I have Super Start 51-R AGMs in some of my equipment. I have been completely happy with them and the extra power. They are also made in the U.S. unlike the Mexican Odyssey batteries. I got good service from Odyssey batteries until they relocated manufacturing to Mexico.

I've been with USAA fror years, but they won't insure my FMVs. I had my M35A3 insured with State Farm, but they raised the rate to an unacceptable level. I got a quote from Hagerty for my M35A3 and my M151A2. Then I went to a local independent insurance agent and they got me the same Hagerty...

Having to get a salvage or rebuilt title is ridiculous. Several years ago I had a deuce that caught on fire due to a rats nest in the engine compartment. The fire did a significant amount of damage, just under $10K. State Farm performed an evaluation and told me the truck was totaled. I...

According to reports I read, the driver was driving erratically prior to the accident and after hitting the trees was ejected from the Humvee so he was obviously not wearing a seatbelt. As Mogman stated, we have absolutly no idea what actually happened.

Expedition Imports has one for $1800.00!

The fittings on the passenger side at the regulator were all corroded beyond any chance of salvage. I got the part numbers for each part, took measurements, and searched online for the parts in stainless. Most were quite easy to find, but I do remember that one fitting was very difficult to...

I purchased a length of 316 stainless steel 10 mm tubing and bent it to match the original. I also had to purchase some of the fittings that were toast. Every fitting I replaced was stainless as well. I wanted a permanent fix.

I went to the 3rd Armored Division Veterans annual reunion there a few years back. Very good museum. You can spend days there to see everything. I donated a lot of WWII stuff to the museum after I visited.

I had a similar issue with my M35A3 once. It turned out to be a bad battery. Most of the time it would fire right up and other times it was like an open circuit. One of the batteries would occasionally go open internally under heavy load. The lights, however, were always bright. Very...

I take the TM instruction to mean fill to the bottom of the round neck the cap screws on. Anyway, that is what I've been doing for the almost 14 years I've owned my M35A3 and I've never had any issues.

I have an M35A3 W/W and I love it. However, this truck is not a daily driver. I'm not sure why you would want it to be a daily driver. You are going to have poor mileage, tire wear and put a lot of mileage on the truck which means maintenance issues.

Rick, you can also purchase a Kill A Watt. They are not very expensive and will tell you the voltage and frequency. The On-board frequency meter on my 003 is fairly accurate, but I fine tune the frequency based on my Kill A Watt EZ unit. I plug it into the convenience outlet. I purchased my...

He meant that with a SEE, you can lift it up with the backhoe or loader so you don't need a jack if the engine is running.

My FLU came with the jack also, but it doesn't work. I've played around with it, but finally gave up. I may try to rebuild it later.

I was really lucky in that my FLU came with all of the hydraulic tools and the hydraulic system worked perfectly. I bought my FLU sight-unseen based on extensive photos. I was told that there were no hydraulic tools included. When I received it I found all of the tools and accessories were...

I'm still running SAE10 non-detergent motor oil in the hydraulics and haven't had a problem. Brake fluid is DOT 5, same as what the Army used. You don't want to mix DOT 5 with anything else. Engine oil is SAE 30 diesel oil.

The item is part of a rifle mount kit. The base should be on the floor.

Mine is a 1998 manufacture, the last year the A3 was released - probably why mine has fiberglass and yours has wood. All A3s in 1998 were supposed to have a fiberglass hood. My A3 had a very nasty steel hood for some reason. I was lucky and found an NOS fiberglass hood for $200.00 on Ebay...

I'd buy the A2 if the price is right and put a standard multi-fuel in. Sell it if you don't want to keep it and make some money. However, I would look for an A3 that has a CAT engine in it already if you want a CAT engine, and save all of the work, but that's just me. A3s are very reliable...

Just print out the schematic and have it laminated. I printed mine out 'C' size and had it laminated for $1.00 at my local library.
