That's great! Would have never thought of anything that simple haha.

Ha. What do you know?

That can only work with trucks with big, heavy duals...

Next, they'll put a hole in the bodywork in front,

make up a way to hook a handle up to the crank, and then you

could turn the motor over directly- no transmission losses...

my 1948 Chevy truck could be started using a crank handle, the crankshaft pulley had the notches for it, and the grill had the hole in it to get a crank handle in there.

that's how they started 'em back before the electric starter was invented.

There's a way to pull start an Automatic, too I'd never do this to my 5 cylinder...

I suppose you could do it with an M10, but it would require a hole in the fender!
