic. Still a lot of work to go!
Does anyone have a hitch for the mk17 rear units? Need to tow one from Lejune. I have a hitch but would have to weld on. If I can't find an original hitch is there anyone who could tow an mk17 off base to a staging point I could weld the hitch at?
Think about bidding on mk-17a1 Oskosh rear at Lejune. Has anyone ever towed one of these with a duece? What kind of brakes? Compatable with air on the Duece? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks :D
HELP!! Brought new m35a2 home not running. Found the IP head retainer clips and return spring floating in the pump case. Put everything back together and the truck fired right up, but when you load the engine as in normal driving it stalls. Smokes grey all the time but when accellerating...
