    Aftermarket shifter boots

    Pat, I used a strap type oil filter wrench on a real tight one once, it worked for me. I have only ever had a problem with that one.When I got it off, it had a sealant all dried out on the threads, some driver must have hated a loose knob and locktited it but good. John T

    Opinion of Continental turbo diesel engines in M35A2?

    I have an M35A2 with a hole thru both sides of the block and oil pan at #3 cylinder, will check tomorrow for the make of the engine. We pulled the heads and they are OK, I thought sure the front one would be ruined. John T

    Wrecker Differences

    M543 is gas unless it was repowered. M543A2 is multifuel. *!^ is same wrecker body on 800 series 5 ton. Some say the older M62 with single boom cylinder would pick more weight than 543 type wrecker with twin boom cylinders. John T

    Aftermarket shifter boots

    Hi Kenny and all of the list, I apologize for being so poor on a web site, what I do have has a major mistake on it anyway, I run an excavation, traffic signal business and I never have enough help so I'm out there daylight to dark thirty every day. I'll get with it. I also have the winch drum...

    Aftermarket shifter boots

    You could buy the new production boots from me. Mil Spec canvas, exact same size and shape as the issue ones that come in the Arctic Winterization Kits. I have been making them for about a year, sold quite a few at the East Coast shows this season. John Tennis

    Opinions on value of this bobbed Deuce

    RE: Re: RE: Opinions on value of this bobbed duece The price sounded very reasonable to me, I have experience building the shortened deuces and I don't think you left any room for your own time in the price. I really love the M series trucks, I appreciate their simplicity and parts...

    Who has the air assist steering on their deuce?

    The M35 Products kits come complete, everything is there. I have 2 trucks with them installed and just bought 2 more trucks with them on from the Gov't. They are excellent when off road. John T

    M51 pics

    Last M51 I bought cost $1900 with a bill of sale only. It had a winch and runs real good. The 6602 is more powerful off road if you plan on using it. A multifuel would be more economicl if you are running on road. John T

    how hard is it to replace the oil cooler in my 68 deuce?

    Get the right gaskets, they are quite a bit harder than the gaskets that come with Napa filters. Memphis if no one else speaks up about where to find them. Put the EGT guage in and you'll be fine. Most every deuce smokes some when accelerating. Some smoke a lot more than that and ALL M35A1's...

    Bobed truck, will 16.00 20's fit

    The picture of the 4x4 Deuce in this thread is my truck, the first one we built, the one that made everyone want one of their own, right Sasquatch? For a fact, 14.00R 20's are as big as you can run if you don't do serious suspension changes and a stock M35A2 power pack does not make enough...
