No, just roll the windows down. Fold windshield.

Air is slowly making its way past the ice occlusion and/or the occlusion has possibly partially cleared.

Here's my best guess - you've got pockets of moisture throughout the system. It's frozen. This may trap high pressure air in the spring brakes not allowing them to deploy, or it may just block the moving parts from moving. On the service side, you also have pockets of moisture. This prevents...

Your Original Post Said 30 degrees, and i was completely at a loss for what would cause this . 20 degrees changes the equation completely. They're frozen...

I'm half nuts and frequently take chances with making it home with risky auction trucks. This isn't a risky auction truck. It's a dead truck. I wouldn't consider trying to drive it. Budget whatever simp's fees are into the plans.

I defy you to find a *worse* choice than the 6.2, lol. These things should have had a 4bt or something similar, from the get go. Similar power, and ten times the life expectancy.

Tried to start it a couple of days ago at 6*. It cycled the glowplugs, then gave one halfhearted crank and clicked at me. I gave up. Today, having not charged the batteries and having not done anything to it, I tried again. It cycled the glowplugs and started easily on the first crank...

Tires?

I have the same problem. Despite showing an accurate location for me, it seems to base distance off of some place in IL. Disregard distance information. Pay attention to where they say the item is located.

What's your timeline for starting the project?

I can't think of a way for CTIS to interfere with the transmission. Presume you have a transmission problem. I'd have thought maybe the fluid was cold, but you said you got it warm so that rules that out. The wreckers are heavy, and go through transmissions faster than the cargo variants.

The most cost effective wheels will be the two piece steel LMTV wheels. They'll be a direct bolt on to your 5ton. You'll need additional lugnuts - 20 left and 20 right. Simp5782 has the wheels.

395s on a 939series cargo truck.

395s are 45" or so. 14.00R20 are 47-48". In today's market, you'll pay more for 14''s than you will for 16's and then in a year or two when you need one you won't be able to find it. 14s are no longer in use by the military. If converting a 5ton to super singles 395s and 16''s are really the...

I agree with this. Or just go 395s. Readily available, and about half the cost of 16's. 14's are getting scarce and expensive.

11.00R20 16.00R20 and 395's...

Unknown auction truck. Certain to have dead batteries. Unknown what else may or may not work. Wrecker lights give me a certainty of having adequate lighting. Legal/illegal doesn't come into it. It's just the right thing to do. Edit removed extraneous material

I speculate that the ladder from an M1082 or M109 may fit the bill.

Emphatically this...
