I picked up a 25,000 lb pintle, air brake flatbed this weekend. I had to remove the gladhands and cap the lines for the fifth wheel trailer hook up. I crawled under the truck to look for shut off valves and did not find any. The rear air lines have shut offs and they worked perfectly. I was...

I recently purchased a Saginaw Products Corp. AAR Cadillac Transporter Trailer. Do we have a tm on this unit. I plan to modify it to haul my highboy sprayer. No green iron will be harmed. I just plan to built a center section that will lift and transport the sprayer. I will post a picture...

Here is my winter project. I took two Samurai apart and made one good one as a little brother for my Deuce. They play together real good.

I had to throw my brother a bone. He has been hauling all of the grain this year and the 915a1 was starting to beat him up. He picked up an air ride seat at the junk yard and I installed it. It was mostly straight forward. I tapped the air line that...

The heater motor in my 915a1 died. I pulled it and it has about 3/4 inch of in and out play in the motor. I recently changed the blower in a piece of farm equipment we have. It looked like the same motor. I pulled the farm one and they are exactly the same. Now if I can find my old paperwork...

About Thanksgiving time the alternator on my deuce decided to give up. I took it to be rebuilt. I called twice and the rebuilder had not got around to it yet. At the 4 week point I walked in the shop and saw my alternator sitting right where I had left it. I told them I wanted it back and...

I recently purchased a model 750 swench off of ebay. I really like it. It makes breaking lug nuts loose easy. I also like not throwing my back out when 6 foot of cheater lets go all at once. I plan to use it to put the lugs back on. The swench manual says to count the number of times the...

I found a pdf file of the air dryer for the 915 series trucks. I am attempting to post it.

Harvest is in full swing and so are the military trucks. We are hauling grain with the 915a1s and using a deuce for a contact maintenance truck. Dad runs the combine. My brother runs the weigh wagon/ grain cart. I drive the 2 915a1s. We unload on the go so the combine never stops moving...

I have been working on my m915a1 fleet for about 2 week straight. I had one come home with a stuck brake and broken axle. That truck got the most attention first. Now that it is up and running I got to work on the better truck. I replaced a air line for the trailer hook up. I put black...

I just pulled the axles on my new 915a1. One wheel is locked up and won't move. When I got the axle out of that side it was broken. I can easily get a new one at the junk yard. What kind of house keeping should I do in the center section?

Does anyone know what feet I should use to tow bar a 915a1? Also is a med bar big enough? I will be looking to purchase these parts in the near future.

I need a 915a1 moved from Ft Mead to Galesburg, IL. I am waiting on the euc right now. My euc usually clears in 2 weeks after auction.

I put a back up light on the 817 today. I removed the 90 deg. fitting from the reverse sprag air line. I replaced it with a t from an air compressor. I then put a straight 1/4 by 3/8 compression fitting in one end. I installed a SL-4, Bendix #228600, air brake switch in the other end. I...

I have had my deuce for about 5 months. It has always started instantly when you push the button. After a recent road trip I noticed it getting harder to start. I checked the valve adjustment, a few were loose so I reset them. I checked the fuel shut down by pulling the cover on the side of...

I recovered my deuce from Camp Dodge today. They have fixed their security problems from this spring! I got there at 11 and was on the road by 12. Truck started and ran great. I have a mystery fluid on passenger front tire. I suspect wheel cylinder. They put padlocks on the tool box so I...

I just purchase a lube trailer, gasser, from sparta. I plan to pick it up with my deuce. Anything I should know about this trailer as far as towing. Also does anyone know where to find the tm on this. I looked and did not find any in search. I will post pics as soon as it is home.

I installed one of the air o matic kits from BrianrBull this weekend. It took me about 7 hours. It could be done faster if you wanted to do some of it again later. I took a bunch of pictures, and here they are. This first batch is just the deuce with the wheels off. There is also a picture...
