Hi guys, I know this isn’t the place to list things, So I’m letting you know I’m putting an ad up in classifieds for 5 ton parts. Still working on the old girl. Trying to clean rust from the one tank, installing engine block heater, fluid and filter change, one brake line needs fixed, couple...
Happy Veterans Day to all the Veterans on here
I’m sorry day late. Well I started out today removing my rear electrical harness from my parts truck, and everything was going good until I got to the trailer plug hole. The hole was just a smidge too small for the gold threaded cap to fit through ...
That’s nasty. I’m getting ready to do all my fluid changes to the 818 after I get my exhaust put back on muffler and lower pip were shot tip was good lol. I peaked in my tanks not sure what’s in it but it’s getting drained and new fuel being added and fixing a smashed fuel line. Along with PS...
The one in the garage runs the other I bought for the winch it has the engine in it but is missing the injector pump and supposedly won’t turn over. But it has more options than the running one lol. So I might be moving some of those options over we will see.
The trucks were delivered this AM. Now it’s time to work first thing I’m going is draining the fuel and replacing with fresh. I will have questions so hopefully you can guys will help.
Hey guys question I read the TM on this part, But it dosent specify. Wheel cap nuts it says 450-500lb ok then second wheel and lock nuts but can’t find that torque spec im assuming 450-500. Am I correct

So I was able to get both M818’S , I should get them next month. One is a parts truck I bought for the winch, was told the injection pump was removed by the military so it might run remain to be seen. I’m sure this topic was covered before how difficult is it to swap to super singles. Do I need...
I can’t seem to find any info on TMS about towing a vehicle with another one maybe I’m in the wrong forum. But I did get a price for both M818 which is reasonable. But the shipping was not so. I have a military tow bar that I could flat tow them. But not sure about brakes and lights on the non...
Thank you for the replies I was thinking about changing the lines hard and rubber and any leaking wheel cylinder. And if necessary replacing the master cylinder and air pack. So decision time he told me I could have the winch off another truck if I helped him. I guess it’s more involved then...
Hi guys. I’m kinda stuck with a decision. I went today to look at a few 5 ton 800 series trucks. I’ve had a 900 series before. They gentlemen extremely nice was telling me if it was up to him he would buy a 900 series over the 800 basically the biggest deciding factor was the brake’s being only...
