By the time you remove everything the TM tells you to remove for flat towing, you could have had it on a trailer and be half way back home after stopping for lunch . They're not THAT heavy, a decent 8 lug tandem axle trailer will haul it if it will fit on . Don't tie off the steering wheel if...

Originally from Farmington Hills / Lansing, left long ago, still have property in White Cloud, miss it back there .

Also should be done after engine cools completely IMO

A little comparison to the old Deuce's

Keep that in mind thanks, one is kinda wore down, so on the hunt for another more better with rim ...

New To Me M931A2 Acquired this beast yesterday in a trade, It should arrive today, someone stole the batteries out of it, soon as that is remedied it should be mobile, local too, only about ten miles from the shop .

Should be an M45A2, very cool would love to have that, please don't tear it apart . There are millions of old M35A2 Deuce's around in any possible configuration you could want already . Post up more pics !

Wow, wish I had know about this, never saw this thread being a Newb and all, looking forward to next year, maybe there are others, need to get on a list ?

My buddy has a few Allison transmissions new (or possibly reconditioned) still in the crate he bought from Military Auctions, not sure if they are the same as what you need tho, he says they are a three speed transmission . I would imagine he would sell them quite reasonable ? not sure how to...

Maybe go to any parts store, or a friendly neighbors back 40 and get a regular old stock coil for a 60s 70s Ford pickup or whatever and put it on and see if problem persists, that would also answer coil heat soak question ...

Electronic ignition, like, Pertronix ? If yes, are you still using the ballast resistors or resistor wire in the feed to the ignition coil or the distributor ? If so remove them, run straight feeds .

M50 H2O distributor Got my new to me (and the truck) cab put on yesterday, Easter Sun. Clutch and trans all put back together and adjusted Sat. the day before . Need the paint the entire truck back to the old dark green, not sure where to find that, but I'm betting the info is in here...

I have a spare M50 tank with the PTO shaft and rear sprocket still on it . It was in a rollover, but you can cut the outer aluminum skin off and remove the insulation and the inner tank is fine, build your own enclosure or leave it be . Looks like someone already found an old metal top for you...

That sounds like an interesting story, and I have heard a few about Bonners Ferry, sounds like a good place to retire . HMU if you ever get back down this a way ....

Put a new clutch in yesterday and put it all back together, need to fine tune the freeplay and should be good to go . Happy Easter everyone .

If you are going to make the truck do work and put a dump bed on it, I sure wouldn't bob it, you lose your wheelbase, possibly frame length, and load carrying capacity all in one shot .

I dug around in there a bit and didn't see a place to upload pics of my old truck, here is a pic of the CD sticker that is still up in the back of the cab behind driver . Things are sort of on hold for this truck at the moment as I focus on my M50/M35A2 to make sure it is ready for inspection...

Took the water tank off of my 1963 Studebaker M50 yesterday to replace the rotted wood rails in between the tank and the frame rails, and make doing some upcoming maintenance a bit easier (brakes, T-case replacement etc.) While I was doing that I may have bought a couple other Deuces, one is...

Could you possibly dumb this down to laymens terms / 3rd grade level of understanding as I may need to also do this with my truck, or at least have it as an option, I am NOT an electrician as you may have already gathered . Thanks .
