A gun on a ring mount would give real meaning to "road rage", if the M35 wasn't intimidating enough.

Double heaters work best when they are placed in series. Then there is positive flow through each. The temperature of the coolant drops little, after the first heater. That moulded foam insulation that you can get for insulating house pipes at home depot, works great on heater hose. Lee in...

Besides a "parts vehicle", make them. You should be able to come close enough to the original shape, that most folks can't tell the difference. For the loop part, a commercial clevis should be adequate. Otherwise a salvage yard - go shopping. Lee in Alaska

You don't have to pick it up. You have a claim! You do need a notebook though, with the dates times etc. I'd start with the base commander. He will talk with you.... He does not want to talk with a Congressman. Some way, he is in charge of the GL Folks. He is in charge of all who are on...

280# for empty tongue weight is probably OK for an empty trailer - does it cause the lunette/pintle to rattle, going down the road? Might be a little light. But loading that trailer will talk constant attention, versus truck weight. Ever heard of a 105 doing a fishtail on a deuce? Never...

I have towed the M37 several times with a M211. I don't care about scubing, but to keep the wheels from turning sideways, tie the steering wheel off with a couple of bungee cords in the neutral position. A trailer is always best. There probably isn't enough castor built into the front axle...

You can drag it to where your going with a pickup. Your going to have hot spots in the engine. Besides all that stuff, your going to loose stuff and it takes time to move the stuff/tools/bolts off the fenders. Get a coleman lantern and put it back together. You'll be done in an hour! That...

Years ago, there was a company, I believe in the Seattle, WA area, that made "after market" products for MV's. I think the name was Wittenburg. They were especially fond of making fiberglass body parts for the deuces, both cabs and hoods. I don't know if they are still in business. Lee in...

Can't help with the pictures, but it only works one way. Also, there is the emergency brake that bolts in there with the T-case linkage. When its in place, the lever that pulls it in 4wd, is the rear most lever. Then the Hi-lo range lever, is next, or in front of the other lever. Get the...

My guess is a 3 or 4, series 53 engine? No turbo, juice brakes, vacuum assisted.

The comparison of one tire to another will go on and on...... The bottom line is that if you take the vehicle with "stock" NDT tires and chain it up all around, it will out perform ALL other vehicles in all Off Road conditions, until you chain those vehicles. And chained tires, are the only...

You can use "Heet" for the alcohol. But the the heavy truck stores have a special stuff that has a little die in it, so if you happen to have a leak somewhere, there will be a little color in that area, left by the die. First though, you need the alcohol sniffer for the truck. Any of them...

Anything above 0f is not a problem for them. Putting heat on them is best. Check all battery connections now. Take them off, scrape them, and put grease/dielectric grease on them. Reb said it. Use either to get them going in modest temps. That is much better them grinding your starter...

The channel the winch is mounted to is not real strong, and will no doubt flex when it is under load. That will put an alignment strain on the winch itself. If you weld it to those receivers, it will strenghtin it some, but probably still not enough.

Yeah, you can just use them on one rear axle, if your sure that is all you will need. I put them on the front driver so it roughs up the traction for the rear driver. If your just on ice, flat ground, you can get away with that. To be safe, put a single chain on one steering tire, and one...

Chains on the steering axle is real important - it gives you the ability to steer. If its really slippery, and your loaded/chained on the rear, often the truck will just go straight, even though you turn the wheel. Chaining only the outside dual wheel works right up to the time that you need...

I have chanced several PTO's output direction. I have not done the deuce, but if you look at those cases, on most PTO's, all you have to do is swap directions with the shafts and related internals. Its like the Garwood winch - they will change from front to rear, left or right. It just...

Having a winch, "almost" guarrentees that you won't need it. Once you have it, all you will then need is a little imagination. You may be slowed down, but not stopped. Lee in Alaska

If the points setting keeps changing, as above, the bushing is worn out.

Do them in series. It works good. Wire them seperately (each with a switch), To better adjust the temperature. Lee in Alaska
