Well I am almost ready to start painting. After I pilled the wheels off I noticed that one f the boots was torn. The axel stop bolt punched a hole in it. Spinning the hub I noticed that the bearing was making noise. This is the bearings I just replaced about 6 months ago. It is the front...
What is the going rate for a set of good used front fenders?
Mine have some patch jobs and are tweaked a bit. Do I try to straighten them or just replace?
I think the windshield frame in the 900 series truck is the same height as the deuce but wider. How wide is the frame in the 900 series trucks?
Thinking about grafting one onto my M725.
Well I am ready to make the BIG UGLY look nicer. I have pulled the bed, removed and dismounted the wheels and tires and if the heat does not kill me I will blast, do some body work, and paint. I bought the paint from RAPCO, Marine Corp simi gloss 24052.
I have no body or painting work...
I picked up this front rack. Will it work with normal troop seats on a M35A2?
11907-11611612 MFR 54979
It fits the stake pockets and small holes on the sides but looks too short.
I have never looked at troop seats so not sure what will and will not work.
I pulled the bed so I can prep the...
I have had several people asking about rims. I have 7 rims each in 10 and 20 bolt , and 7 16 bolt HEMET W/ bead lock inserts. The HEMET rims are really nice.
Some of the 10 and 20 combat rims are not as nice as I have had before but they will clean up really nice. 4 of the 20 bolt still have...
I have not driven the big ugly in a couple weeks. 67 M35A2. I went about 2 miles from the house and was making a stop to buy a winch from a rollback wrecker. As I rolled to a stop there was a pop from under the hood and I could hear air escaping and pressure dropping. Turned off the truck...
How good are 80's model suburban axels. They are in a 2500 4 X 4. I was thinking about using them in my M37 or in a 59 Willy’s wagon project. 4.10 gears. Not free floating hubs.
I found some NDT 11.00's. The ones I saw were like new but have not seen all of them. He said he had about 150. They are mounted on 10 hole split ring rims. All of the ones I saw were holding air. $55.00 each.
I have access to some 16.00 X 20’s which are mounted on 10 hole rims. I guess from the HEMTT’s. The rims are the 2 piece lock ring style. Most are still holding air. There are also some 14.00’s mixed in and some HUMVEE 36’s. Some tires have good, almost new, tread, some not so good.
On...
OK I could not find a data plate and these are the best pic's I could get wih my phone. I might can get it cheep, not sure. Any idea what truck it is and what motor, trans, etc it has?
I was not able to get pic’s. NSN#23208358331. It is a 1962 W/W 5 ton dump with the gas motor. Soft top frame. Floor has very little rust. Hood is dented from being walked on. It has been sitting for 15 years or so. Rats in air cleaner and maybe carb. Front axel is on the ground from...
I scored a 5 ton winch several months back. Was thinking of adding it to the rear of my deuce but it sure is big. I am in need of the bearing retainer plate that goes on the PTO shaft and the drum lock. Anyone have access to parts that might be able to help?
I added a muffler to my truck and had noticed that the stud bolt for the windshield spinner would hit when you tried to lower the windshield. One of those I need to fix but never did. I went to put the windshield down and forgot about it. After a minor dent in the muffler can, the bolt and...
I am looking at getting some troop sides for my deuce. Does the deuce use the same cross bows as the 105 trailer or are the bows specific to the deuce. I found a place that has lots of pieces and parts but I was not sure what I needed to look for.
Wood or fiberglass? He has both and wants $25...
Ok I added a locker to the front axel. Man what a differance in the mud. With the 15.5’s it was bad on the knuckles from before with the steering wheel spinning out of control in ruts or hitting obstacles. Know with the locker it seams a lot worse. If I added the air assist steering will it...
I found a rockwell axel at a salvage wholsale company. It is used but in a wooden crate. Has a rebuild service tag but did not get the info from it. Too dark for PIC's in the wearhouse. It looks like a deuce axel. Has 6 lug pattern. It also has a CTIS inflation system. What would the axel...
