I did not see this before, and I wanted to thank you for responding! I always appreciate, and am blown away, when people take the time for little, uninformed, beginner in the military vehicle scene, me! To be honest, I am a little intimidated to ask questions here, because, not only am I...

M 54 LDS-465-1a I looked for hours at the TMs...can't find torque specs for the pressure plate bolts? Anyone? Thanks for checking if you do! :) BTW....Where are ANY torque specs? Thanks!

Yes mine is a '68 M54... Yes! I thought before, as well, that it would have to start being parallel to the frame after I cut it and widen it. It would look OK. But If I am hearing it right, I can keep a relative taper front to back using a M939? Is that right? Since the bed will be...

Cool! Glad to see this, as I am also going to stretch my cab. My problem, I'm not sure if you have this as well, is my cab is TAPERED front to back. It would be a lot easier if it was just a simple stretch, but no. I am not sure at this point if I will go with two extra doors, or just have the...

hey i'm doing the same. i have a 25' bluebird school bus id love to put rockwells and 4x4. do you have pictures or parts list? thanks for the info.

"OLD DAYS"?.....

thanks good to know!

Thanks...i just saw a 1990 5T 6x6 in an auction. This one has 250 hp Cummings, 5sp Allison auto, anti-lock air brakes. No winch or central tire inflation that I saw, with a soft top, and some kind of fire water tank and pumps and nozzles with control from the cab. I could part that out...

Hi everyone. I have already in a short time here been treated kindly and guided expertly. Thanks to everyone! As a disclaimer, I never really was involved with a forum before so if I don't have the proper etiquette initially let me know, please. I know somewhere on the threads I may find what I...

I would like to add, not from personal experience hauling water, but I used to pull 70 foot or longer power-poles on a dolly with a high center of gravity behind and already long line truck for the power company, and remembering my physics from college, I will say that if you drive imagining...

wait........bells in my head ringing! I have a new, old, 1968 5 ton, I think it is a M39? Anyway, I was driving it home and the brakes AND the clutch both stopped working in my driveway. You mentioned CLUTCH RESERVOIR? DO the brakes and clutch both share a master cylinder? This would make sense...

lol...thank you1

BTW...what number, or designation or series, should I try to find. OF COURSE id love a locker, or several. I also like the 8x8's but im sure they're pricey. I would prefer a crew cab, but not necessary. I also like the ones where the engine is in front, not underneath, although they are shorter...

Hi. I was told it did. But I have seen a few others with 427. The school bus is an 84 or 85 GMC. I saw where someone used the bus and put it on a 5ton like mine. I guess I could do that. I paid 5k for the 5ton and 2500 for the bus. They both run and drive. I was wondering about body twist...

Awesome. Thank you! Thanks! I just did. Got distracted for hours reading a lot of those :)
