Any idea what kind of battery charger I would need to charge these safely and where I would find such a charger, please?

Previous owner said they came out of a Vulcan Missile Truck, not sure what that is.

Whoa, that doesn't sound good. Thanks for the info. That's kinda odd though, after all what good is a battery if it has to be charger by a battery charger.

Thanks for that as when I was backing up the other day my friend saw sparks come out near the rear of the vehicle and I found some wires that the insulation had been rubbed off and I think they might have shorted to the frame. Now the truck won’t start and the batteries are reading 7.5 volts...

Got some pictures of the batteries. The picture of the info on the side is hard to read, but it says: BATTERY, STORAGE BB693A/U NSN 6140-01-072-3123 56803 SAFT AMERICA INC DDAB07-90-C-C033 11 90 24 V / 30 AH / 1 HR / 80°F / 18 V CHARGE @ 28.5 VOLTS FOR 4 HOURS OR FOR 15 AMPS FOR 3 HRS MAX...

I have a pair of olive drab 24 V military batteries with vents that screw shut when you’re fording. I thought that they were the OEM batteries because they are huge and seem to fit perfectly in the battery box without any spacers, but looks like I was wrong about that. The previous owner said...

Anyone know where I can find OEM M35 deuce military batteries and for how much are they sold usually? I believe it came with two 24 volt amphibious batteries, with sealable screw vents on top and they are not lead-acid, but something else that I can’t think of at the moment. Also any idea...

I got a deuce from a friend. I drove it home but it has a leak in the brake system. After sitting for a few months, it now has no fluid in the master cylinder. He says it has a small leak that he has never been able to find, just add fluid and go, no need to bleed the brake system. Sounded a...

On steelsoldiers? Do you remember which one it is?

I hope the girl on the roof comes with it.

Looks pretty awesome, think I might bid on it. What do you think? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/68-M35A2C-Kaiser-Jeep-Army-6x6-Deuce-Military-Biodiesel_W0QQitemZ150199914984QQihZ005QQcategoryZ80765QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Off hardness of aluminum; 6061; does that mean it's aluminum alloy?

This is for a 10,000 lbs winch on a 1968 Kaiser Jeep M35A2 The TM says make sure your winch pin is aluminum. Are they made from pure aluminum or aluminum alloy? I was going to fabricated some from a 1/4" aluminum rod from home depot. Are the factory pins 1/4" in diameter? Thank you.

Do the fording kits include plumbing to extend the vent plugs of the differentials, etc. and where do they extend to?
