    I believe it is a a2 but I did not have much time to look as I was working at the time. Tomorrow will shed more light as far as condition and functions are concerned.

    Buying a m105 tomorrow anything I need to know before the purchase

    I am looking at a m105 tomorrow. I know nothing about them other than it is the correct trailer for my m35a2. I gave it a quick once over today when I saw it on the side of the road. It appears to be in decent condition with little rust.

    Under "new" vehicle build rules fr classic vehicles-pity we can't figure out a way!

    The gladiator is nothing more than a status symbol for people with disposable income. Just like most modern vehicles lately the manufacturers are building what they want and not what the customers want. But still people line up to buy even knowing it is not what they really want. It is so...

    Wheel questions

    They seem to be stud piloted because there is to much wiggle room between the hub and inner bore of the wheel. If you have ever worked on hub centric wheels you know right away that they are because of how tight they fit.

    Jeepsinker's M35A2 6BT Cummins swap ( pics and videos)

    I think some guys are hesitant to monetize because they think people will not watch because of the adds. I am saying I don’t mind watching the add because I know how much effort goes in to the channel. Your videos are very helpful to the community. for those of you that do not understand how...

    Jeepsinker's M35A2 6BT Cummins swap ( pics and videos)

    The adds are allowed by the person that has the YouTube channel. Look at it like this jeepsinker gets a cut when you watch a add on his channel. His efforts are worth much more than the pain of watching the add.

    Engine performance

    One day I am going to add a turbo to my truck but I may end up trying a more modern turbo with a wastegate and see if I can achieve lds like torque.

    M35a2 deuce with 395 duals ?????

    So I am going to be in need of some tires soon and would like to go to 395s but I am not interested in going single on the rear axles. I think it just looks plain silly with out duals. My question is can 395s be run as duals safely on the rear axles. I think I have seen it done before but can...

    Engine performance

    While driving home from the quarry with 10,000 lbs in the bed the truck performed perfectly except for the hills. One of the hills I was on I had to climb in low range and second gear. The truck would not hold rpm in third even with starting up the bottom of the hill at 2,400 rpm. My truck is a...

    Curt receiver hitch for the Deuce, 18,000lb/1,800lb

    I know this is slightly off topic but I believe it is pertinent information to the original discussion. when I worked for E-ONE if we needed to drill a hole in the frame for any reason it had to be in the side of the frame. We were not allowed in any circumstances to put a hole in the top or...

    Looking at a Deuce, Has Some Issues

    Congratulations on the purchase my truck ca lock the tires up on asphalt without (standing) on the pedal so if you have to push that hard there is definitely a assist issue. this is not always the case but can be useful for helping diagnose. Does the pedal have a ton of free play before it...

    Truck markings/identification

    Is there a way to know what kind of service my truck performed by these numbers.i think it would be neat to know but I also will not be devastated if it is not easy to research. And I guess that one day when I repaint the truck it would help me decide if I will paint it to match its historical...

    Water manifold leak can't find gaskets

    If you have the patience you can save lots of money by buying gasket paper and cutting your own out. I have been doing this for some of the projects I have been working on and I am very satisfied with the results. With a lot practice you can make gaskets that look as nice as purchased ones and...
