Just after WWII I used to see them all the time. Pretty rare now. Great find!

NDT means No Darned Traction.

Mine has a cargo cover, so drive thru's are out. So I get to the bank a few minutes late and had to go thru the window- well, there I was standing in a line of cars, truck parked in the lot.

CTIS parts are high but I do not know of any other parts problems. What specifically is the issue? The A2 uses most of the same parts and Cat and Allison have the rest, or am I missing something? Sorry, posted my question as you were posting the answer! I think part of the A3s problem is the...

Also the A3 is relatively cheap right now, often being sold under $5K. Modern seat, wiring harness is not crusty or brittle, marker lights, dual circuit brakes, air dryer, on and on. Oh, back up lights, mine has no leaks so far (worth something!)

I kind of like both. rofl Hope I never have to thin the herd, kind of like asking which child will you send away.

Just another fun aspect of this is my A3 is titled as a 1993 but was apparently "built" in 1998. BTW this was the 3rd MV I titled and for some reason WV DMV rejected the SF97 and made me go back to GL and get an Arizonza tiitle. Took months! GL was very helpful. Anyway going back to DMV...

Moar info! What did it need to get her running? I would love a mule, congrats. :jumpin:

Gasoline and diesel mixed. Only one way to dispose of a mix like that!

Mine kind of vents out where the seals are supposed to be. rofl

The front bumper is very awesome- not factory though. :driver:

Those are still on active duty and there are a whole bunch of them there! Nice looking truck. :driver:

The A3 is the same as the A2 except for the shift tower, and it is close to the seat. Still it is fine for 3, not ideal but OK.

Once the pump does start pumping it will purge air automatically. I had the same problem and just put a 24volt in line pump on.

Skycop, I just replaced the control head on my CTIS. It was getting power but no activity. Turned out a very small surface mounted resistor was burned out. New one is fine. Interestingly, I have some trouble shooting to do on the air system. My dryer (I think) vents often dropping the air...

It has nothing to do with CTIS and should work almost like hydro power steering when the air pressure is up over 90 psi or so. Should hear air venting off when you let go of the wheel to return to center. If not remove a line on the cylinder and squirt some air tool oil in, also make sure the...

The M35A3 has 3 sets. Driver and 1 passenger have shoulder belts.

What is holding that truck up? A bottle jack? Anyway, good luck on it and hope the new ones work. I did a yellow silicon boot and it his A-OK so far. :beer:

Sounds like a great start! Welcome aboard.

Ha, funny you said that! After I recovered mine wife asked what I was going to name it- It now has "Shake Rattle & Roll" painted on both sides. I am pleased to hear all of them have the brake issue. It brakes much worse than the A2 models, and that with two air packs.
