You have an interesting issue with this one replacing the pan gasket is a good place to start. Since its only leaking when underway and under a load my first thought is the Turbo oil lines, if you just sitting running the engine your building no pressure hence no leaks. The amount of oil you...
THIS is one the the coolest things I have seen in a LONG time!! I am a huge Tatra fan and own a 939 series truck melding these two together has got to obviously produce a BIG winner ! Love the truck and cannot wait to hear more!

Joeblack congrats on joining the UNIMOG CLUB! There are a few of us odd balls here but always remember WE have extremely good taste in REAL trucks! I had a 404 for a couple years and my truck did not have that electric fuel pump on it at all, in fact I have never seen a setup like that? As...
If you have an electric or air operated grease gun USE THAT ONE!!! This is going to take you a bit of time make sure you have the Lube order so you dont miss any!
I was at my warehouse for some other stuff and my 5 ton hadnt been started in 2 years I had my charger sitting there but thought I would give it a try before I put the charger on, let it crank over for 5 seconds stopped for a bit then tried again and about 5 seconds into the 2nd crank she fired...
When I painted my deuce I wanted a very flat OD Green thinking that this would best match the original Military paint, the painter fellow called me about the paint I had picked out to discuss just how FLAT it really was, it took me about 2 seconds of looking at it and feeling it to see it was...
Hello Thor and welcome to the hobby and congrats on your 151 that should be a fun vehicle to be driving around in! If I may make one suggestion for to you concerning this vehicle and that is to take a look at this site there is and area call the Tms (technical manuals) its free and there is so...
I can tell you its got a 230 CI flat head 6 in it obviously Chrysler corp. Great engine used in more applications than I ever dreamed possible. It was a US Military vehicle can you find a TM on the vehicle, then go from there?

Jeff your a lucky man since the FLU 419 was used in the US Military there should be TMs available that will tell you everything you ever dreamed of!

James are you a vendor for Power Wagon parts? I ask because I am going to need all the body mounts for a 50 B2 and if I can order them from a fellow member I would be interested.
PM me if so.
Karl
Post a pic of your truck so we can see the paint then we can tell you what the color camo your talking about and if we know that then we can tell you what you need and very potentially where to buy it.

Congrats on your new Deuce it looks like a pretty clean truck! I dont know if this is your first Military truck but like was said get the TMs they will become your savior in the future! Deuces and wives, I can tell you one of the things that helps to get the female members over to our side is...
It seems the days of finding new rebuilt engines in the can are all but over it seemed the general price for one of these used to be around 3K it was a pretty good deal. Since it seems those days are gone rebuilding the engine is a pretty safe option and with doing a rebuild you know exactly...
Good Looking truck and with the 109 your just about unlimited on what you can do with that rig! Congrats it looks like a beauty!
Enjoy the site!

I am guessing all of us talked to Dan at one time or another he was always extremely good about offering opinions and suggestions when I was ordering parts for my M37, very sad new indeed!
RIP Dan and my sincerest condolences to family and friends!

Sorry to hear about your fuel leaking as soon as I saw your post I already knew what it was, the plenum heater on the Deuce is one of the greatest cold start assist systems I have ever worked with but it will require attention once in awhile, like your seeing. If you live in a warm environment...
