New owner of a M936

[grizcty]

It has been a long time, since I last posted.
Lost years of info, when my old computer died.
I am still on dial up, and not very forum savvy.
So go easy on me.

I just bought a M936 Wrecker from G.L.
Operated one years ago, but never owned one before.
I have not physically seen it yet.

The site Admin. stated it ran fine.
But knows it has a leaking pet cock on it.
He said that some AK state employees.
Probably stole the primer pump drain petcock off of it.
Along with the vise on the bumper.
Go figure.

Does anyone know of a aftermarket replacement part.
Or at least a part #?
If I cant get her started, I wont be able to move it.
Because of the air brakes.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

An aftermarket replacement part # for which item? The vise? The primer pump drain petcock? If it is the former, they are rare, but can be found. I just sold an NOS vice on this list, but it is gone now.

you should be able to move it anyways even though it has air brakes.
either
1 cage the brakes or
2 hook up another truck to it and fill the tanks with air to "release" them

im not formiliar with the 900 series thought. but a suggestion from our over the road trucks

push the emergency air brake release on the lower right of dash right below/next to the guages, that is what it is for, All the best that is ONE SWWEET RIDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...Randy

Hey folks,

Does anyone know the original part #, or aftermarket # for the petcock?
(the one on the truck)LOL

If there are any owners out there.
Could you snap/send a couple pictures.

Thanks

Great truck. That p/n along with thousands more can be found in the 2 parts manuals available for download here on SS. Good luck. The 939-series trucks are a lot of fun.
