That place is great. I picked up 5 16x20 there on my way back from Hodges S.C. to Massachusetts. They stayed open late and there prices are really good.

I mounted my aubur gauge in the high beam spot and moved to high beam light to the center. Not so in your face.

Powerstroken: I did my 24v hid conversion to my m35a3. It turned out great. I believe they are better or brighter than the LED style. I got my kit off ebay. Type in 24v bixenon HID. All the ballasts and high/low beam module fit under the a3's light shroud. I had to lengthen the wire to the...

You can regear the diffs. but I've heard it cost like 1300 per axle. Thats a lot of money I think just for gears.

My A3 had a shimmy as well when I picked it up from gl. I checked to see if the wheel weights were on the tires and they all were. So I looked at it alittle longer and the wheel weight wasn't on the right stud opposite of the ctis cover. When I got home I moved it back one stud and walla...

I like the tin foil trick. Never thought of that one.

beautiful truck, they should have come from the gov't like that. How much for the 73's

I picked my truck up in S.C. and drove it 1000 miles in 2 days. No real problem other then two tires going soft every couple hundred miles. I wish I only had to go a coulple hours away. Didnt need any tools other than the glad hand hose and chuck. They are worth there weight in gold

I just picked up 4 Ether cans at my parts store. There are made by Cold Start. The parts guy said they retailed for $49 each, but let me have them all for $49 because they had been there for a long time.I think that was a good deal

I am planning on doing the 24v hids in my truck. Just have to get the H4 style lens and then order the HID kit. I put the 55 watt HID's in my wifes Yukon Denali and it was the best money I have ever spent. HID's are the way to go.[thumbzup]

Sounds like fun. I hope I'll have my m35a3 by then. I bought it back in early april. We'll see if GL can get it done by then.:-D

well i hope this works. just built it lasts year and the grass hasn't grown in yet. still no MV in the driveway, just the wifes suv

You could also think about putting in a timer, incase you forget to shut them off. That way there's no risk of burning them out

wow, just read this thread about my wonderful mass. I am in the process of trying to get a m35a3 and am now scared of what Im going to have to go through. I guess the antique plates are out of the question. Oh and where are all the dueces in western ma. Your all out east.
