This is for the bobbed deuces that live in the hills and snow. I am considering bobbing my 66 wo/w My main concerns: Will the loss of the read axle reduce poor weather (aka snow) performance? With larger tires (up to and including 395s) how bad will I feel it on the hills? I live in the...

This is not a 'for sale' add.. this is a do a favor for SS members post! I am making a run to a place that is chock full of 275Gal IBC totes. Had food coloring or ink or something in them. They have lids and valves.. good condition. My trailer can fit 3, I need two... if there is a 'demand'...

I put an ad on Craigslist to buy used motor oil.. 55gallon min. I got 3 hits right away for 50, 55, and 160 gallons. I offered the guy with 3 55gallon drums $0.50 gallon ($28 a barrel) which I consider a fair price. So far no reply. To low? I have no problem paying for WMO as long as its...

I have finished the decals for the CCKW engine. Attached is a screen shot of the decals (not to size... they are whatever the thumbnail viewer displayed them as). These will be actual water slip decals (unless the printer has any reservations about such large decals). More info is at...

My oil is clean, from my own cars... and I really don't have a lot of it (maybe 10 gallons saved up). So I bought three sock filters (50,10,1 micron) and two 5 gallon buckets (bought new so would not have to worry about cleaning them). Pics are self explanatory. The socks hole about 2...

I just want to give a heads up to the oh so common question of M35a2 wiper replacement. The ANCO 41-01 arms and 31-13 blades fit great and do a much better job than the standard arms. I got the arms from RockAuto.com for $11 each with $12 shipping (total was $35.82 for two wipers to my door...

Hello all. The gas cap on my deuce is very lose. I was thinking its time to replace the gasket. Found a post on SS, but not one replied. Don't want to spend the $$ on a new gas cap... anyone have a source for the gasket?

Picked up a deuce and the fold down troop seats are cut. They stop a few inches forward of the 2nd bow on both sides. The seat back is not cut, just the seat. Any idea why this cut was made? Load/unload cargo? A big honking tool box? Any pics of M35s with this mod? Thanks

I already submitted what i could to CARNAC, but seeing that I have a a somewhat original 66 the other VIN threads are not matching exactly... So, just in front of the left shock mount (some numbers are actually covered by the bracket I see: 36-19-R XX-29-66 I read XX as a '10'.. I can...

Anyone know the diameter of the brake bleeding hose that can fit over the bleeder screw of the wheel cylinders? I bought 3/16 ID hos, and I have 1/4ID fuel line. Will any of those work?

I'm at 60 days. Called DLA and opened a ticket. This is the response: "The DLA Accountability office responsible for issuing a Trade Security Control (TSC) clearance advises that your assessment is still pending at this time. The Accountability Office states they received your EUC from...

I'm pretty sure we had the towbar between a running and a towed deuce set up properly, yet whenever the towing M35 turned, the towed M35 countersteered and nearly ripped the tires off the rims. For example, turned right, towed M35 countersteered left (fully to the left) and drug the front end...

I have made a somewhat important discovery regarding the decal on the oil pan (the oil filter is in another thread). Most of the info is here: tm9-801.com • View topic - CCKW Oil pan Decal info - SOLVED! But the major points are: It was only on the 'deep sump' oil pan. The decal even has...

I am awaiting my first M35a2 EUC to clear. After reading lots of recovery posts, I keep seeing the same thing... the cab noise is bad. What opinions are there regarding driving with your hound? I have a pack of 5 and would like to either throw them in the bed or in the cab... Anyone have...

I ran across this while looking for a gallon of DOT-5 silicon brake fluid: AGS SILICONE BRAKE FLUIDS DOT 5 - JCWhitney $69.99 a Gallon, DOT-5 (not 5.1) and free standard shipping. Most of the surplus dealers seem to be out, or their web sites don't list it. Can anyone see anything wrong with...

Does anyone have a picture, or know of a source that has the AC filter decals for the Military Senior oil filters used on the CCKW? I have the body decal figured out, the lid decal is illegible in all the TMs.

Some trucks have the headlight in the lower holes, with the BO drive light above, others have the lights in the upper holes with the BO driving light below. Any idea why? Is it an early/late thing? Also, I saw an M35 with a very wierd panel. It had the Tach and speed separated by the gas...

Has anyone gotten the 'filter kit' (all but the air) from clintdigger97 on e-bay? Price seems OK ($55 for the filters w/$15 SH). Is that an OK price or should I look local? I read a few napa/filter threads and have the numbers. Is there a cheaper fuel/oil filter route?
