    All the tail lights (brake, turn signal, etc.) worked on my old housings. Replaced the tail light housings with new ones because the faceplates were messed up. All the lights work EXCEPT the brake light. I noticed in the old housing that the bulb for the brake/signal is a 2 filament bulb but...

    M35A2 - What are the mechanical weakest links?

    My M35A2 is a recent purchase. Tried driving the truck from CA to TX but the clutch plate went out in AZ. Replaced the clutch plate once it arrived in TX. Later one of the radiator hoses blew, I didn't know how old the radiator rubber hoses are so I replaced them all. Got to thinking I...

    Jatonka Fuel Filters - Any water issues?

    Thinking of installing the Jatonka fuel filters. I know people on this site recommend them. I noticed that the Jatonka secondary fuel filters do not have drain valves. Is this a problem? The Jatonka primary fuel filter has a drain valve incorporated into the filter, I guess this is adequate...

    Any Wiring Tips

    Thanks for the tips and links! I did see that Erik's has the complete front and rear harness. I'll probably get them eventually and in the meantime I'll check the grounds. I did notice a bit of smoke coming from the console while driving it this past Sunday. Guess I'll keep the fire...

    I have been thinking of replacing the front wiring harness. I recently replaced the fuel gauge and noticed that the wiring behind the console was a bit frayed. I can also reach my hand under the console while the engine is running, wiggle the wiring and watch the gauges bounce around. I've...

    Antifreeze squirting all over

    Wow, now I am really curious to take another look at my truck. I have flushed the system, replaced the radiator cap, etc. At the moment I swear that the only thing I have is the filler neck without the overflow tube. At least I know where to look. Thanks all.

    Thanks, I did't know those valves had an official name. Should be easy enough.

    Coolant Leak

    A shrader valve? Is this something I can pick up at NAPA? I'll do a google search too. Thanks for the tip!

    Coolant Leak

    It doesn't appear as though the hose I replaced was the problem. The leak must be someplace else.

    Coolant Leak

    I've got an M35A2 that I picked up in CA and drove to TX back in September. The truck ran great and the temperature never went above 190 degrees. On a recent short drive I smelled antifreeze inside the cab and then noticed the antifreeze coming in along the drivers floor and on the left front...

    4th Semi-Annual Texas MV Rally

    I'd sure like to attend. I am picking up my first M35A2 next weekend and would enjoy getting it a little dirty in November. Exactly where is the rally being held? Is the cost $300 per MV? Thanks.
