Good day fellow SteelSoldiers! I came in possession (auction) of a MEP-804B generator, including the massive trailer that it is moved with. The motor however, was taken apart almost completely. I was after the trailer at first, but now, looking at this unit, I have a hard time to scrap it for...

Hey all! I have a year 2000 M1083A1 with the 3126 in it. This truck has lots of crucial missing parts unfortunately, but I am determined to make it run/complete! First one on the list - Steering Tie Rod (with boots)! I am aware of being in Alaska makes shipping expensive or difficult, but...

Hi folks! I ended up winning an auction item online today, a generator trailer. The thing is, it has only one wheel on, so towing it 60miles home won’t be easy. Does anyone have any ideas as what wheel size, hole pattern these trailers have or if there is a way to substitute the missing wheel?

Hi SS's! I have been jumping into this really quick and... I am loving it! It's kind of a little bit a hate-love thing to be honest, but most definitely 90% a 'love' thing! I have been digging into both of my year 2000 1083A1's for the past weeks (whenever I have a chance), and one thing...

The past few weeks have been pretty exciting - and unforeseeable events made me a proud owner of not just one but two non working 5ton's! And despite missing a lot of parts, I was able to get one started already! If anyone has good sources for parts, other than e-bay etc., - I would very much...
