    Who won the M36A3 in Wisconsin!?!

    M36A3 W/winch=RARE Question, I've read here that the A3 wheels are rated for 4,000lb each. My M36A2 W/winch & 900-20's weighs in about 15,750 plus the 10,000 on road cargo = 25,750lb The A3 has 6 tires that weigh about 250lb each It must be heavier than the A2 version yet 6 x 4,000(wheels) =...

    37" Radial Humvee tires

    I have had some success with pushing the tire down so one bead sticks, then flip the assy over with the rim on something so the weight of the tire sagging helps get the other bead to where it needs to go.

    Carc Compatability

    order 4 gallons at a time from PAINTS for the best price. General Jims had some Gillespie on the shelf last fall. It can be shot with or without hardener, obviously with hardener will be better for durability and recoating year after yaer.

    37" Radial Humvee tires

    Running the 36" bias plys on stock M880 rims myself, so no real air pressure help here. I run 25psi. Depending on the 16.5 rim, I have been told countless times that 16.5 rims do not have the ridge that retains the bead. and that 16.5 tires will come off at pressure of 20 and below. This is true...

    Accelerator for M35A2

    If it is hard to keep down, it must be spring pressure as any binding would reduce the force required to maintain a position. Gimp, one of mine got seized up over the winter.

    Sale cancelled

    my 1st one was an expensive M36A2 w/winch the EUC was sent to BC on the afternoon of 12-24 and was approved on Monday 1-5 the next two I did were within 2 or 3 weeks of end of auction. I think it is just luck of the draw, sometimes they are overloaded sometimes they are not.
