    Deuce Air Valve

    I've probably done a dozen of these and I used off the shelf Milton fittings. The -P tech manual should have a description of the item, it may show the thread pitch. I can't remember if they were course or fine. Come down next weekend and I'll see if I have an extra laying around rofl

    Deuce Air Valve

    If you're talking about the valve under the glove box on the passenger side, you just need a female thread NPT female air fitting. I can't remember if it's 1/4" or 3/8" but I think it's 1/4".

    M35 Deuce Bed Trailer ( Future Camper)

    Young man, you've got it backwards! Your deuce is supposed to be tandem axles and the trailer single! I suggest re-reading your TM's. rofl

    My M35A2 Project aka Big Betty

    You have it correct. Side A faces the bearings, side B faces the outside. Bearing preload: I know the TM's call for the method they do, but once you've done enough bearings there's a "feel" to it. Not too loose, not too tight. Most people err on the side of too tight, which is worse. I'd...

    Testing your Antifreeze/Coolant - Important Antifreeze Facts

    1. That's the right way to use the site-find the thread you need and bump it for clarification. 2. That's correct-I use a 50/50 mix of coolant, distilled water and then I add the SCA's.

    So has anyone spoken to neilhendrix? Is he coming this year? No joke, we've got to get him to show up, he's going to flip out when he see how much it's grown.

    M35A2 clutch brake and gas pedal mods

    The only way to move the pedals in the way you're describing would be to lengthen the clutch and brake pedal arms that the pedals attach to. Then you'd drill new holes in the floor for them to come through. You would then have to do the math and figure out how much free play was supposed to be...

    NAPA replacement headlight? Or any other?

    You're right-I just called and the 4800 part # was $27.22 my cost and the local distribution center had 2. Can be seen here: http://www.napaonline.com/Catalog/CatalogItemDetail.aspx/Headlight-Bulb-High-Low-Beam/_/R-LMA4800_0411233169 Obviously that's the 3 pronged civvy connector, but that's...

    NAPA replacement headlight? Or any other?

    As the others said, Napa can get them. I have a distributor account with Napa and my cost was over $100 each. I understand being in a hurry but Napa will have to special order them and you'll have to monkey with the wiring connectors. Best bet is to buy the right ones (with packards) on...

    Pintle size mis-match. Easy fix??

    Unbolt the lunette from this and drive your truck to Northern tool. Find lunette that fits (by walking out in the parking lot and testing it), buy it, swap it, etc. Or do what NDT said.

    M35a2 conversion to M35a3 dual circuit brake system

    There are 3 pedal mounting assemblies: M44/M44A1 & M44A2 w/ single circuit brakes (i.e. 1986 and older) 1987-1989 M44A2 USAF contract: This allows for the clutch pedal (and winch PTO shift lever mounting) M44A3. The M44A3 mount does not have provisions for the clutch pedal (which CBR...
