I have ZERO experience with roadside service for the deuce and other large military vehicles, however in California the deuce is classified in the commercial weight class even if it is registered as a RV, Historical, or Non-Commercial vehicle. Also, a commercial drivers license (for non...

Would of loved to have towed my M43 wthere behind my M35A2 but, I have to finish the M35 restore first. I just do not want to show up half finished!

GunFreak25 sure is a ringer for Colonel Potter of the old M.A.S.H. series. I know...everyone tells you that! Love a Marine today!

Auction Notes All auctions have drawbacks unless they are one time one purpose auctions like estate sales or unpaid storage containers. I have seen shill bidding occur by following the bids (listed as bogus I.D.'s to protect privacy) for a given item without having to know the identity of the...

I learned the hard way. I tought I could buy the pieces and began by buying two federal beacons. Then I bought two bases (the wrong ones!) that were for the M109 and not a M35A2C . After which I bought two convoy light mounting brackets (the wrong ones) for a 5 ton wrecker instead of the deuce...

Good old DOGHEAD just the right kind of sentiment for someone asking for help. Did you forget when you started and could not find your behind with both hands. I do. The people on SS are for the most part goos hearted, and joke around quite a bit. But being rude is never kind. It took me...

When did camo cab covers and camo cargo covers come into use for the M35 series deuces? I am tryimg to get the accurate cargo cover for a M35A2. I believe that this vehicle was used in Vietnam and need to know if camo covers came into use while this truck was in service. It is a 1971 and was...

Thank you very much for the information

Does anyone know what is the largest tire that can be used on the M43 (M37 variant) ambulance without any lift or modification.? I am a dorf when it comes to all the tire sizes that are out there.

Dead Center Put it dead center under bumber (like the bumper step). Put a fine mesh protective screen over the opening to keep juk out (shouldn"t be to hard. May have to adapt a mounting plate for under the bumper. Just a crazy idea from an asylum runaway.....
