Andy & James,
I was wanting to bid on the trailers at Hooks also. The lady from GL said they are approx 7 miles off base at a remote location and didn't seem inclined about stacking them as I was looking to purchase 2 also. I hope you can find somebody thats willing to help. Good deal on the...
Why take something so simple and make it overly complex with a Duramax? For conversion sake take a B series Cummins with a P7100 pump and slap on bigger tires to get the Cummins to the sweet spot RPM range on the highway. The B series will run without batteries unlike a common rail diesel...
snatch it up!
Sounds like a decent truck. With 60k miles on the odometer and 1,200 hours that averages right at 50mph which is a pretty smokin fast average for an M35! One of the gauges were most likely replaced as most MV's average around 20-25mph when you divide miles and hours. I've...
Unhook the fuel line right at the outlet of the fuel filter and put thefuel line in a gallon of clean diesel fuel. Truck should start right up and idle smoothly. As others have mentioned a crack in a fuel line or bad selector valve can cause hard starting, poor throttle response and irregular...
I'll try to get some pics tomorrow
Hey Matthew! If anybody wants to race Matthew's M35- they will loose!
Looking forward to catching up with you and Tony next time in Peoria. I'll be there early January as we just sold Peoria Disposal 12 trucks for the Peoria contract which starts Jan 1...
Thanks RWoods for the info. Looking forward to see your attachment
Scott- I'm hoping for the best! I'm 99% sure it's going to be cold and rainy like most of the Riply pickups!
We are picking up an M35a3 tomorrow (I know, I know I make fun of them but had to try one for the prices they have been bringing)
Assuming that a few of the tires will be flat and the possiblity that the central air inflation doesn't work how do you manually inflate the tires? Do they have...
H1's
I've always kept a close eye on the civilian H1 prices as they seem like a neat vehicle to own. The 6.5 ltr Chevy diesel scares the heck out of me though. I know some will state that they have 300k on theirs with no issues but the majority of the ones I have seen have replaced motors...
looking good!
Bob,
Thanks for the compliments and for the business. We look forward to seeing updates you do to your truck. And as Doug mentioned we do need to get a convoy put together sometime as that would be a blast. Thanks again,
Andy
Thanks again!!!!
Thanks guys! I've printed your responses off so I have all of the filter #'s. Call me a redneck but I'm kind of hoping the gen set is obnoxious loud. I have one 3KW mil gen set with the Yanmar diesel and really love it. My dad and I must have watched that Yanmar run for 5...
I recently purchased a 5KW Industrial Acquistics Model MEP-002AAS 5KW 60HZ diesel engine gen set off GL to have as backup power. I'm not familiar with these at all does anyone know what make/model diesel engine is in these for power? Do these have their own batteries for starting? Do they...
Thanks
Scott,
Thanks again for business and for all the compliments from this thread! We are going to miss having your truck around to look at!
Just in case any of you are somewhat local or like to make weekend trips there is a REALLY nice truck pull coming up next weekend in our area...
website? what website??
Our website is uh, yeah we'll leave it at that. Actually we just bought a new computer and I'll be updating the site on my own with my computer savvy neighbors help. I'm going to get video's of a C turbo, D turbo and non-turbo M35's all going through the gears to show...
