    Don't know them - Should I? I was referring to Tony Zapata.

    Hello from the land of Oz

    Ask and ye shall receive... I would never have guessed! I suppose that's why my 15 year old tires look like new. Reckon there's anything like that for people?

    Hello from the land of Oz

    Couple of weeks went by and no one took the bait so I'll rephrase the question. " What does the OZ in 'MILITARY OZ' on tires mean?" Gotta be ready for Trivial Pursuit !

    Wheel maintenance

    See there! The Shadow Knows! You may be on to something. I've still got the old flap - I'll give it a test.

    M35 winch broke

    Earl, TM9-2320-361-34 Chapter 16 has exploded views and instructions of the front winch. If you don't have that one and it's not in the TM reference section let me know and I'll e-mail chap 16 to you. I've got a broken (cannibalized) winch on mine and another I bought to combine the best of...

    tires

    But has anybody found any deals on 9.00 R20 tubes and flaps? The last I paid was close to $50 for 1 set.

    tranny lube?

    Oh, and if you haven't already, download the Lubrication Order from the Technical Manuals section. Very Helpful.

    tranny lube?

    GL-1 was originally spec'ed but is hard to come by. GL-5 is common and what I use. Like Westech said, look for the Mil Spec designation. Stick with a name brand (I like Texaco) and get it from a commercial lubricants warehouse and it runs about $35/5 gal bucket. buy one of the metal bucket...

    Wheel maintenance

    I've been testing the WD40 on the old flap. So far I can't see any improvement or any detrement. I think cranetruck is probably right. best to just bite the bullet.

    Looks like we've still got some issues with Tech Articles - won't render any content and won't allow buffer pastes.

    Hello from the land of Oz

    Welcome! When I saw your post I just knew you had the answer to why all my deuce tires are marked "MILITARY OZ" - LOL. Guess I'll keep searchin'

    "2 1/2 Ton Ammo Loader"

    I want one! Like Boatcarpenter said, "What holds it to the bed?" And has anybody seen the cargo hoist A-frame kit for the front end of w/w M35s? It's listed in the accessories section of the manual; looks useful!

    Wheel maintenance

    Had a tube blow out the other day while parked in the driveway. While I was standing right next to it! (Sorry, I don't see an emoticon that deals with changing underwear...) Anyway, the flap had dried out and given way allowing the tube to make a hernia. New tube/new flap. Do I need to do...

    Resources

    Gonna have to modify the idea a bit - there was a copyright on page 2. So I guess I'll just post the link and let it go at that.

    High air pressure horn??

    You need a second opinion! hook up a pressure gauge to the aux port on the firewall under the glove box and see what the pressure actually is. Either the dash gauge or the pressure sender for the buzzer is lying. If the pressure is too high, the unloader on the firewall is probably stuck. I...

    Resources

    The BDAR resource went so well I was was tempted to post a Chevron Fuel Review (70 pages, PDF) but felt it should be in the Tech Articles instead of the TM section - No way to import to Articles! Take a look and let me know what you think. Some of the MV articles need to be imported as well.

    Battlefield Damage

    Looks like we may be on to something here. Are any of those "other Army Websites" accessable? It would be nice to also see the "TSBs" that get circulated. I think Kenny's FM will probably supercede the BDAR I posted so if it's the same plus some let's delete mine.

    Hmmm... Blind Hog finds an acorn every now and then! I think I just got the TM loaded to Resources!

    Battlefield Damage

    Well as usual Kenny was right! The 356-BD was on LOGSA and I've got a copy of the PDF file. Anybody got a clue as to how to get it into the resources? No sign of the FM.

    Battlefield Damage

    Hey guys , if I'm the last to discover this just say so and I'll shut up! :) I picked up a really neat TM in an Army store the other day. TM9-2320-356-BD "Battlefield Damage Assessment and Repair for Tactical Wheeled Vehicles". It's the bailing-wire-and-chewing-gum manual - officially...
