    816 vs 936A2

    Having owned both, I would chose the 936 hands down over the M816. HOWEVER, this is strictly from a coolness and more modern truck factor. The M936A2 (I have a thread on it) I am putting back together right now is a female dog of trying to find parts for. NO ONE who deals with your typical...

    My new M936A2 project (update)

    Did some work yesterday. Got the radiator back from the shop and installed it. Went back with all brand new cad plated grade 8 fine thread bolts. Started her up and it ran like a charm. I couldn't get it warm enough to get the fan running. After 30 minutes of running at idle I could still...

    Wanna Buy a M416 or M100

    I have a Marine Corps M416 trailer. Solid but needs a good sand blasting and go thru. PM me if that is something you are looking for.

    Halftrack identification needed

    That crane is not even close to being original to that halftrack. The halftrack could be any one of many variants, however, that crane looks to be from a 2 1/2 ton wrecker truck. Definetly was not part of the halftrack. The front winch on the halftrack is original though (at least most of it).

    Man, I can't believe that the starter that I sent you actually worked! Just kidding.:roll:

    My BIG M925A2 Project Truck Is Home

    Took awhile but finally tracked down the source of new radiators. I spoke with the sales engineer Rick Hite at Indiana Heat Trandfer Co. who bought out McCord Heat Transfer Co. from Cummins. They are currently filling orders for the Military (they also provide the radiators for the Humves) and...

    Chris, Does your tranny still have the PTO attached on the side. If so do you have any pictures of it so I could see how some of the lines and cables are attached.

    My new M936A2 project (update)

    Just to let you know also, these A2 radiators aren’t laying around at your local radiator shop. I dropped mine off today at lunch and the guy said it was going to be about $175 to boil, fix/repair, and paint mine (I was expecting $500). He said it looked like an odd radiator and when he saw...

    My new M936A2 project (update)

    I also forgot to mention that the truck built air pressure and filled the tanks up rather quickly and the brakes seem to work fine. For the remainder of the day, I did what you suggested Chris and simply hooked the air compressor to the primary air tank on the truck and built up pressure by...

    My new M936A2 project (update)

    What a weekend. I finally got the truck to run off its own fuel tanks. Was easier than I thought. I simply added a quick release air fitting to the vent fitting on the fuel tank and hooked up the pan-cake compressor to it and applied pressure. It flushed out the line and quickly had fuel...

    Sounds Great Chris, I myself had a slight set back which I will post on my M936 thread. Sounds like you worked your a s s off.
