Quick question for y'all. I am running 54" Mich's on my bobbed deuce, but am dropping down to 49" tires. Can I reuse the 54 x 20" tubes in the 49" tires? Or would they be too big and cause problems? If so, any leads on just where I could get 49 x 20 tubes? I have been searching every tire and...

My truck has developed wobbly wheel syndrome, or as some say...death wobble. At 35 mph I get so much wobble that I can't even hold the steering wheel, moves about 2" either way. So OK, I figure maybe tie rod ends, king pins or wheel bearings. I found some play in the king pin (.020 up and down...

Wellllll, maybe it really WASN'T an accident...more like an "on purpose"....lol. Here is a link to YouTube, hope it works. Enjoy and post up the comments.

The local Harley Davidson shop had a Freedom Ride today from Audubon, NJ to Fort Dix/McGuire/Lakehurst installation. I just happened to be next door to the Harley dealer with my deuce when they started the run. So after I got permission, I was able to jump in at the end of the group (about 1,000...

OK, I started out by tearing into pinion bearing and seal replacement, as they were loose and leaking. No big deal. So I thought, my axle boots were split and oozing grease.....might as well take care that too, since I had a full kit to do all axle seals and boots. Started this afternoon with...

AAARRRGGHH, Master cylinder rebuilt, Airpack & slave cylinder rebuilt, added remote reservoir, and pressure bled system. Nothing, nada, nunya, pedal still goes to the floor. I had massive amounts of air at the wheel cylinders, but finally got straight fluid under pressure. But still no pedal...

OK, so I tore down my air pack for rebuild and found the air side to be in decent shape, had some brake fluid in it, but no rust whatsoever. Now on the other hand, the hydraulic side has a fair amount of pitting. Starting at the end with the brake light switch extending about 2 inches in, the...

The vent line to the master cylinder on my 71 deuce is pressurizing instead of venting. It has caused my 6 month old MC to constantly leak. I have a kit to rebuild the MC and a kit for the air pack. Am I heading in the right direction with this? What is supposed to be at the vent end of the line...

I went over the bridge to Eastern Surplus today to pick up a master cylinder rebuild kit and saw these beauties in their lot. Man, I felt like a pervert in a porno shop,,,lol, military smut. Enjoy. P.S. Great people at Eastern, if you get a chance stop by and see them.

My 71 M35 started overcharging the other night. I hadn't noticed the gauge, but sure did hear the belts screaming, after turning the power off and on a couple of times all was OK. I had the batteries load tested, one was good and the other marginal. I then had then generator spin tested at...

Here we go again. I had the in-tank pump go bad about 3 months ago, "Bob" left me sitting on the side of the road. Long story short, tested, and checked everything....pump would not spin. I replaced it with a NOS in-tank pump from TNJ Murray, expensive but, it got me running again. Also changed...

The armature in my starter fried, so I am replacing the whole thing with a gear reduction starter, got a pretty good deal on it. $230

First I did use the search button without any results that would help me with this. I was getting an intermittent no crank condition, several pushes of the starter button and it would fire right up. Yesterday I made a 50 mile trip, the truck sat for a couple of hours, then the same, first push...

Just perusing the forums this morning and decided to post up some pics of the shipping label attached to my M35A2. Thoughts or comments welcome.

I am a machinist, and want to make my own spin filter adapters. Does anybody have the specs (dimensions) for either or both fuel or oil filter setups? Thanx guys.

I was just perusing the MD GL listings. They have a few M35A3's listed. Nice looking/running trucks. Dang.....the fever is going up as I type. I've only had my bobbed A2 for 6 months and ALREADY feeling like I want to add an unmolested A3 to my driveway. I wonder if my wife would notice it...

Does anybody know of any laws prohibiting MV (M35A2) use on the trails in the Pine Barrens? I was told today that one ranger (maybe more) will be issuing citations to any deuces on "HIS" trails. Any thoughts what he could write them for? I am 100% legally registered as a historic Jeep truck, I...

I know, I know...pictures. I'm working on them, I have to upload to my computer and photo bucket, I'll add them after the Steelers game. Here is my question. Is it legal for me to re-stencil Military Police on the doors of my M35? In another post I mentioned that mine was in Kuwait, well it was...

I just got my 1971 M35a2 last night, was a long trip from VA after getting caught in a 2 hour traffic jam. Must have been a horrible accident, was about 50 miles south of Baltimore. Anyway, I was looking my MV over this AM and noticed a shipping sticker on the left side in front of the door, the...
