Great time, great food, good beer, awesome fire, old and new friends, what else is there? [thumbzup] :beer:

Again, I didn't notice the date of the original post. At least we can all take comfort in the fact that we are supporting the Chinese Military, even if not our own! :roll:

Wish you were closer, I'm always looking for trucks or parts!

With a backwards shift pattern, the transmission is likely from a CCKW, not foreign. The stock transfer case is a single speed, low range was in the hydramatic trans. Don't know what you're lookin' to do with the parts, but the GMC's are a whole different animal than the M35.

Gunfreak, your fuel pedal was done with Gilespie 24087. Just sayin'!2cents

I've never had a problem with Gilespie paints or Rapco. A couple minutes in the paint shaker and you're good to go!

If I have a halfway decent section of lawn I just park another truck on it and that usually solves the problem.

Welcome Zach! When you get right down to it, there aint none of us quite right! :cookoo:

Yeah, I was watching the radar and it didn't look good. Hope today clears up!

Looks like I won't be making it this year. aua Hope you guys have a great time!

nopicsCould be either of the above!

Those bearing numbers should be the same for the M39 and M800 series trucks. Just did my front axle and the best price I found for the bearings was thru the local Peterbilt dealer route man. Got the seals and silicone boots from A1 Army surplus.

Sorry to hear, I'm at a loss for words....

It depends on what mack engine he's selling, but if you're up to the work, I'd say do the full swap. The multifuel can't even come close to touching a mack for power, torque, and longevity. Quite a few of the old macks had straight 5 speeds in them and would lug all day long with no problems.

I'd like to do it just to piss off all the people hacking up good trucks!

If it was a display piece, why did they bother changing engines? And why would you say it has no engine? Does it run? What do you plan to use it for? If it's just a toy, there's not really a whole lot of difference between the deuce and 5 ton engines. If the equipment is in good shape, I'd say...
