Multifuel Automatic Transmisson?
Here goes my first post of hopefully a never before asked question.
Will the Allison automatic transmisson used in the A3 work in a Multifuel A2 truck?
Does the bell housing fit?
Has anyone done this? How did you manage it?
My reason for asking, I...
Is there any "W I D E" wheels available (without cutting and welding) that will fit the deuce?
I was told that ALCOA does not make wheels with the deuce pattern. Does any other truck use the 6 lug pattern wheel?
(yes I searched)
Thanks,

I have been welding for quite a while but I seldom if ever do vertical welding. I need to weld an I-beam to a trailer.
The I-Beam is 3/16 in thick. I am welding it to heavier material.
I have a Miller DVI MIG welder using .035 wire and Argon / CO2 mixed gas.
I set the maching up...
I have been following several threads about the Bobbers. I understand that the rear-rear axle is moved forward to replace the front-rear axle. I have also been reading the thread about frame modifications for the bobbed duece with a M105 trailer axle under it.
Once a duece is bobbed, I...
I finally found two deuce models at the local Hobby Lobby. They are the 1/48 scale Tamilya Brand. 1942 2 1/2 Ton 6x6 Truck Too Cool. I picked up both of them since they seem to be so scarce.
Now all I need is my 1/1 scale model that will really be awesome.

Actually the Volkswagen Type 181 was used by the German Military until the 80's. Mine is a civilian version and currently laid out as an Urban Assualt Vehicle (UAV - SUV) to infiltrate the mall parking lots. It has an 1835cc engine with two two-barrel 40mm Weber Carbs. The tires are BFG...
I was thumbing through my GL wishlist the other night and some how a Steam Cleaner got mixed into my list. Feeling frisky I bid on it only to discover it was in Kansas.
If I win this thing, can some one pick it up and hold it for me until I can pick it up? It is pretty big, it has fork lift...
Has any one seen or heard of some doing a Cab Over Mod for the Deuce?
How hard is it to lengthen the chassis? Prehaps 10 or 12 feet.
Would it make the drive shaft to the rear crazy?
I see trucks running single tires on wider wheels. How does that work?
Yes I am a complete noobie and I...
Hello everyone.
I do not currently own a military vehicle. I am interested in converting an M35 into a heavy duty 4WD camper / motorhome.
Does any one know where I can obtain drawings or spec sheets on the M35 so I can get an idea of the general dimensions of the truck.
Thanks in advance...
