Got a 1969 Kaiser. I bought a front wiring harness for a gas truck, says it can be adapted to use in a Multi-fuel truck. Does anyone know what is required to do so?

Anyone???

No, I'm pretty sure Hydra is in there, six of the heads are stuck in the cylinders, three more thrashing around trying to bite!

I have a Deuce that got possibly hydra locked doing rescues during Hurricane Harvey. Closest source I have found for engines is Liberty Hill Texas. Anyone know of a closer place?

Thanks for the quick response!

Got a wheel cylinder out on a deuce. It is at a location where we can't work on it. It was suggested we plug off that line, and drive slowly on back roads to the shop. Is this feasible?

We have three M35A2s(I'm pretty sure that's what they are) of various vintage. We put A/C and power steering on one, but other than that, haven't done much except change filters. I am doing a lot of reading on this great forum to learn about these trucks. I know several guys who used to drive...

I am about to rebuild a wheel cylinder. Is there any tell tale signs that I need to check the hubs as well while I am in there?

My thoughts too.

The failure was at the splines; one twisted, one snapped.

Yes 395/85R20 I believe. It is over and done now, just don't want it again. Thanks for the replies.

Any updates?

This was when I was fairly new working here, wasn't the manager yet, just a grunt. I took a few weeks off, to come back and find that the truck was in the shop, and expensive parts already ordered(back ordered). Blindly throwing money at the problem, no research. Could have just bolted a used...

Oh I went to the shop and saw the axles myself. This is a trusted mechanic and friend who we have done business with for decades(though I don't know him to be an expert in military vehicles). Back in 1980 when I was 12, I hung the front wheels of Dad's pickup truck over the bulkhead, almost put...

I'm pretty new to the Deuce scene. My dad has three deuces, two are bobbed(4 wheels). He is 70 and has limited knowledge/experience with these things. We use them mostly in town for parades, and showing off at charity benefits we do for veterans(we are a 501c charity fundraising organization)...

Here is a picture of the dash plate:

This is my dad's truck. He's 70 years old and I am in charge of repairing/maintaining his three deuce trucks. I think this is an M35A3. This plate is on the dash. It has power steering(not working) and automatic transmission. I want to know exactly what year it is, what model(M35A3?), etc. so...
