May 10th, 2008. Greenupscott: You got a good deal on the trailer, but might I say, squawking about the weight is rather unnecessary. If you wanted a jeep or CUCV trailer, get one of these..... The M105 series were designed to follow the M35's with cargo through just about...

May 10th, 2008. :roll: Dear Steel Soldiers: Do any of our members out there have a spare Operators / Maintenance Manual for the M105A2 series of 1-1/2 Ton Cargo trailers they'd like to get rid of???? I purchased an ex OKLA Army National Guard unit in Norman,Ok, in the...

RE: Re: seat May 19th, 2008. Dear M16TY: Any reputable auto upholstery shop should be able to do the foam and the cover(s) for your reasonably cheap, BUT I would suggest modifying the bottom cushion thickness by increasing the amount of foam by say another inch, and...

May 10th, 2008. My M35A2 "Saddam's Nightmare" apparently has the chain from the period that the spring seat was applied, and the chain is welded to the front left seat mount bolt head, and it is not a small chain either!! I like to call it the "Baghdad Club", although as this truck has had...

RE: Re: Dash switch I.D. question April 27th, 2008. Dear Razorbacman: I refitted my 1971 Kaiser Jeep with one of these that was a take off from another deuce going to scrap and , man, the improvement over the old three lever is measurable at night it's much easier to find...

April 20th, 2008. rofl Rhinomike: The situation you describe is the normal one on an everyday M35 deuce with the three lever light switch. For whatever reason, when the Army designed the switch they did not intend the front parking lights to be illuminated...

April 19th, 2008. Good luck on your trip, and now I don't feel so bad getting 10 or 11 MPG out of a diesel M35A2 at 52-55 MPH on the road with a load (light)..... But gasoline is still a little cheaper then diesel so I'll burn a mixture of things. We had a bunch of M135/211's at...

April 19th, 2008. Nice Save on the wipers, Andy..... I see you got your M818 loose from GL!!! Given that Texas Diesel's @ $4.03 to 4.07 per gallon, I don't know if I could afford a 5 ton.... Nor do I want the required CDL that comes with it!! Set up some more pictures of your...

RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Brand new FMTV spotted April 19th, 2008. All things being equal, there's no way any of the FMTV's would have equalled properly modified and reengineered M35, M818, and M900 series vehicles...... If you want serious off road capability go for the larger series of...

April 18th, 2008. Dear ACKARUS: Looks like you have a Jeep Corp truck by its Identification Number 4K56471, just a bit younger then my 1971 Kaiser Jeep M35A2 ID No.04J43671, NSN#2320-00-077-1616; ID No. 04J-43671-0525-22392; Contract No.: DAAE-06-70c-0001. The Jeep Corp...

RE: GL -Figure this one out..... April 12th, 2008 Got ME? I thought I posted it in the General Conversations, and I would ask the Moderators to move the beastie as I can't figure out the move myself!! Also there are apparently inverters that will take this down to 60Hertz.... I...

RE: GL -Figure this one out..... April 12th, 2008. From What I can figure out the Generator's 400 HZ, but the specification seem to be that it brakes down to 120/208 1phase and 60 cycles. My railroad generator sets are the same way based on the number of poles and rotation rate,if not...

:drool: :roll: :twisted: :P :D April 12th, 2008. I guess I'll never figure out how GL works, it's probably a branch of the Illuminati or something, but I have to applaud them on this one. Thursday, the 10th of April, Sale No.3289 closes at 5:00PM EDT, and yesterday I find that I...
