It still won't turn with both rears locked, which is why I recommended that all 3 have separate engagement. but in a few years when you get them installed I'm sure you will let us know. Hopefully it doesn't take you two more years to replace your broken axle shafts & other driveline / suspension...
Other than troop seats, radios & shelters, nothing official was fitted.
US Military units regularly adapt vehicles to suit their needs.
Back in 1980, on USMC base Camp LeJeunne, The MP's had cages made of chain link fence in the back of many M880's
I'm not sure how I've known that for several years.
You do realize that they are rebuilt from old A2's
I've been told that there were improvements after the 1st 500 M35A3's, although I know who has #3 and it seems like a good truck.
Better have them go with Barrett Jackson, lots of people with...
Fab up some fender flares, kinda like they did for the A3 bodies.
16.5's are only going to add 1/4 inch of potential clearance.
not sure if they make plain steel 17" dually rims.

You are a rarity!
Welcome to the insanity, hope we don't scare you off.
PS
I know a single guy with several MV's in Michigans Huron National Forest.
Well if you ever get the air lockers installed, let us know how long it takes you to break some u joints and/or axle shafts.
I believe that you will benefit from adding a split brake system to your truck.
XM886A1
Well not really. but that came up recently in conversation.
M886 318-2v, 727 auto, NP203, 4.10 gears open diffs 8000gvw
D44-8f front & D60 rear

D60 front D70 Rear
XM886A2 same as A1 except as...
The A3 version & some late model USAF A2's had a 'split brake system' your passenger car does also.
The rest of the A2's have a single reservoir master cylinder that feeds all 6 wheel cylinders.
a split system has a dual reservoir master cylinder, typically 1 for the front and 1 for the rears...
Air lockers would be sweet.
I would have them individually actuated, so you could just engage 1 for some extra traction without the severe load on the driveline
Thanks Dave!
I have a plan in place and should have two more there by 9am
Then I'm off to get the Ambulance and hit the bank to get money for swap meet goodies :drool:
