Hey Guys, I need to figure out an approximate weight of an M942 (w/w XLWB chassis) truck. I know its basically the same as an M928 (25,400 Fully Equipped according to transport guidance) just without the cargo bed, but I don't have any weights for the LWB bed/tap/bows etc to figure out the...

Hey Guys, Trying to help a friend diagnose some brake performance issues with his M936A2. I have no experience with wrecker variants of the M939 series, so I don't know exactly what they should feel like, but they seem weak. The truck has non-functional ABS, and it is rare that the tires...

Hey Guys, I am trying to help a friend with a HMMWV with some braking problems. Popped the master cylinder cap and found two fluids that were NOT getting along well, you could see two separate materials clearly, and some of it seems to have coagulated slightly. Does this look like a mix-up...

Hey Guys, I have been having an issue with my M925A2's fuel tank cap/strainer. Originally my truck had a screw on strainer assembly, it was a steel strainer with what I think was a stainless ring to screw onto the tank. After a few months in storage, I found the strainer to be BADLY rusted...

Hey Guys, I have a T138 case from an 809 truck, it has the always-like PTO on the back, was wondering if taking it out of the equation is as simple a removing the PTO unit, and adding the cover plate to the housing? Not sure what the inner workings are like. Also, if anyone knows where I...

Hey Guys, I am working on a M1009 that has obviously had the heater core bypassed at some point. I have two main questions. 1.) On a stock truck, I know one of the hoses attaches at the crossover, but where does the other one attach? The water pump? That is the only other plug I see...

Hey Guys, I have a '70 816 and my oil pressure gauge is in need of replacement. It is a mechanical gauge, as evidenced by the oil leaking on my foot. :-P I've spent the last hour looking, but haven't found anything regarding mechanical gauges on these trucks. Does anyone have a part number...

Hey Guys, On the starter relay, the two terminals on top, the rearmost one is the 24v hot from the starter button, and I think the one towards the front is a ground maybe? Is there supposed to be a ground wire there or is it grounded through the mount? Thanks!
