    Ideal Tire setup on M35a2

    I had my mind made up at one time and now I cannot decide and would like to pick minds and see about the options… What I would like: Larger sized tires than the 9.00x20. Keep the trailering aspect of the beast. Ease (relative) of changing tires by myself on the side of the road. Availability...

    deuce air compressor

    Looks like the air compressor on my m35a2 took a dump. Was wondering how much of a PIA it is to change the pulley over to the new one, any special tools necessary? Figure a pulley puller and that is about it.
