Using the LMTV on this project frees up the M35 bed to go on this frame.

Hi GentrysGarage, I have an A3. Are you asking for the distance from the Allison tranny to the transfer case (jackshaft length?) on my model M35(A3)? To all, I have edited out the "front" on the title to indicate that the winch and A-frame which is my project, is no longer designed for the...

Cherry pick it and offer low-ball pricing. Buy the stuff like a hard top (really light weight), good tires, engine that you could turn over for a profit (flip and learn) or save for when you have a project truck. FINISH SCHOOL before getting tied down with any of these money pits.

I built hardwood dry sorting machinery and had to help put up an 85' x 200' x 22' pole barn with this machine in January. It got terribly cold and the truck was outdoors at the site. Fluid would not flow at all and the pump cavitation might have destroyed parts if pushed. They had a large...

Hi Wally, The second winch sounds handy and electric was sure a lot easier to deal with than more hydraulics, I'm sure. Ones back is precious and any tool to stop the lifting has some value. With the short boom it would be even more important to have the second pull line. Do you have welding...

Wes, Have you ever seen a lower height deck that will hook to pintle hitch? We need capacity for a Cat excavator about 25K#. I have a frame 25' that I was going to build a fold down gooseneck, but now with the tractor truck gone, that plan is off the list.

Got rid of the M931 and dreams of a RGN trailer...now want one like Wes is using. Dam green disease.

Personally I like the plugs that fork truck batteries have.

I noticed on my RR rebuild 931 that there was a sharp knife cut in those wires on the back side. Then I noticed the breather on PS was missing too. I had the feeling that it was a strategically placed cut and was intentional. It appears to be a pressure switch or transducer. I had a spot...

Chris...I can't do the Frankentop...LOL. I can't do it. You are right for a work platform but ugly + somewhat ugly (might =) not good. But the way it is made may be worth some copy. It's square tube and plate isn't it? PP, I always thought the boomtruck engine was the 391 and was...

It would be worth a real rebuild and kept in a dry home. I wonder if military ever used an F600 to pattern a paint scheme from. Probably just OD. I bought (3) M105's when they were around and the tires had nubs to give it new 9.00 NDCC shoes. I did a valve job, carb build and dual exhaust...

Oh yea Chris...good links !! I'm getting many ideas from them while thinking of attaching to and reinforcing the deuce bed. What I didn't see is using the winch to pull something directly up onto a tilted bed (like a car hauler) that also had a jib. I assume the roller at the rear is to pull...

Rockwell and Rockwell transfer case...yes lockouts (would fit the M35 also).

Thanks Ron, I sold the M931A2 so am working with an M35A3. I'll use the cargo bed and unlike the one linked, will make it dump. I just saw the jib and the rear roller and posted it up for some design ideas (not buying it). The OEM bed will take some serious reinforcement and a stout scissor...

Oh yea, now I see it in the photo also. I don't have skin in the LMTV game. But I design by the fact that 3 points determine a plane. Mounts better be darn solid for a plow.

The weight problem of the front forces the plan for the winch and A-frame crane to move to the back. I would mount the winch on a frame at the front of the bed. It would not be attached to the truck frame. It could make pulling stuff up onto the bed, bed tilt (dump) and having a removable...

Is that drawing correct...that there is no crossmember on the front except the bumper?

Trump is going to give you a few dollars more in your paycheck and say how bigly great it is. Good luck on the tax return.

He says those four tires in the classified I linked do not have any cracking. I've seen more than one vendor asking $300 each on the A3 wheel alone so $300 each for good 14.5 + wheel seems like a very good deal...and close to you. Maybe $500 would get you 2 (although he says he wants to sell...
