Good job, nothing like an easy fix.

Good job, I had to replace the w/s skin on my 42 MB as well, not too bad of a job just be sure to purchase a good quality replacement.

Its been a long road getting this winch project finished and today was the day. After work my son and I spooled on the new winch cable, at 150' it takes a while, that and keeping it tight and even. I know the chain wrap looks a bit unruly but it frees up the tow shackles. The cable specs for...

One cheap way to check fuel supply/pressure is to disconnect the return line on the drivers side tank, attach a piece of rubber fuel hose over the end and place the hose in a container. Start the engine and you should have a high pressure stream of fuel if its working properly. If the stream...

There is a good trouble shooting guide near the front in the -20 for the M561 for the turn signals. I converted mine to solid state, simple process and is outlined in the -20 manual, you will need a turn signal, flasher and harness. All the solid state parts are common to the M series trucks...

My brother had one of those, I'll check with him to see id he has anything left over.

Kudos to Dozerman51 who voted for his competition a true gentleman.

That is the ballast resistor for the glow plug system, drops 24v to 12v when the glow plug relay in energized, looks like it's getting hot at that connection.

Today's project was installing the M792 folding step on the tailgate. These only left the factory on the M792 ambulance version for ease of patient access. I always try and offer the most correct information I can here so others can use the information on their restoration. So I contacted...

No generator needed, draws up to 40A @ 24VDC, I would have the engine running during use. The GRC-106 was pretty munch phased out by the 90's.

Good job, adapt-improvise-overcome !

Water pump replacement was the project this weekend. You can see on the old pump the trail of crud coming out the weep hole, been that way since I got it. Getting the old pump out is quite a chore, the two back bolts are only reachable after you unbolt the motor mount bracket. I thought the...

Steps down 24v to 12v while keeping the battery voltage balanced.

I think The Old Grouch Military surplus in NC had some scrap M1010's.

I proudly vote for my brothers M38, willy10. It was a frame off restoration with no detail over looked, several years in the making. When not involved in parades, veterans activities or rallies it sits in the local museum so all can appreciate it, good job!.

SECO in GA.

First one in a SINCGARS mounting base, second is a DAGR mount(GPS), I also see a GPS antenna down next to the breaker box. Not sure about the third bracket, the GRC-142 shelter I had also shared AC/DC power, just the way they did it.

Looks great.

Interesting non standard winch bracket/front bumper.

Original style exhaust pipe/tip installed today, about an hour project. I had the exhaust tip for a while, stumbled on a vendor who had 150+ of them, also nice having the hardware kit with the hanger and bolts. The pipes finally appeared to be able to finish the job. Next project inbound....
