I'm looking at buying a back up transfer case for my M939A1/A2 trucks. I'm looking at a Rockwell Mod#1130 but have been told the Mod #1138 is the right one. The Mod #1130 looks correct. Anyone confirm which is correct? Thanks guys.
I've also seen some shady bidding going on by a bidder that hits all the high value auction materials. Case in point were basically 10 NOS 8X8X6' shipping containers out of Herlong with a late "reserve" imposed by GL. This shady bidder managed to hit all of the containers for $450 "reserve not...
You certainly demonstrate more than just backyard wrenching experience. Very nice work brother! So this mod will not work for a M939 with 14R20 singles as the hubs are flipped? I took my M936A1 wrecker out for a run yesterday pulling a few hills. On return as I normally do, I shot my IR gun on...
Not true in the M939 series trucks. Many USMC and Navy Seabee M939 trucks to include M931, M931A1 & M931A2 truck-tractors have locking differentials. I have a M931A1 w/o anti-lock brakes, with fording kit and lockers.
Take a infra-red laser gun with you and shoot temps on critical components like u-joints, axle hups, diffs, tires, etc. Might just alert you early to possible failure...:tigger:
Vintage Iron, dang, how about a web page for those of us who don't to FB? I'm trying to talk a guy out of his complete NTC 400 Big Cam for my M936A1 future project, he's pretty proud of it right now...:-0(
The gauges in these trucks are inherently in error, a infrared laser gun is your friend. Shoot the various components for an accurate temperature read.
I have a shot at acquisition of FMTV wheels mounted with NOS Michelin XZL 395X85RX20 tires. I have a M936A1 with Combat wheels mounted with 14RX20 Michelin XL's that are starting to show sidewall cracking. Has anyone swapped out Combat rims and 14R20's and downsized to the 395X85RX20's on FMTV...
Update, neither M35A2-AZ or I could find an IP filter screen in our NHC250 VS wrecker IP's. After cleaning my fuel tank, changing the large driver side fuel filter, the hard diesel knock resolved itself. The motor starts immediately but has a lag on run up. The original fuel filter can was badly...
My 2 cents, be careful what your asking for. I have a an A1 wrecker, 2 A1 and one A2 tractors. with dual tanks ,unless your drving the heck out of these trucks and/or keeps the tanks full to prevent moisture condensation, dual tanks are just a liabilty on a hobby MV. Commercial trucks dual tank...
