well, ran into a bit of money trouble (mainly the trouble is a lack of it...) so my dreams of a M35 are on hold... also be floundering a bit and leaning more towards an M38A1.... I Like that with the M38 you can change a tire without needing a hoist....

So, while searching for something completely unrelated, I stumbled upon Engine Start Modules looks like an interesting idea... use a bunch of super caps to run your starter... no more cold start issues with low batteries... just curious if anyone has tried anything like that with their MV's...

I just read through all 12 pages of "death o a multifuel" And I found it interesting ... There is obviously something wrong with me...

I was going to ask about that... But I thought it was some sort of MV magic or something and I didn't want to sound stupid asking about it...which now that I think about it, sounds kind of stupid? everyone needs a hobby... preferably multiple hobbies... Life is to short not to waste it on...

So, at the top of the Deuce sub-forum, there is a link to a Deuce FAQ ... seemed like a good thing to read, but when I click on it I get a 404 not found page... where did the FAQ wander off too?

Quite probably true...

Option #2 The TM is one of the first places I checked, but I did not see it, so either it is expertly hidden, or they did not feel it was worth documenting... I just thought it may be fun to try and come up with a custom panel while I waited to find my next truck...

I am still looking for a deuce, and I am starting to think I live in the wrong part of the country... it seems everywhere else people have access to either much nicer trucks, much cheaper trucks, or in most cases it seems both... and shipping a truck across country is big $$ for some reason...

Another random question... Where can I find the dimensions of the instrument panel? I tried searching here and just got some thread about an axle falling off a 5 ton... I also tried searching google and found an interesting (but mostly useless) "Demonstration of Military Composites With Low...

True...

as far as the Allison goes... I actually do like the one in my truck... with the exception of one problem (that is a known problem and pretty much had to do with it being the first year for the "civilian" model trans) it has been really good... The Museum guy got back to me with some pics and...

Odd how threads progress... ask a question about wheels, and that some how morphs into a safety pros and cons of dualys... pretty cool really... Well, instead of sitting around moping about not having the coin for the very nice C&C truck, I started looking to see if there was anything...

I gave no doubts all that is true... Especially the "you have OTHER BIGGER problems" part... But still, something about it just looks scary... incredibly cool... but scary... that truck in rtk's post looks amazing.... so maybe scary mixed with a bit of truck envy/jealously?

Thanks for all the thoughts on the venting of the diffs... running all the lines up seems like a pretty cool idea... Now I just need to actually acquire an M35... Anyone know where I can get some nice big bags of cash? Cash always seems to help with the acquisition of new toys... I have also...

Thanks, it seems my previous research was wrong... one less thing to worry about...

Now back to the random questions Doing some research, it seems that: A) The Diff's are not vented B) The Diff's build up pressure and use that pressure to force the axle baring grease to lube the brakes. At first glance B) seems like a feature, one less thing that needs to be manually lubed...

I am not sure what you are referring to? none of my posts have any malice present, intended or otherwise... when Doghead mentioned the "No Zombie" rule I immediately removed the post myself, no questions asked... I only brought it up later in response to my questioning of the quality of my own...

are you sure that is real rule? just checked the rules section and didn't see anything about capitalization... or 6th grade english...

what makes this thread so "good"? its just a bunch of random questions, and I got yelled at for bringing up the undead beings that shall not be named(for fear of being yelled at again... or something...) .... seems to me its all good... truck question, while it looks like they are, are m35...

well, I still act like I am in my early 20's... does that count? but stuff hurts more/longer when things don't work out as planned... this whole getting old thing is not nearly as much fun as I was led to believe...
