    RE: Another thing you can do with A/W crane mounted on a m81 Push Bar :cookoo: Excuse my ignorance, all we did was use the cab control to extend the boom. I assumed that when the pins were pulled that it would just shoot out further..... Wait a second...does this have anything to do with...

    Local Truck Show Pics

    Attached are some photos of the previous weekends joint ATHS/LIAPA show out at the Farm Museum. The M819 has already come in handy. We loaded my busted up Cletrac EHG into the Deuce to sell it. And we delivered it to someone at the end of the day. (I'm really looking for a OC-46w/loader...

    Wreckerman's diabolic hitch conversion invention

    Hey Wreckerman. Nice Job. It doesn't look so bad. If you go to any rental place they use adapters all the time and even those have alot of slop.

    MV Insurance in NJ .... grrrrrrr!!!!

    Update: Just got off the horn and my bro says that the Bronze will not accept Photographs, Pencil tracings, etc. They want to see the truck in person to verify the number. :? That should be fun. FYI: The County Police Impound/Training Facility is a former BOMARC/Nike?Ajax Missle base...

    MV Insurance in NJ .... grrrrrrr!!!!

    As recommended by Chris S. and others (thank you), My brother went with Gulfway historical insurance and it was $290 a year for his M819. No problems, no hassles, and the only restriction is "not to be used as daily transportation." you can even haul stuff. I would also like to say that they...

    NHC250 starter lock-out switch

    I'm guessing that it prevents the engine being started if there is low or no oil in the crankcase.

    Old vs. New M725 dataplate - which do you like?

    I would clean the original one and apply the dullest clear coat to protect it. The repro does look cartoonish.

    Finished painting my cab Sunday

    Those pics show the result of alot of hard work & patience. Its nice to see good work come from someone who doesn't have the "perfect shop" to work in. I'm so used to working outside that I feel claustraphobic if working on something in my small barn. I would need a blimp hangar to feel like...

    Magnetic oil drain plug

    Plastic or nylon is common on cars and trucks. Copper is prevalent when dia. of the plug and torque increases. The copper washer has greater durability and is less prone to crack. Exhaust manifold or header gaskets are copper and seal very nicely because they squish.

    Magnetic oil drain plug

    I also never noticed. I'm pretty consistant about cleaning the plug threads before replacement on all vehicles and didn't recall a pile of filings on the plug. hmmm That copper washer looks quite busted up.

    The diversity of the vehicle types shown is amazing. It is very nice to see you guys can still have fun over there. You should rescue some Panthers, Tigers, and Leopards from the local "zoo." :wink: I see a Leopard has escaped and is running around but...where's the turret? Is that wrecker...
