    Painting an Air Force Deuce

    Some pictures of where you are now might better help us guide you on which way to go. nopics For now I say paint it flat dark grey. It is the ultimate camouflage for foggy conditions, doesn't show dirt much, and looks cooler than penguins feet. :grd:

    M35A3 Cat 3116 Max Operating RPM

    I don't think you can run 53" tires on an A3 unless you extend the dog bones to spread the axles or bobb it.

    24 to 12 volt

    :funny: Is that what you said? :D

    I'm worried that if I go black I will never go back, to a white shirt. :-(

    Tonight I was trying to adjust/lower the brake pedal. Didn't go to well as I broke the T45 torx socket I was using. I think I will try adjusting the nuts on the linkage instead since the torx bolt that holds the pedal shaft to the linkage is seized and I don't really feel like heating it with...

    2nd alternator, 12V

    That is a good deal. I'll have to check back periodically to see if I can find the same deal.

    2nd alternator, 12V

    Right now you can get a 100 amp, used battery equalizer on ebay for $400. I think the 12 volt alternator is probably the better, and cheaper, solution. Nice work on your install. I wish someone would post specs/pics for a bracket to go in an A3.

    There are a couple of pics of the light bar in my build thread: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/deuce-modification-hot-rodding/92951-rumblin-wreck-build.html If you want some more just let me know.

    You got a lot done! That thing is looking slick! Where did you get the AVM hubs?

    Rumblin Wreck Build

    Tonight I painted my floor boards, and touched up my logo stencil (I had to, football season is upon us). I used a medical knife instead of the exacto that I normally use and it worked great! I would hope so though because that particular bad boy is used for circumcision. [thumbzup]

    Official 2012 SS Ga Rally Info thread

    The tree idea is great. However, you will need to reach at least 50 mph in order for the jeep to land flat. So...... I figure you will probably need about 2 miles worth of cable. :D If that idea falls through just find a couple of those guys who are opposed to power steering, they should be...

    Looks Good!!! Those 2' antennas are definitely not for the deuce but the 5' ones may be too tall and hang up on limbs and stuff a lot if you go off road. You might want to consider a 3' or 4' "Superflex" whip by K40. I have one on my Tacoma and it works great and was easy to tune. Also, on...

    2012 Ga Rally parts wanted/for sale/swap thread

    I don't know if we are on the same page. To clarify: I am talking about a custom made bracket to hold a 12v alternator above the 24v alternator in a M35A3. I have seen a few members fabricate and weld these together and was hoping some one might have an extra one or would being willing to...

    Yeah man, you might not even recognize it. Did you sell the Bobber? I was hopping to see what all you had done to it. Edit: I see in your signature that you did sell it :-(. Even though I didn't have that one long I think I will always be curious about it since it was my first MV. Maybe the...

    more power out of a m35a3 ??

    Thanks for the link. However, I read that thread before (and just read it again) and it doesn't really offer any help that hasn't been said in this thread. The posters in that thread mainly argued over the merits of the multifuel vs that of the Cat. Once the thread got back on topic the only...

    For a while I have been looking for a complete winch assembly for my M35A3 but I haven't had any luck finding one. If someone has one available please let me know. Otherwise I am going to start making plans to install an electric winch. In that case, does anyone have the frame extensions that...

    I actually bought the locking door handle from another member on this site. He had ordered some extras and was willing to part with what he didn't need. He did do some grinding and modification so that when I got it all I had to do was bolt it on. It works very well and I am happy with it...
