    Master cylinder replacement, 1987 m35a2c

    Sure looks like the one held in her hands is for the single circuit brake system. The old one still mounted to the truck is a dual circuit MC.

    If it’s a wrecker, check the clutch engagement lever back at the crane controls.

    Soft top install with ring mount?

    Don't jeopardize the integrity of the cab strength by cutting a gusset given your putting an M66 ring on the truck.

    Soft top install with ring mount?

    I cut some Strips of 1/4” rubber mud flap that went between the legs and the cab. That gave me room for the canvas cover.

    Just purchased an M54A1

    Mrgior21513, I agree with others that this truck should not be modified in any way. It's a great piece of MV history. This would make a great Vietnam gun truck build.

    M818 as a first truck - opinions

    I've had a M818 and it was fun to drive, easy to fix, but as everyone here has stated, everything is heavy! The other thing I didn't like about the M818 is that it'll beat the tar out of you without any weight on the back.
