TM number confusion
Artisan / Doghead
This is the TM index from S/S TM Forum ; No -24P so I have no idea what is on pge 120 yet Eric's first pic says - 24 at the top...
Eric - I'd gone through -20 and nothing other than the pic I first put up (excluding my ** addition).
So I am still...
- 24 TM...? That is not a TM available on this site is it? Didn't see that pic. Do you have the page with the numbers detailed???
Thanks.
Ron - my next step was to go newer and check the 900's but going back is also a great idea - thanks.
Turbo - yes, that'd be great, what I'd need is...
Yup - I was thinking this would be a great mod for the same reason beyond my "correct" resto need...
This is what I have / need help with. Thanks.
NB. This is specifically not in the "hot rodding" thread (see post #1 - ** ).
I'm installing an 'Air Brake Hand Control Lever' to my 816 and need assistance from 'tractor' owners on plumbing and connection. M818/819... 900 series or CCC owners.
TM's (800 series) do not show schematic of lines or hookup of this hand valve. (Guess who I PM'd just to make sure!) All...
Subject to the weight/friction of your "small junk", the tensioner is not necessarily needed... The level wind should work with a load on the hook. The tensioner is there to apply a false load to the cable when rewinding the winch when no load is being pulled - ie., respooling after work is...
I should have said - not mentioned in the operators/maintenance TM's that I have read on this forum or have in hard cover.... Not telling you what I "think" I should have said!!!!
But thanks...
Just got a set of 3 spreader bars #5 for the cupola soft top hoops (#6).
These things are not shown in the Operators TM's and are relatively rare. Getting lost with the soft tops I guess.
Pretty simple in construction, a turned plug welded into tube.
I know JT (Jatonka) is getting soft tops...
REALLY! You have all this fabrication with new cabs and stuff and stuff and more stuff..... I think jealousy of a little computor graphic time is limited to you alone!!!
... but I am glad to assist with "the visuals"... :-D If you need 'visualising' with more parts of your truck - try - if...
9/16" .... ?
How did you measure that - across the smallest size (flats) or the largest size:
.. V
.OO
OOO smallest measurement (and correct way to measure cable)
.OO
.. ^
or
... OO
>|OOO|< largest measurement
... OO
I think you may have 1/2".....
Scottie - I don't know a lot about Gar Wood winches but purely based upon the fairlead, it looks like a dozer rear winch setup though that angle iron behind the drum wouldn't be there for a dozer.
You could try the Historic Military Vehicle Forum, though it is mainly a British site, that's...
Kind of difficult to get the scale and proportion right with available pics but I think above fender real estate is going to be sucked up by spare on one side and 'breathing' on other side.
Right or Left spare subject to plumbing.
Could put the spare on the roof inplace of 50 cal ring...
Dave - Soni is on the money for 'ramp over', HOWEVER, if your trail rises after the vertical wall then that would lift the belly over the wall.
There is a thread on loading a step deck trailer w/o ramps - so the finite answer, on the flat, will be what ever clearance you have when the tyres...
Will... my 2c :-
ok - so you aren't out any $$$ - remember this point...
seems more sentimental than usefull at this point...
Many holes - not just one so probably other holes ready to blow through - complete bottom could be 'thinned' by corosion...
sounds like chemical...
Soni - I "see" your Prarie engine and raise you a Union Pacific "Big Boy" (4-8-8-4), so unless you have a Bayer Garratt (4-8-4 4-8-4) to trump me - I win!!!
OK - now back to fantastic truck building...
Thanks for the heads up on the inverter, however the revues of this product are not 100% +ve....... 5:2 fore/against.
Just thought I'd add this incase people jumped without reading the revues.
I'm going with a small car alternator...
