    Picking Up My First MV From Sparta driving it 450 miles

    Another endorsement for Jeff. He helped me a great deal too and helped me get the truck road worthy for a 675 miles recovery! Well worth the fee and he is supper reasonable.

    M35A3 Owners unite

    For those that want to ditch the CTIS my tire shop had a great solution to solve the cobbled together valve stem set up. When I upgraded to 395's, they put a brass fitting in the bung from a road grader and then reduced from large bore to smaller bore for standard valve stems. Should be...

    A3 Tire Source

    I know this is an old thread, but I just had my tires swapped at the local truck tire shop. They were very reasonable and suggested an upgrade for the valve stem. I removed the CTIS so I did not need to keep the stock stem. They used a road grader brass bung, large diameter. Then necked down...

    M35A3 Air Brakes

    Hard to tell from the post, but sounds similar to what my truck was doing. Sounded like it was blasting off. It was the priority air valve was shot. Took it out of the system and it has been great since.

    I would have to agree. Jeff not only did inspections for me, but he helped me get the truck road worthy and I drove it 675 miles to get home with it. I would nit have bought the truck without his advice and help.

    Another newbie I recently won a M109A4 in Sparta and will be going to get it this weekend. I had Jeff check out all of the trucks and it looks like I got one of the best ones there. I am glad there is not an EUC requirement on a 109 but that doesn't make much sense. I have been reading a lot...
