Well,in short,the M543A1 will have a Mack engine,thus having NO power supply for the intank pump on the rear harness.If you got the harness for an A2 then you have the correct one for your truck FT.

Hmm,evidently the speedo isn't as far off as I thought.

Thanks all for the kind words but,that's what this hobby is all about,Keeping em Rolling!!. Trip report, Well I drove the M54A1 down with the 105 in tow(my LAST 105 BTW) to pick up the M211 that Rob owned. The trip down (and back) was un eventful. About 500 miles round trip,avg speed of 50...

It won't lift 20 tons,it will lift 10,000 lbs with the use of the outriggers at minimum boom length(retracted). It will handle 20,000 lbs directly over the rear with the boom braces connected to the wrecker bed. If you try and lift 20 tons,you'll turn the truck over or bend the boom.

Ok folks,I'm moving the Hickory meeting for Feb to the third Sat instead of the second,as not to interfere with St. Valentines day.So the Hickory meeting will be held on Sat Feb 21st, same time,same place.

Brian, Are you gonna drive the Deuce down to pick em up,or take your pickup? If you need any help we can take the dually and I have a gasoline portable air compressor and a 1 inch drive impact gun.

Bruce, I have the whole exhaust(stack to flexpipe )that I can bring to Aberdeen if needed,they are take offs but in decent shape with no rust through.

Just a bump to the top

If I remember right,I purchased my M816 in the summer of 2002,but it was surplussed out in 2000 if I read the SF97 correctly. it was a 1973 AMGeneral.

Judging by the lack of air cleaner,I would say a M51 powered by a Continental R6602 gasoline engine. Price anywhere between $0 and $6000 if it runs and drives.

Thanks Bigbee,I didn't have any pics without copying one outta DDoyles Standard Catalog. BTW,If you spot one the difference in the models that can be noticed quickly are the earlier models have a body taller than the cab,spotlights on either side of the cab,and no drivers side "door" mounted...

Hey Folks, I'm looking for a CMU3 or 5 for my collection,preferably on the East coast. It doesn't have to be running,but would prefer it had most of the specalized components(t-case pto,welder/generator,air compressor). either PM me here or E-mail me at M4A4@aol.com. Thanks,Brandon

This appears to be the same turbo that scooter01922 has on his truck,definetly not a whistler!!

I'm right along I-40 in North Carolina if you're going that way,Just off exit 106. Holler if you need any help.

Does anyone have the Gage B7950168 and Tool C7950171 used to adjust the throttle valve lever on the GMC Hydramatic that I could borrow for a while? I would pay shipping to and from location,trying to get this M211 shifting properly.Thanks.
