    New tire option for M939 (M923A2) 1991?!

    So, Michelin XZL tires in NOS condition are drying up. Many worn/used tires floating around. Rather than upsize to the 16.00r20 or do the 395s, would these fit a standard M923A2 wheel without modification? The dimensions look right. Is this some ballooned out ag tire or will this work? Having...

    Painting cargo cover?

    Using Rapco or similar spray paint, can the troop/cargo cover be effectively painted? I bought an extra cargo cover at a good price. But it is desert tan and not the standard camo pattern I have on my other cover. Can it be painted to match after proper prep/cleaning or will it fail quickly and...

    The 14.00r20 Michelin XZL tires on my M923A2 are about 15 years old. They have 80+% tread. However, there are a number of small cracks in the side wall, presumably due to age, UV, etc. Are these tires safe to run or do they need to be replaced? (Note: The photos below are highly zoomed as you...

    Question about folding tailgate strength and ramps

    Hi folks. I recently acquired a 1991 BMY M923A2. I plan to use it for many things including possibly transporting my track car to events. The ramps I plan to use have a right-angle lip to "anchor" into the top of platform. The beds on our M923s don't have a recess or threshold for that lip to...

    Anyone have an M35 in the Sacramento area?

    I was hoping someone would be kind enough to "introduce" me to their M35 within an hour of Sacramento. I am very keen on purchasing one sometime in the next year or so and would like to check out one out in person. I'll buy fuel, beer, lunch, whatever for an opportunity to check one out and...
