    M353 Welding Trailer

    I know its been awhile, but I didn't forget about the leaf count. It has 15 leaves (not counting the overload), for what its worth. Also threw in a picture for everyone's viewing pleasure. As a bit of an update, I haven't found any new downsides to it and its actually grown on me a lot and I...

    M353 Welding Trailer

    Good to know, next time I'm around my 353 I will have to count the spring pack and see how many there are for a comparison.

    M353 Welding Trailer

    I can't really speak to a comparison to that axle , even though we do use one for a water carrier with a ~750-1000 gal poly tank in/on it (which goes without saying, that suspension is plenty heavy), I've never really paid much attention to it, but I can say the suspension on an M353 is plenty...

    M353 Welding Trailer

    Thanks, I believe I ran across a picture of one of those trailer setups when searching for ideas for my trailer. I had never heard of it before, but I seem to remember it having an HPU, welder, and a big hardigg style case mounted on it. It looked very intriguing, I would have liked to seen...

    M353 Welding Trailer

    Thought I would share my welding trailer build off of an M353 base, because when I got this idea, there were hardly any (that I managed to find) examples to pull inspiration from, or to decide if it was a bad idea or not. I chose this route because it was easy and cheap to get a hold of an M353...

    M936A2 Value/Diagnosis Help

    As an update: I made a return trip to check it out once more, I took some qualified help this time. Most of the problems, I diagnosed/dismissed. The air leak is definitely the dryer, seems to be full of trash and water, got the purge valve unstuck (for a little while), enough to drive it, but...

    M936A2 Value/Diagnosis Help

    Thanks, I see the large you hole poked in my logic (no pun intended; maybe a little), I was mostly referring to tread wear and dry rot, but I do see your point. . I can see this (as mentioned above), the fact that the timing cover has been removed before, leads me to be suspicious.

    M936A2 Value/Diagnosis Help

    I am currently attempting to purchase a '91 model M936A2, it was still in the military as late as '06-'10; took the first trip to look it over (4.5hrs away) and check it out. It is personally owned, already titled, and ready to use. I would like some advice on the value of it and some help with...
