Think about this, too. Rather than using an elaborate setup piggybacking the light system and running it via a 12v converter, why not remove the brake lgihts temporarily from the M35 and bolt them temporarily on the trailer? Then, all you're have to do is extend the wiring.

Having a 12v and 24v deuce without touching the alternator I meant to hit the "New Thread" button, woops. I used to work in the test equipment industry, so I know that these things exist-a dc to dc converter. It's not as easy to convert as AC (Using electromagnetic induction, all you need is...

I am in Lucerne Valley, CA. it is near Apple Valley and Victorville. Yucca Valley is 40 miles the opposite direction.

Ok, so there is this man in town that buys military stuff like crazy. He has a couple M35's, and I got to talking with him about one, and he said he'd sell it to me for $2,500 which is what he says he paid for it. Well, I talk to him more baout it, and he says if i am so in love with it, then I...

Re: RE: Re: RE: Holy cow! Who engineered these things? In a world where many things designed to do a certain thing fail all the time under normal operating conditions, I wouldn't call your instinct a "disorder". I would call it "Intelligent anticipation".

That second link for the officers van is amazing, that si exactly what I have in mind, that is so sweet I can't believe it! What is this about the electrical box? I can't get these from a scrapyard... you mean there's a generator transfer switch assembly? And thanks for the M109 description.. I...

Re: Charlie's Truck OK I have goosebumps just looking at this thing... I aplologize, I don't know the terminology "M109" etc... Is that box ont he back of the above truck the standard military box he modified? If so, my hat goes off to him that is my ideal setup, that is amazing... Just watch...

Has anyone ever made their shop van into an rv type situation? I kinda want to enclose the bed of my M35... Where can I get the enclosed box item that replaces the bed?

I understand that-but the FDC is there for a reason. I.E. Manipulate one or two valves and it operates if the engine is running poorly, or whatever, without replacing hoses.

I have a question... Via manually actuated valves, or electronically actuated ones-what about making some extra plumbing and having a bypass/non bypass situation at the flip of a switch or lever(s)? So you can have the performance and non leakage of a bypassed FDC, but the ability to run...

Why did the miltary do it?

I like the idea of having an engine brake on the LD-465- how much will I be looking at? Did any M35's come with an engine brake from the facory?

I was talking to a farmer the other day who has the Hercules LD-465 engine (Diesel only, though) in a tractor. He says the Cummins engine in the new Dodges will do the same amount of work and use half the fuel. I was talking to the guy who is giving me the M35 (Who says I cannot be pulled over...

RE: Need help in obtaining registration and parts in Califor The engine bolt hole goes down into the crankcase, I put a wire down there and it came back covered in oil. As far as the transmission goes, I have no doubt it's contaminated. I don't want to half ass it, but I might have to move it...

RE: Need help in obtaining registration and parts in Califor Thank you guys for the information! I am in Lucerne Valley, CA (High desert, near Apple Valley/Victorville, and sometimes I go down the hill to Costa Mesa, CA. I definately need the manuals for this truck. I am involved in some...

Hello! A friend has given me an M35... I am waiting for him to give me the paperwork on it-he got it in a military auction. Is there anything i need to know as far as registering it in California goes? Also... I am missing the right hand side rearmost head bolt for the Cotninental LD-465...
