    Transmission fluid leak through breather/vent

    Hey Guys, Just took possession of my HEMTT after having extensive work done including a newly rebuilt (surplus) Allison 740D transmission installed in the truck. Because it was rebuilt we decided to put TES295 transmission fluid in the transmission. Shifts great but it looks like I've lost a...

    HEMTT Lockup Solenoid

    The mechanic who has my truck is having trouble finding a wiring schematic for the lockup solenoid on the Allison 740D. I had a new transmission installed but in a short test drive he didn't think the solenoid was locking the torque converter. Unsure if the solenoid works, but he thinks it...

    Bought a HEMTT in NC on impulse. Advice wanted

    I was not in the market and was not planning on making a purchase, but I made an impulse buy on a 1989 M978 HEMTT Tanker truck at auction. It should run and drive.

    Why no Multi-Fuel engine?

    Let me preface this by saying I am still constantly reading and gaining information about military trucks and I don't know a lot (college classes take up a lot of time). But why don't 5 tons are other military trucks other than the m35a2 have multi fuel engines?

    Deuce owners in the Northeast

    Just wondering how many people m35a2 owners are in the Northeast and where they purchased their MV. I was going to purchase one awhile ago, but I'm finally getting around to it now. Also, if anyone is looking for a CUCV, someone in my town is selling one that is in good shape. Can get more...

    Find the right Deuce

    Disclaimer: I know very little about military surplus vehicles because I am just getting started. I've decided now is the time to purchase a deuce and was wondering what to look for in one. I know I want a M35A2, but that's about all I know. I've read some specs on different ones, but I know...
