Does anyone have any close up photos of the extension for the convoy lights? I think I have all the parts except the extensions. Unless someone has a pair for sale I am going to have to fab up a set, and some photos would be big help since I have never actually seen a setup on a truck, except...
David:
I had a look at the photos you shared with me, all of them are all green, but this guy was absolutely sure they were black, and that one of the first things they did was to paint everything OD!

What was the original color(number) of the M543 wrecker? A local vet. told me he remembers the new wreckers arriving with everything below the body in a dull black, except the axles?

Robert: Do you have any photos of the finished product, I am going to have the same thing done to a Large Towbar set.

I picked up a M105 a week ago with my son's Montero(no taller than a Jeep), no problem at all, looked a little funny, so low in the front but ran fine. I think I have a photo, will post later.

Since I have a NOS set of chain clamps courtesy of Frank, I want to see if anyone wants to trade a very good set of Chain clamps (my old ones) for a set of the two pin towbar adapters as show in the photo below?

The flexible fuel line leading to the dual fuel filters on my Multifuel engine is leaking. Are replacements available or do I just take it off an have a line made??

PS: A little water damage, but all there and usable
What I was concerned with were the engine bolt-ons, like starters, fuel injector pumps, manifolds, etc. I know where there are a couple of 5 tons (with multi-fuel engines)going to the junk yard for scrap, so is it worth it for me to spend the time removing misc. parts? Will I be able to use...
If a 5 ton has a multifuel engine in it does the make of the engine matter are all parts interchangable regardless of manufacturer? Say for injector pumps all same, same??

Different Combo
I tool a dozen or so shots of different combos of tracks and trailers and specialty trucks with trailers on flat beds this one of the more interesting combos.
