    Army Signal Oscilloscope

    Great information, thanks. I would have looked inside and made sure it was clean, then plugged it in. Now I'll have to give this more thought. Here is a picture.

    It's a BC-1060-A made by Waterman Products. I'll try and get a picture tonight or tomorrow.

    Missouri salvage yard or dealer on I-70?

    I have seen an army surplus store/dealer/yard? on I-70 east of Kansas City a ways. Can't remember which town it's in, but I remember it being on the frontage road on the south side of the highway. Grain Valley or Oak Grove maybe? I also seem to remember seeing something on this website about...

    Army Signal Oscilloscope

    I have just run across an old US Army Signal Corps Oscilloscope that my parents found going through some of my grandfathers stuff. I'd like to know more about it, functions, value, etc. Anyone on here know anything about these, or could point me to a web site that would be a reference? Thanks.

    Power in M51A2

    Cool, more good info! I have replaced the air filter already, and have new fuel filters, but have not gotten to that yet. I'll work on checking out your suggestions. Also, do you have a thread on the conversion you did to the Mack. Regardless of what I find, I still may be interested in doing...

    Power in M51A2

    The tires are 14.00R20s and unfortunately, I didn't change them out. They came on the truck, so not an easy fix.

    Power in M51A2

    5th gear is back towards the seat. If I remember correctly, the tech manuals say that is the correct trans for an M51A2. But what you say could help explain my issue. I am in the process of looking at an overdrive tranny.

    Power in M51A2

    AMGeneral Yes is does have the multifuel. Should have mentioned that. I am not certain about the overdrive, I have been unable to get to the tag to verify. Just basing that on what the technical manuals say should be there. However, without going out to look, I'm pretty sure 5th is all the way...

    Power in M51A2

    I'm looking for feedback from someone who has used this variation of truck with super-singles and is hauling heavy loads. I'll start by saying I've been searching this forum looking at re-powering this truck, but (1). Can't find a great thread on the details of doing this, and (2). Not sure...

    Looking for help in the Kansas City area

    Lots of stuff. At the moment, the first priority is the headlights. There is no wiring to the dimmer switch. I highly suspect the lights won't work without that being in the circuit. I can't find any wires that are loose, and can't find anything in the manuals that tells me where the wiring...

    Looking for help in the Kansas City area

    I have an M51A2 dump that I'd like some help with. I think I have located all the online manuals for this thing, and in some cases they have been helpful. However, I am working right now on the electrical system, and am not having a lot of luck. I'd like to see if there is someone in the...

    M51A2 transfer case linkage

    Great minds think alike. I did just that yesterday. Actually took the tunnel cover off and messed with it from above. Cannot get it to stay in low with the the shift rod in any position. Any thoughts on what the issue might be inside the case? Thanks.
