Nice! I did a parade last week, but the generator for the lights quit just as we started moving out of the staging area. What are you using as a power source?

My understanding is that you can't put m51 sheetmetAL on an m817 because the engine is longer. Unless, I suppose, if they also swapped in the multifuel.

Looks good. Good luck on the recovery.

That's pretty sweet. What size are those tires?

I got a chance to go down yesterday. Due to weather and other complications, I wasn't able to take my truck, but I did get to meet some nice folks. Had a good time. Got to tag along on a trail ride. I was impressed with what it could do. Thanks to everyone for making me feel welcome. Hope...

I agree. Looks like what I just took out of my m51. I found a combination of water, algea, and the oil I had tried to run (its the multifuel) mixed in with the diesel. I drained the tank, tried to rinse with some fresh fuel, and replaced all the filters. Only running diesel from here out.

Welcome from next door in Kansas.

I thought it was only the hemmtt wheels that required longer studs? Or am I wrong?

Welcome from Kansas. And there's no reason to replace motorcycles, just add on to the fleet.

Mine(52 mack m51a2) was having trouble maintaining over 40 mph, then started to cut out on takeoff. Found water in the system. Draining tanks and swapping filters should hopefully do the trick. Not to hijack, but while changing the primary filter on mine yesterday, I noticed that the filter...

One thing you may run into is that yoy may need to swap the front mounting flanges for the bed subframe over from the other one.

You might look into an inline fuel pressure regulator. I have one on an old bobcat because it would push fuel past the float. Got mine at oriellys. Has a dial adjustent to set the pressure.

Congratulations. It is a rare opportunity to relive the past. Hopefully she will be up and running soon.

Oops, looks like I missed your last post before I replied. Congrats on getting it home. Looking forward to pics and "the rest of the story".

I had an 82 chevy swb with 33s on it and a dempco car dolly. It did not fit forward. Did not try backwards. Granted, the car haulers may be different sizes, don't know. If you have, or have anybody you can borrow from, a set of later model (88-98, or such) stock wheels and tires might help...

Well, I wouldn't call it ugly. But, then again, I guess I have a soft spot for the rough ones and oddballs. Welcome back.

Thanks. I was doing a "quick and dirty" rattle can job for now so that it was one color at least. Used some posterboard. I intend to redo it the right way next summer. I'll probably hit you up when it's time for that.

I have one of those I used to pull my rear duals when rebuilding the wheel cylinder. It seemed to hold up fine with no issues/damage for me. And that's with my 340 pound butt cranking on a 4-5 foot cheater pipe while doing it. The first go round you pull the hex nuts off, allowing the outer...

Good luck. Hollar if you need anything.

Thanks everyone for the help. Here's what I found. TB 746-93-1 is from 1964. It has the markings on the hood and white stars on the hood and doors, etc. TB 43-2090 was from 1976 and superceded TB 746-93-1. It covers the camo patterned paint. Very helpful, almost a paint by numbers diagram.
