The a3 is the only factory built M105 trailer with surge brakes, radial tires, spare tire mounted on the bed front, tire jack and the all important tailgate ladder. Also included are marker lights and tail lights recessed into the rear of the bed. The landing gear leg is a weak point of the...

You need to apply for them after removal from the site location unlike purchasing from GSA.

I own two of them and one is 12' and the other is 14' A lot depends on what company made the trailer. They are very heavy. Much heavier than any civy commercial trailer. Clear as mud.

Big bike wheel on landing gear unless changed out says it's old, probably A1. As far as changing the axle out to civy, no problem. Just order a 5K axle with electric brakes and your life will be easy.

The M35a3 does use a hydraulic winch. Power comes from a hydraulic pump mounted to the side of the automatic transmission. The lines run along side the frame rails to the bumper extension mounted winch. You aren't going to like the price of the associated parts. Last M35a3 used winch I saw...

One member here had a generator shipped to him to have it lost in transit. I don't believe that it was ever found. The only thing that the insurance company is going to payout, it what you paid for the set. I could have been the best deal in a life time, but Sorry Charlie, you loose. Being...

A couple of things to consider about hooking the CTIS back up. The engine mounted air compressor takes forever to re-air the tires from 30 to 85 psi. If the compressor were larger it would help, but its not. The cost of the CTIS parts far out weighs the benefits for typical...

The drums will help with keeping the road crap from getting into the seals. Also the threaded portion of the studs holding the bearing assembly will rust up quickly, which might cause you problems down the road if you ever need to replace them.

Both my M101a3 and M116a3 trailers came with the 37/12.50x16.5 HWMMV bead lock wheels and Goodyear radial tires on them. There is plenty of clearance on the parking brake cables. You might consider placing a set of small coil springs on the cables to route them to the centerline of the trailer.

Your Maryland learners permit for the CDL does not allow you to operate outside of Maryland. You need someone with you that holds a valid class A license with you while operating under your learners permit. Also, you need to verify what the gross combined weight you have your dually registered...

If the loaded trailer weight exceeds 10K, you need a class B license, not nessarly a CDL unless you are doing the transportation as a business. What is the listed manufacturers GVW on you dually? Again, if you are purchasing these trucks as a business, now your dually needs and IFTA number and...

Watch those farm plates, as there typically is a limit on the distance you are allowed to venture from your farm. Virginia was listed as 175 miles from your farm, and you can’t cross state lines. I think the reason most people register their vehicle as "Antique" is; cheap insurance, reduced...

Don't think so. Your registration from Virginia has to be accepted as-is. Now Farm Tags are a different story due to the commercial nature of the business.

Most states place limitations on vehicles registered as Antique. Some limit you to less than 5,000 miles per year. Others specify, Saturdays, Sundays, parades or transporting the vehicle to be worked on. Maryland has you sign an affidavit that the vehicle is not to be used for daily...

I pulled a copy of the qualified products list for Mil-L-8383 and there was only one source listed. Octagon Process, Inc. 596 River Rd edgewater, NJ 07020 The product name is Octoil SCFH-140. The only info found for this product is a blog from the bobistheoilguy. Mil-L-8383 - Seeking...

Good luck with the plan, just don't tell anyone that you are going to win a truck 2200 miles away or someone might just run up the bid price. California A3 trucks show up on a regular basis. You might pay more for one in state, but once you figure in the time and shipping costs, you could...

Welcome to the fever, green fever that is. Differences between the M-35 A2 and A3. A2 has a multi fuel engine, some with and some without turbo, 5 speed manual transmission, manual steering, single cylinder brake system, produced until 1987 or there about. Late versions may or may not have...

I ran a Mori Seki 20hp milling machine off of a MEP-005 for almost 3 years before the neighbors complaints became too much to deal with. It was quiet, but the diesel fumes bothered them on a cooler night when they had windows open. The local power campany would not run three phsae electric to my...

Once again, the text that I posted stated nothing about reclassifying anything. What they wrote is that Uncle Sam decided to surplus some items, then at a later date or time decided that they needed the items after all. I have no issue on demil items, but general commodity items like tents...
