It must just be me since I have done several searches and can't find anyone who has had a problem re-installing the deuce brake shoe return spring. I popped the spring off for a wheel cylinder replacement using the larger Lisle spring removal tool with no problem. However the return spring...

Not quite the correct forum but close. Has anyone seen any pricing on the Ford G8T 1.5 ton. I'm researching for a family member who is trying to help a friend with an estate sale that includes one that appears to mostly complete, may be an older restoration or at least had better than average...

Does anyone have any good tips on doing a tach cable replacement on a deuce? I believe the manual says the radiator must be moved to get access up front. Can it be done without messing with the radiator?

Don't know if this will ever help anyone but back in March I purchased a NOS cargo cover with bows and straps on EBAY listed for a 2 1/2 ton. It was an expensive freight item from GA to TX and I didn't get into the box for a while. Long story short when I did unpack I found that it is a...

Looking for Goat wiper motor 2540-01-133-7120/116634501. Also as used on the wrecker cab of an M819.

How many cargo cover bows does the M36a2 have?

Anyone know what military function is this trailer designed for?

Back around the turn of the century, or shortly thereafter, I picked up a nice straight rust-free M715 from the GSA in Arkansas. I got the truck back to OD from fire department red with the exception of the dash. I ran the truck a little but it soon turned into a non-runner with low...

In the SS parts cross reference list the NAPA 1662 (lmp) is listed as the correct stop and turn signal bulb for all military but when I bring up the NAPA catalog it shows a twin contact base and staggered side pin 24v bulb. The burned out bulb I removed from my M35 and cross checked to my M715...

To buttom up my IP I need some safety for the fuel cut off assembly. Since I'll probably have to order from McMaster Carr does anyone know the wire gauge? I'm guessing around 20+.

While cleaning up my rusty fuel tank, pump, etc. I noted that the fuel cap has a small propellor like tab on the tank side center of the cap that allows shifting from a vented to non-vented condition for fording. I can't find any reference to this fuel cap feature in the -10 section on fording...

After offloading a two-year old full tank of diesel on my recently purchased non-running truck, I've pulled the tank and have it out for cleaning. I'm now left with dealing with the fuel pump that suffers from rust at the upper portion that was not submerged in fuel. I've done an initial wash...

Since acquiring my truck nearly two months it has proven to be a 'one touch to the starter button' process to crank. The truck is stored about 180 miles from my house so I can only get to it on weekends. A week ago I cranked it and let it run for a bit with no problems and did the normal shut...

I've traced an air leak on my recently purchased truck to the line connection at the rear of the air gauge. The coupling nut is screwed down mega tight on the gauge but the line swivels at the coupling nut where it adapts to the short flex air line under the dash. Is there any trick to...

After working my way up from '44 MB to M715's to CUCV's I acquired my first M35 last week. Thanks to info from the site it is a '71 sold by GL at Fort Sam Houston. Turn in unit was nice enough to fully fill the tank to limit rust problems. With hot batteries it fired on the first touch of the...

I just received an M35A2 from GL event 6011 out of Fort Sam Houston. Can anyone provide a known build year for an American General with a serial number in the 0525-196XX range?
