    Have you ever made a soldier cry?

    My truck stays parked at the local Ace hardware store (with the owner's permission) and I often work on it up there. It is amazing how many patrons of the hardware store stop to talk with me about the truck. Many of them have served and I always stop whatever I am working on to chat with those...

    Formal Introduction and a M35

    Welcome Navo! You should be able to get a diesel mechanic to thoroughly look over a M35 for around $300. In the past I have had two A2's looked at by diesel mechanics and it cost me $300 at one place only $250 at the other. Now I own an A3 and have been very happy with it. I like the piece...

    I just switched from Guide One, liability only, at $80/month to Gulfway (underwritten by travelers) for full coverage and now only pay $38/month.

    Out With The New (Winch)...

    You can buy winches that are specifically 24 volt, they are just expensive. In researching different winches I came across several that were advertised as 12 volt but if you read the manual they can be wired for 24 volts (I think Warn specifically had several like this). You can easily compare...

    M35a3 Parking Brake / Emergency Brake State Inspection

    Adjustment needed. Other people may have experienced this issue but I never have so I don't know if I would call it a common problem with A3's.

    Two Tone Wet Sanding

    Yeah, I already messed it up a little bit. The wet sanding was needed because I had some run marks from the stencils I used. Didn't have to be perfect but it would have bothered me. Also, I plan on using this truck to tail gate at Georgia Tech football games and I want it to look fairly good...

    trailer lights converter

    I'll PM you the exact webpage but Amazon.com sells all kinds of bayonet based LED's in case the ones I used aren't exactly what you need.

    24V to 12V For Emergency Equipment

    You will probably be able to find the switches you need for about half that price at McMaster Carr.

    trailer lights converter

    I don't know... Switching to LED's may still be cheaper and easier. Plus, they should last virtually forever.

    trailer lights converter

    No Worries. You can get Pyle 24 to 12 volt, 120 watt converters on ebay for $17 each right now. There may be other brands that are cheaper but since I have used their stuff before I know it works. Also, you cold change out your incandescent lights to LED's for about $7 each. The LED's that...

    trailer lights converter

    I wasn't arguing my point. You asked a rather curt question so I gave you a curt answer. You could buy several smaller, even cheaper, converters and make it work but I not going to engineer it for you. If you know so much, then why are you asking for help in a public forum? You shouldn't be...

    M35A2 As a working Truck

    You may want to look into insurance first because your age may make it difficult to insure. There is a real go thread on insurance here but I found that some of the companies listed didn't work for me. It almost seams like it depends on who you talk to at the insurance company as to whether or...

    24V to 12V For Emergency Equipment

    I use two Pyle 720 watt voltage converters. I got them several months ago for about $25 each on ebay but I looked today and they were $40. I run a stereo, cb, four 100 watt PA's, a four channel amplifier, two subwoofers, four speakers, two 12 volt outlets, and a fan. They have worked very...
