    And also, to Papa Bear. PB there are times when were probably driving you to drink, but Thank You for putting up with us month after month, year after year. Because you are the MV of the month, and MV of the year, and with out you these events would not happen.

    Steel Soldiers MV of the YEAR 2020 - VOTE HERE

    We have had over 2000 views, and only 77 members have chosen to vote. I think to persuade more members to vote, we need to put out an incentive. How about one of PBs autographed 50 Cal. ammo cans, one of PBs favorite MTech field tools, a couple of PBs favorite Georgia Cigars, and a couple of PBs...

    Guy I was thinking along those lines of a front bumper step, so I bought a used folding one like this from a friend late last year. It's complete along with umpteen coats of paint, so I dropped it off at the sandblaster and hope to have it back this weekend.

    FUTURE IMPROVEMENTS. (Pic 1) A while back I purchased a brand new M35A2 heater from one of our MVCC members, and hope to have it installed this spring when the weather warms up a bit. (Pic 2) I picked up an RAK15/2 MRE Ration Heater a couple months ago from GP, and since my truck has 2 driver...

    Steel Soldiers MV of the YEAR 2020 - VOTE HERE

    As I totter into antiquity, I find myself needing help from time to time to do things that came easy a few years ago. Most of this is due to major back and neck surgery, that prevents me from doing things like lifting the medium tow bar out of the bed of the truck, and carrying/dragging it to...

    Steel Soldiers MV of the YEAR 2020 - VOTE HERE

    A couple years ago I installed new front windows and seals, and the new seals make for a drier cab in rainy weather. Now all I need is a hard top and the cab will stay drier with less draft. When we purchased the M35A2 there was a bench seat on the passenger side. My Wife (navigator) complained...

    The latest change to the M35A2C this past summer was the change from 9X20 tires, to 11X20 tires. I found these new 11X20 Titan tires on GP in Central Washington State. After a poor weather drive through the Cascade Mountains to pick the tires up, we were fortunate to have good weather on our...

    One of the most difficult projects on the M35A2 was the installation of a 10,000lb. Garwood winch. I ordered the winch from a seller in the Midwest. It was complete, but it had a lot of rust everywhere that made it difficult to disassemble. After I disassembled and sandblasted just about...

    After getting the M35A2C home, I sanded and painted the truck Woodland Green. One of the modifications I made was to upgrade the truck with an M52A2 air cleaner assembly that I had, for the day when I would install an LDS Multi-Fuel engine. There is some cutting and welding necessary to the M52...

    Here is our 1971 M35A2C on pick up day in March 2007 at Victorville, California. The truck originally came from the US Army at Fort Irwin in the California High Desert. The Wife and I drove her home with out any major problems. I took it easy so a 4 hour drive turned into 6 hours and we had a...
