My blue warranty plate and rust proofing sticker both say 04/88 I didn't have a chance to check the other component tags for useful info yet.

Thanks for your insight. If you find a number stamped into your frame, please let me know. I checked the around the whole truck and couldn't find anything other than the data plates on the engine, transmission, axles, etc. The paint doesn't seem thick enough that it should have covered any...

These are the pics I took the other day after getting her home. A 24v charger already brought the two hawker batteries back to life. She starts under her own power now. I installed the temp and oil gauges today, the rest will go in this week.

Yep, well versed in the spotter thread. This is the third late model truck I have owned and I am keeping this one! I'll check the date on the blue data plate tomorrow. When you say bumpers and back of bed, are you talking about a stenciled number or something punched into the metal? This...

Wow, those trailers are so cool. I'd need a 5ton to drag it around if I bought one...hmm...

Nice! Now I am off to order a couple!

So I picked up a late model M35A2C out of SC this past month. The data plate was removed and I have had no luck finding a stamped number on the frame. Anyone have any ideas on where I should be looking other than the usual place? The shiny spots are where I removed paint looking for the...

I don't think the Lucas oil additive would have caused your problems. I use it all the time, but it is a lot warmer down here in Florida so thick goo tends to flow easier. You should be able to buy the seal at the local auto parts store. As already mentioned above, change the oil pump as well...

Chill63 and I are probably going to attend as well. Brevard county will represent! Maybe the three of us can convoy over.

Yes, the towed truck was also mine so the loss is my own. My truck and chill63's were supposed to be trucked from JAX to Palm Bay. Our driver bailed last minute and we were in a time crunch to get them removed. I had a quote from another driver at 1.7x the cost of the original quote. We...

YES...see my edit above; you must have posted while I was editing. The PDF in post 1 mentions this as well. Lack of braking in the towed vehicle can and will cause jack knife situations. I'll attest to that! Everyone and anyone flat towing deuces with deuces needs to be cautious and explore...

I think the stretch of road I was on is particularly dangerous and slick when it gets wet. Jacksonville news and the sheriffs I talked to reported 8 accidents on the small stretch of road during the brief rain storm on Tuesday. There were several accidents both north and south of the location...

Deuce towing deuce for any real distance, I'd say about 6.

I am bumping this thread for tow bar safety. While towing a new M35A2 home yesterday with a M35A2C, I had a nasty jack knife situation. About 10 minutes south of Jacksonville on I-95 a rain storm started up and traffic started to slow ahead of me quickly. I was doing about 45mph and I touched...

If your looking for coolant filters and bases, these guys have great prices. I just ordered 5 bases and 5 filters. Wix 24019 & Napa 4019 Base: FleetFilter Secure Online Store

The finished product at the end is neat. Innovative!

Looks like I need to take a drive! That looks awesome.

Maybe you need to renegotiate ? When you say "none of us", who does that include? Our previous admin had an interest in the site, what is to say the new admin doesn't? Not that it matters or that I care, just keeping it real.

There is a lot of hate in this thread. I can already tell by the posts I've read this wont go over well, but "the haters" need to take a real look at how you respond to people that question the $15 fee. A forum is only as good as the content and the members with the knowledge to post said...

I'm just busting your balls since your sql syntax was wrong, but in case you want to brush up: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/ :beer: Keep up the good work.
