Very interesting indeed. Firstly, click on this link and look at the PDF titled M54A1WW. https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/carnacs-historical-vin-info-thread.193055/post-2258506 Looking at the formats of the VIN numbers there (only 3), we can surmise that the 725 in your VIN is just the...
Correct, M725 is the 60s Jeep with ambulance body. Look (extremely close) at your left frame rail between the front axle bumper forward. SN should be stamped there albeit very lightly. Don't sand too heavy, they might disappear. Post those up and we might be able to decipher it. Shoot, what...
I think if mine ever checks out, I'll do the 6.0 LS. Super dependable, last a good long time and swap prices are reasonable. They are also reasonably efficient. We have mountains here. 6.2 + mountain = s l o w.
Use one of those food savers that suction out the bag and leave an oxygen absorber in there. I think the prepper wing of civilization might have an answer. As for me, I keep all that stuff in a drum of bacon grease. <----Satire for those who can't see it.
Bad thing about ENDTs is that they have a narrow powerband. The good thing about ENDTs is that they have a powerband. Your truck sure looks like and M54 or the like converted to a tractor. Foot longer wheelbase. I think it's great looking. Member AMGENERAL was a thermadyne enthusiast, he...
LOL, I was searching for that TM. I knew I had it, found it on a CD. I have several old Dept. of the Army TM CDs. After finding it I see that I am late to the game. LOL
Okay, I've done some searching. Found a few threads, some with dead links. On an M51A2 tipper, I am struggling to find the VIN stamped on the frame. The few threads I've reviewed have been pretty consistent showing it on the left frame between the bump stop and steering box. A few stated that...
Overkill is good. You will never complain about 200A. I like your shop. It looks snug but comfortable. Like mine, if you need to remove axle shafts, something has to get out of the way.
If you can read WIX from the outside, someone converted it to a spin on. When in doubt, post up a pic so we can decipher what you have.
Edit, check out this link! Its a spin on conversion (a good one) and it sports the same part number.

When I looked at Jumbo, Bruce Kubu's restored M125, I was amazed at the size. David, when you get the cab out, take pics of the steering box. My memory is faint but it looked like the size of a small block chevy.
It's a carpenters trailer and the seller knew what he was talking about. It was a radial arm saw IIRC, a big one. The double stroke jacks are odd but if yours works it's probably worth $300, maybe $325! Joking, its worth what someone will pay. I lost out on one Wayne Harris had back in the...
