Interesting, . . . it looks as if your replacement engine has a "D" turbo, but the exhaust is a N/A type (skinny stack and muffler under the cab) . Mine was originally a N/A also. Is your data plate there? Is it a '66 Kaiser-Jeep model? Here is an illustration of the spare tire carrier.

How are your metal fabrication/welding skills? I have looked at this tailgate many times, and it is very basic. If you are looking for a utilitarian replacement and not concerned with authenticity, you could make a suitable facsimile. The frame could be made from square tubing. The bottom...

Agreed Kenny. . . . . Or at least become a donor to other help others that have already been saved become complete. Vintage Iron look for a PM.

There are slight variations by manufacturer, but in general . . . 12.50 = 41" = 9.00x20 14.50 = 43" = 11.00x20

Just wanted to update this thread with a few new pics: This is the 12.5 R20 Continental tire that I got from www.militaryoffroadtires.net mounted on a M35A3 wheel. (I would be remiss if I did not thank Gimpy, Swbradley, and Patracy for helping make it happen - THANKS fellas ! ! ) This...

Good eye Kenny !!

I zoomed in on the cab pic that shows the data plate. It gets pretty "grainy", but sure looks like a dump truck illustration on the data plate. Also, see the air tanks mounted outside of the frame on the driver's side under the cab? That is a stock location for the 342. You can also...
