UPDATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
After several nights working on the M62(late nights)and some part swapping it is back to operational again,I have the M211 replacment trans on the workbench and inner works pulled for cleaning and installiation into the other 211.
Oddball is now on...
Well folks,it looks as if I'll just be making an appearance on Friday just for the day to deliver/collect parts,
I was working on the M211 this evening moving a transmission from one truck to another,when the short driveline from the t'case PTO to the power divider let goin the...
Hey WM,what is your intended route south to the rally site,we will be hitting the Hartwell GA aera at about 1100 or so EST,we may be meeting Jimma and adding to our little convoy there,be glad to have you fall in with us.
We won't be in any major hurry,MDSA will have his N/A deuce towing his...
It's not set in stone yet WM,If the layoff is iminent,I have about 10 to 20K lbs of scrap waiting for it's trip to the yard.
That will be my rally travel cash.
Ok folks,work (or lack thereof) may have thrown a giant wrench into my plans,
As of Oct 2 I(as well as most of our crew) will be laid off till possibly April 1st,so depending on finances,the 915 and lowboy or M211 may not be making the trip south.
I will however be making a day trip in the...
Actually Cranetruck is about 2 hrs north of me( I live in Western North Carolina),but I can run up there and grab the trailer with the dually one weekend,I'll have to figure out how to pack all this stuff on the lowboy though.
I may be able to since I need to meet up with maddawg sometime after the rally to deliver his tires to him and get my 2 915A1 tires(that will take me past Cranetruck's place on the way).
Let me know.
I am going Bruce,and I am taking the 915 and the lowboy,as long as it will fit in the bed of or under a M211 deuce,I can probably haul it,and I need to make a trip to John's place sometime in the future anyway.
Hey Jimma,
what day are you planning to leave for the rally,Thurs or Fri?
We will be leaving I-85 and running down GA hwy 17 on thursday morning if you want to convoy with us.
We'll have either 2 or 3 M35A2s and a 915 w/a lowboy.
That would be 39.5 in high unloaded Kenny.
But Adam's trailer was missing a tire or 2,so it may sit a bit sideways.
I'll have mine there as well,but it may sit a bit lower,915 isn't as tall at the fifth wheel as a 818.
I think I can scrape up 2 3 x 6 ft tables and I will be bringing my BIG compressor(80 gal tank) 1 in drive gun and my entire toolbox attached to the M172A1 trailer.
It has been mentioned several times in past years about having a few informal "Tech sessions" or classes on various topics( IP...
