I sold some equipment on gov planet / iron planet a few month back, and lets just say the transaction was less-than smooth. Do we have a member here that is still working at either of these shops?

Any dozer / loader owners out there? Picked up an 1150 awhile back that was setup as a convertible. (once armored, no longer the case) Have since found a new enclosed cab / ROPS and am working on getting it running now. The machine was missing all of it's front drive accessories off the...

I have a machine with some wacky power requirements, necessitating a dedicated set to put out 600v 3 phase, and roughly 60KW. The folks I got the machine from, ran the unit off of a 90KW set, but noted it was oversized for the application. So I'm looking into options for a new (hopefully used)...

Hello, looking for some input on getting this new to me gen set up and running. The engine cranks, but fails to start. I've followed the TM trouble shooting as seen by the red arrows: So it seems there is an issue related to the Magnetic Pickup (or MPU as the TM calls it) It appears to be...

Have a 32'' bucked I'd like to have moved. Any time within the next 2 weeks would be great. Forklift available to load / unload.

Afternoon, I've got a set of 395's on aluminum mrap wheels that I'd like to mount on my LRT crane. The lug pattern is the same as the MRAP rims, but I'm looking to source the correct lug nuts. The wheel studs on the crane are 3/4-16, and the mounting holes for the rim are 1''. Anyone seen a mag...

Looking for someone who may be able to assist me with getting this shipping container rotisserie disassembled, and brought off-base so that I can have it shipped out west in pieces. Looks to just be bolted together, and could be hauled off on a car trailer. Ultimate destination is California...

Pulled the fifth wheel off my m923a2 to put on a 10yd Heil dump box. Finishing up a new subframe for it now, and am tackling the hydraulics next. From my m936 donor, I pulled the winch, controls, and transmission PTO which are all mounted up now. What I would like to do (if possible) is use that...

Trying to tighten up the steering on my 916A1, but I can't find a part number, or anyone selling just the tie rod ends. The parts manual gives a number for the complete tie rod assembly, but not the ends. In the same TM, it lists a part number for the 915 tie rod ends, but after looking at those...

Getting bumped out of our yard near San Jose, and am looking for a new spot. Would like to rent about an acre of relatively flat land for a collection of MV's. Would like to trade a vehicle as compensation for rent: Frankentop M925a2 Frankentop M923a2 Frankentop M932a2 Frankentop M923a2...

I heard those caught on fire?

Spent the last few days making a converter dolly out of a 5ton bogey and a MK back half towbar. Have most of it finished up now except for hooking up the brakes, and thats where I'm needing some help. The bogey had no relay valves, or plumbing besides the lines that ran from the top of...

I'd like to add a manual fan override switch to my 5ton for various reasons. Prefer to not add any electrical systems for simplicity's sake, so I've been thinking about mechanical options. Take a look at my napkin sketch: What I'd like to know, is if there is a valve made that would...

Picked up this P-19 a while back. Was barely able to keep it running up the loading ramp and onto the trailer, but over the last couple years, it would always fire up, and run well enough to move it around the yard wherever it needed to be. It never lived to idle, and ran real rough. There was...

Have a few trips coming up, and mostly will be traveling empty. PM if I might be able to help.

Experienced an intermittent power loss, then two shutdowns with the truck today. At first, the truck felt like the pedal became disconnected from the throttle. No power. Coasted to the side of the road, and truck continued to idle. CEL, and engine shutdown were lit. Shut it down, then got out to...

Why is it so underrated? I regularly see 5tons flat towing other 939 trucks. Is there any documentation that approves a 5ton to tow more than 15K off the pintle? Have a bigger trailer I'd like to move but am worried about the liability.

Would like to run higher tire pressure on my tractor when on road, is this as easy as swapping the control box?

Stole the winch off a 936 for my LWB tractor last weekend. Just wondering if there is an easy way to thread the wire rope through the auto tensioner? Do I have to unspool the whole drum? Would loosening this clevis nut help at all? Thanks!
