I have changed all of mine to dot 3 when I made to change over I flushed the system with alcohol. That is what my clutch and brake supplier recomended. Haven't had any issues with water/rust/pitting but I do bleed the cylinders yearly with a power bleeder. As for heat build up the brakes on...

That looks a little like what I used on my my M135's to put an air chuck on. Only it's on the driver side on mine.

That's low serial number! I like the rain cap /spark arrestor.

Here's a shot of the original post. Is the TM the same as the stock number or Registration number or do I need to try to find a different number? The generator core was made by a different manufacturer and I did contact them but they only supplied the generator itself and had no idea how it was...

I don't what a TO number is. the name plate says EMU-10-U manufactured by Consolidated Diesel Electric Co. Stock # 6115-719-6122 MFG Model# 4259 Contract # FO4060-67-D-0227 Registration # 611567AIS1319 Made 1-11-67 Serial # 63-1319 I saw these other numbers in my searching but haven't had any...

I sure would like to find a wiring diagram for a emu-10-u any help will be greatly appreciated.

My last post was in 2016 since then I began supervising at a manufacturing plant full out. Finally retired from there to go back to just farming and puttering with my hundreds of projects. Probably have to live to be 150 if I don't slow down and don't start any new projects. I have 2 running...

Thanks for the pictures of your air pack. Started working on my 5 ton today. After taking apart my parts truck air pack to rebuild I had to go to plan B and take off the existing air pack to rebuild. Both air packs had some type of grease in the air canister. I looked for what type lube this is...

If you look close at the first picture I posted you should be able to see both ears were broken.

What are NOS parts? Only one of the new brake drums had a crack also.

Check this out. I got two new still in the box drums to fix both trucks. Who would think to check for cracks, duh! As I was tighting the drive shaft bolts it became apparent I should have.

About missing the crack in the drum. Just got around to fixing this. It happened last fall thats why the peices are rusty. When it broke the peices I found were new brakes. The donor truck drum was an easy catch from over 20 foot away. My other M135 was not that easy, I wire wheeled off the...
