    PA - Spring 2014 Rausch Creek Steel Soldiers Rally

    We didn't make it. I'm sure many were deterred by the rain. We WILL be there next year. Definitely attending the show a Sussex fair grounds at the end of April. Weather is breaking, search for our first deuce is on!!

    New Jersey April 26 and 27th, 2014 Military Vehicle Show and Swap Meet.

    Plan on coming on Saturday, this will be my first time attending this show. Looking forward to it. Fortunately it is only about 45minutes from me. As some of you know I'm looking for my first deuce so I'm curious to see if there will be any at this show for sale.

    M35A2 Front bumper Mods

    That looks awesome, not sure if I personally care for how far it hangs down but that is a matter of opinion. Still a bad a$& looking mod! Nice job!!

    M35A2 Front bumper Mods

    Peashooter, those are some awesome ideas. I bet you could sell a bunch of those boxes to people with winch bumpers....especially those of us with no fab tools!!

    M35A2 Front bumper Mods

    I'd be concerned about how much they hang out and down, reduces approach angle.

    Looks like a 5 ton to me.

    X2 on this one!! Horribly bad photoshop. The proportions of vehicle to tires is way off as well.

    Going to look at a deuce

    Yeah, I figured on doing that. I try to be a once and done type of person. I like to get all the parts needed and do everything in that area that is a likely wear or fail item. That is the way I work on all my items. I've already been pricing boots, seals, brakelines, etc as to me while I have...

    Going to look at a deuce

    The seller bought it from a seller in Western PA and had a title then. He has it registered as a regular vehicle in N.Y. He said he had a title so maybe he has the original PA title. I'm not sure didn't ask to when I was there today.

    Going to look at a deuce

    The motor is a continental and it looked like it was rebuilt in 86. It started right up and ran strong. It sounded real tight. It has a D turbo and the fdc was already bypassed. The oil pressure gauge didn't appear to work but it did not sound like oil pressure was an issue. All in all it...

    Going to look at a deuce

    Skinny you are correct. The truck was listed on eBay as well as listed locally. The auction ended today but the seller notified that the person buying wanted to bow out. He notified me last night and after talking with him this am I went and saw it. First off I will say it was windy as a mother...

    Going to look at a deuce

    Going to look at a deuce today. It is a 1971 Kaiser Jeep M35A2 with a Continental motor and D turbo. Looks like it is in really good shape, tires practically new, all brakes redone less than 400 miles ago. He is looking for $5500.00. I'll keep everyone posted.

    This was exactly the route I was planning on going.

    Gotcha, yeah I know they are pricey...I looked them up for MRAP wheels as wheel. I wasn't thinking of offset difference either.

    There are adapter plates you could get and bolt/weld into those wheels right? Thought I had seen those.

    My bad!!! Pics popped up on that quote after I sent my reply...sorry

    LT. Dan M35a2 Modification Thread

    Definitely want to see some pics of your wheels when they are done. I was figuring on MRAP wheels with adapter plates on flipped hubs. Figured it would be the easiest way for me considering I don't weld or have access to machining equipment.

    I was Stuck in the mud

    I'm sure we all have seen some sloppy holes in our time but that one definitely ranks up there as one of the worst!! Dam...I spent a number of years running heavy equipment and skidders. That one is huge and has dually wheels as well, looks as if it walked you right out!! Amazing what they can pull.

    I'll have to come down your way sometime. I was down in Allentown last weekend for the Eagle Arms gun show at the Econolodge off Rt.22. Reading isn't too far from there.
