I thought I saw in the manual there was an electrical connection for 120V use. But, I might be mistaken as I don't know a lot about these heaters. I will do as you suggested. Thanks!

Does anyone know where I can find the 120V electrical connection for an H140 Choctaw heater? I recently acquired it, and I'd like to test it out. I can obviously cut the cable and splice something in, but I'd prefer to find the correct cable. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Sorry to co-opt the OP...but...I cannot provide any substantive response, but DOES ANYONE have the A/C plug? I have the same heater...but no 120V connection.

Yes, I was thinking of the T831s.

Rich, Firestone made some really nice looking 1100s for the military. I've only had them on one truck. Very aggressive tread pattern. I forget the model number, though.

Joe and Max are in my prayers. I am very sorry to hear this.

I have seen the air scoop mounted facing down as in the second picture, but I don't think it is correct. I have installed a few heater kits, and I don't recall that in the instructions. The deuce in the background shows the air scoop in the proper mounting direction from what I have read...

...and, no, he did not pass away from mixing gas into his diesel! :)

Yes. Joe Young from NJ (RIP), a long time deuce dealer, told me he used to do it back before they had winter and summer blend fuels. He was a fuel oil distributor. I don't recall if he ever told me the formula for correctly doing it, and I never thought of doing it given the winter fuels that...

I use Power Service diesel fuel conditioner mostly, but I've also used Howes. I have had good service from them. I actually use that stuff all year around. The biggest thing I'd caution you (and everyone) about is making sure you burn through your summer blend fuel before it gets really cold...

I don't believe the actual wrecker bodies were different between the M936s (other than the spare tire location...1100 vs. 1400). It is not like the differences between the M62s and M543s.

The dead giveaway from this pic is the 1100x20 Goodyear G177 radial tire mounted on the body.

Kudos. That is a tough install from what I've heard.

I believe CARNAC also acquired an M35A2 from a unit with which he served.

That is the mounting location I've had previously! Again, only a few M939 series cargos I've owned had the pioneer rack.

You can always convert it to a turbo engine. Several of my non-turbo trucks were converted to turbo. No noticeable difference in performance in any way from the factory turbo trucks. Off the top of my head, I had an M275A2, M109A3, and M35A2 converted to turbo. I believe I can make out a...

I'll second what NDT said. Those issues look fixable to me. I've seen plenty of repairs like the one near your hinge where the military just welded a patch on top of the sheet metal. When done neatly, I think it looks fine.

Unless there is a reason for it, I'd suggest listing them separately. You will most likely get more and sell them more quickly.

I no longer own one of those trucks, but I believe there were straps on both sides. I do know that I have had trucks with straps on one side only so maybe that is the way they came? I don't fully remember, but I know I've also had trucks with straps on both sides. With that said, I never used...
