    M104 CDN-3 purchases

    The M104-3 trailes were built around 1984 in canada based on the M104 trailer design with the use of the 11:00 20 tires on them. I believe that in the late 80's or early 90"s the canadian military replaced the entire fleet of the MLVWs (Canadian M35s) and the 1 1/2 ton trailers with the 2 piece...

    M104 CDN-3 purchases

    I was lucky enough to win 4 M104 CDN-3 trailers at our recent goverment auction last week. I got one that is serial # 0002-2 and I do not believe that it was ever used in service as there is no damage or rust on the trailer. I purchased the other ones mainly for the combat two piece rims with...

    Snow Picture

    Hello Rockman The tires have great traction as well as run great on the highway. The camo was installed on a large portion of the Canaidian M37 and the M152's in the early 70's by the military but unsure if it was winter specific or a regular camo sceme. Here is a picture of my iltis with the...

    M37 Gear change

    If you want to do a cheap gear swap to 489's like I did, I found my 489's out of a late 40's to late 50's dodge civilian 1 ton, as they use 489 gears and the carrier is the same as the m series dodge and the power wagons. All you have to do is change the pinion yoke and front seal ( best to do...

    M135 # 2

    I got the truck home today just before it started to pour rain (towed it). I hope to see if it will run and drive when it stops raining in the next couple of days. The truck has been sitting for 10 years according to the wife as that is when he had a heart attack and never drove it since. The...

    What's Different About Canadian Trucks

    Yes the last picture was the same truck. I took it on a 2000 mile road trip to BC for there local freedom + 60 tour in 2005 and wanted to have it look all original. I found the parts to turn it into a soft top in the summer time. It was very easy to make it a 265 as all you have to do is swap...

    What's Different About Canadian Trucks

    I have a 1952 M37 CDN and I stroked out my 251 to a 265 and changed gears to 489s with a set of 1100x16 tires and it moves along the highway at 60-65 with no problem.
