    I have TB 9-2855-40 - Instructions For The Installation Of Personnel Heater Kit (Hot Water) (24V) It has parts list, pictures, etc. Do I need to try to figure out how to scan and upload a copy?

    I have lived in the country and had to move to the city when I left home at 18. Very much miss living away from town and if the opportunity presents itself, I will move out of town. Did the 40 mile each way commute for 5 years. It does get old, but you can adjust to it. Sometimes the drive is...

    I'm planning to get up to Montana/Idaho later this summer to see Ben and Merle. Our southern border is wide open to anyone who wants in, but I think our northern border is still locked down. Not sure how we go about getting things across yet. I'll bring a passport incase things open up when I...

    Are all of those engines on metal frames? I'd be interested in some of the frames to put engines on, so don't scrap them.

    What a neat find!! Thank you for letting us join in on the excitement of opening up those crates. I've got a question about Gander's instrument cluster. Is the panel new or did you guys paint the Low Range/High Range, Oil, Air and High Beam markings on it? If you guys painted those on, would...

    I am sorry for your loss Dave. It sounds like your dad was a truly great man. Very neat that he left those 71 pages about his life. What a priceless thing to leave his family!! You are in our thought and prayers down here. If you need anything or just need to talk, let me know I have to...

    One of my parts trucks has mismatched bell housings. The previous owner told me that they used the truck extensively on a pecan orchard and the truck was working great when they parked it years ago. The farm shut down and the truck sat for 25 or 30 years after that.

    Does this picture count for the T-shirt or do we need another angle? Those are 1100x20s. These are on truck #4984. It has been that way for over 30 years. Man I wish I was up there to give you some free help sorting parts. Getting eyes and hands on would be payment enough. What book are you...

    Somebody told me that scrap is $64 a ton out here. I don't know if that is true. If it is, you should charge the guy $30 for all this if you have to do the work. :grin:

    I wish there was a way to save that transmission too.

    I need to put this in our parts list. Definitely a good find!! What do we call that bearing? Spring assembly bearing/cone?

    Are you still hauling Goose around or did you fix the transmission already?

    I am still fighting mine a little. All of them were rebuilt again last July and only one of the 6 wheels is still leaking. I blocked off the brake line going to that wheel until I can have a chance to tear it open again. Work and other things have not let me do the things I want to do lately. A...

    Nice score on the parts! Those are the 1-1/4 wheel cylinders. They look exactly like what came off my truck. Is the piston that the wheel cylinder cup goes on two pieces like the one on the right?

    I don't want anymore. Just looking for parts. Mainly the hard to get down here stuff like heaters, intake/exhaust manifolds, etc.

    I sure wish we could find stuff like that down here.

    They don't even make that big of a bang. We always had a lot of them that were duds when I was in the service. Some didn't open that far even when they did fire. I wouldn't worry about that one hurting anyone, but make your own decision. That is just me.

    Just don't chew on it or hit the primer with anything while you are holding it in your hand and you will be fine. There is little to no chance it will go off by itself.
