Discussion:
Is this a C20B, and where to shop for LPG system?

Hi,
I am new to forklifts, just purchased a Clark that has faded military markings on it. Some data plate info is below-
Army Model MHE-207
Clark Model 1756420
SN PR-44
PRG# 10468232
NSN 3930-436-1411
ENG SN 2653
Date Manuf 4-70

From browsing the web it looks like this may be equivalent to the civilian model C20B, is this correct?
This unit runs on gasoline, I'd like to convert it to LPG. Any suggestions as to where to get maintenance manuals and parts manual for a C20B LPG? I was able to find a copy of the military parts manual online.
Where do you guys get your parts for these old machines?

Thanks

Yes, C20B is the Clark model. You could get parts or a LP conversion kit from probably any forklift dealer or repair service. Maybe look on E Bay for a manual.

Fact of the week
In March 2002, identical twins in Finland died on the same day in similar accidents within hours of each other. A 70-year-old man was killed by a truck while cycling; hours later, his twin brother was killed by a truck on the same road, about a mile away, before the family had been informed of the first accident.
