On my home computer only, when I try and view SS, most of the time all I get is an olive drab background displayed on my screen. Repeated refreshing doesn't improve things but after an unpredictable period, sometimes, the site will load and be readable. I've cleared caches, cookies and the...

Think I'll have to start by loosening the wheel havles since taking the stems out of both valve bodies doesn't move any air which tells me the problem is "upstream" being either in the "T" block itself or even more gunk inside the wheel. But thanks for the tip about trying to break it free with...

It's the only wheel on the truck with two valve stems but I doubt that is really the problem. I'm guessing either there is a clog at the "T" block since neither valve stem works, or this tire has been foam filled. Guess either way, slowly unbolting the rim bolts to control the air release is...

When you say they pumped red RTV into everything you mean what they left on the wheel after pulling the CTIS off, or did they try and fill the tire with it too? If that is what happened in this case, any hints on getting it out? How did you start the dismount of the tire with air still in it?

Here are a couple of pics to illustrate what I've got. This first one is a view from under the truck looking at the backside of the wheel. Note the second valve stem facing to the inside of the truck. The tube going through the wheel goes to a conventional (non CTIS) valve stem on the...

Thanks for the reponse and diagram. I"ll see if I can turn up an image of what I'm calling the "T" fitting. The LA National Guard disabled the system and removed many of the CTIS components. There is no CTIS valve on my truck wheels now. I haven't removed the wheel from the truck yet but...

My apologies to those of you seasoned enough to have held the TM while Moses changed the wheel on the first tactical chariot, but I haven't seen this problem before. Recently acquired M35A3 on which the LA National Guard had disabled the CTIS. While checking tire pressures before getting on...

Take a look here if you want really good insulation and sound deadening. Introduction DynaMat Products The stuff is easy to use and cut but as others have noted, it will not help with condenstaion or rain water getting between it and the steel floor and you'll still need to cover DynaMat with...

One week into the A3 adventure and after letting the truck sit for 6 days the air had of course bled down to zero. Fired up the engine, low air buzzer and light are on as expected, but noticed the air pressure gauge wasn't moving. After 45 to 60 seconds the gauge jumped from 0 to 60, the low...

M35A3 air filter pics Just for fun, here are a couple of pictures of the current correct air filter on the left and a close up of the NSN. Would anyone care to assist in deciphering that in search of a commerical replacement? The filter on the right is a NAPA6682 which also crosses to a...

I just got a M35A3, please note the A3 in the designation before responding as this is NOT an A2. I'm looking for a replacement air filter number, preferably one that can be obtained locally. What I do know is this, many of the air filter part number responses in other threads must be for...

I'm just climbing into a window issue myself, but no, yours are not operating correctly. They should slide up and down with ease if properly assembled and adjusted. I'd look for binding in the track perhaps where the felt liner is, or open the access door and confirm all clips are in place...

Thanks for the explainations, the TM reference and most of all, the diagram. Everyone in the other posts mentions adjusting the "screw" but as seen, there are actually two threaded adjustments and I was about to crank on the wrong one. That would compensate just for cable stretch I'm guessing...

Can someone direct me to the TM and Work Package reference for the proper adjustment of the A3 parking brake? I get the concept that many just crank down on the adjustment by the parking brake drum until it feels good, but I'm looking for some actual reference measurements and diagrams. I've...

Thanks Gringeltaube, the exploded view is what I needed. Got the window and frame out as well as the regulator. The clips were in the bottom of the door, guess one had popped off prompting the prior owner to start the disassembly. Anyone using anything other that white lithium grease...

Just got my M35A3 yesterday and was wondering if anyone had a good exploded parts view of the window regulator/door assembly? The passenger side window is halfway down in the door and the regulator is partially dismounted by the prior owner and I'm not seeing how to remove it for repair, or how...
