    New to a Deuce, where to start...

    Welcome from Kentucky. The truck looks to be in pretty good shape. Read up on the operator's manual, check/change fluids, inspect the brake system, fresh belts and fuel and I'll bet it would drive straight through to the Land of Lincoln.

    Deuce worth the money?

    Welcome from Kentucky. The truck is in pretty typical shape for its age and level of care is hasn't gotten. It will make a nice project. The biggest concern is , do you have a place to park it and work on it? (inside storage). Working outside will be a drag and possibly an issue with the...

    I finally gave in and got an m35a3

    Way to go, nice truck. Give it a good lube and change the fluids and you should be good. Double check all your vents, including the transmission vent. Insects love to plug them.

    New Deuce in NH

    You should be fine, as long as you're not hauling on a daily basis or using it for something that would be considered commercial. You have an antique truck hauling old (antique) wood. Now find a M105 trailer to complete the purchase, and you can real move some wood.

    New Deuce in NH

    86K1132 is the registration, the data plate will have a "C xxx xxxxx" number, that is the serial number. Combine both numbers for the VIN #, if you need to title it. I have an 86 USAF deuce.

    Greetings! New member looking for local resources.

    Welcome from Kentucky, Hopefully a nicely rebuilt M109A3 will not need a engine overhaul and such. Plan on oil changes, bulbs, belts and filters down the road. Post up pictures, we love pictures. JC

    Advice on purchasing a 5 ton

    Front drive shaft carrier bearing makes the "rattling chain" sound. They can last a long time making noise. I had the same problem. Take the front drive hubs off and take it for a spin. This will keep the shaft/bearing stationary.
