I purchased my deuce with a 1,000 gallon water tank. The FD used it for years w/never an issue other than a transfer case issue that was the drivers fault.

I had a dead bat this w/e. Very little juice left in the truck even though I had driven it a few weeks ago. Many days below zero and in the single digits didnt' help. I put the charger on and noticed some SMOKE coming from the batt. Never saw that before. The needle on my charger was having...

I haven't rec'v most of the emails GL sends. I asked a phone answerer there and they told me that their email system doesn't seem to be that reliable....WOW

I've installed the kill switch that Mr. M109guy has shown and it works great for two reasons. If hidden it makes it more difficult to steal your truck and two, it is nice to know that if you hook right off of the batteries, nothing can be left on by accident especially if you have a 12V alt and...

I don't use the gaskets that comes w/the filters. Buy the 5070 gasket at Napa, they are $.84 each and work perfect. Use a dental pick to get old ones out of the gasket grooves. Also, sometimes the old gasket sticks to the can. If they've been on a long time that actually look like part of...

I feel like an idiot now thanks Clinto. I've looked at / wanted a C model forever and have never noticed the diff in tailgates. I'm always struggling to look for the lip and hinges and never paid attention to the tailgate. Now I suppose I'll bid based on the tailgate and find out someone just...

Very nice. It's kind of funny how when we do this kind of thing on purpose it is great fun but when it happens not on purpose we end up changing shorts.

Do any of you guys who sell a MV to another private party down the road have them fill out an EUC or take any other applicable measures? I've got someone who wants to buy a deuce and I'm not sure if I can sell it to him like I would any other vehicle. Thanks Jason

Here is a C. Do a search for "New guy with Turgbo Question" and you'll find my post from Dec. Take care.

Sorry I don't have the threads handy but the C and D motor do not specify the turbo. Leave it to the govt to make it more confuddling. The turbos look different. The D is "thicker or non tapered" on the snail shell and the C is more of a tapered snail shell. Again I'm no expert but many guys...

I too have ordered the 5070 gaskets and they installed in the groves perfectly. Lucky for me both old gaskets came out on the cans. A dental pick works well for removing old ones. They are sharp and catch the gasket but are not so tough that you can torque on it and damaged the seat. As...

Those look nice. What brand / size are they? My 25% NDTs need to go but I haven't decided on what to put on or whether to go w/singles. Have you used it much with these and if so how was the grip v/s NDTs?

Thanks a lot for the replies guys. My internet went down shortly after the initial post and I've been chomping for some pointers. The shut off cable is in but I will verify under the hood. I do get full RPM in neutral and the other 4 gears I checked the air cleaner indicator and double...

Hi guys. Long story short. Truck ran on the way home from the pickup at 53mph. Truck quit a few days later...bad fuel , filters etc? Truck runs great now having cleaned the tank new fuel, new fuel filters (all 3). It does run great only slow as the top speed is now 40mph at 1,600 RPM...

If everything is stock, the fuse is suppose to be a 4 amp per 9-2320-361-20, page 3-33 The trick of up sizing the fuse until it quits blowing usually ends badly. In some cases this is what guys did in a pinch and now 25 years later someone pulls one out and notices it is a 20 amp and...

Glad to hear you were able to stop it in time. We had a P2 fire truck run away on us in the Air Force. It sounded like jet engine by the time we got the doors open on the compartment. We pulled something that killed it but I don't recall what it was. Kind of spooky to be 15" away from a...

Hi guys. My truck is suppose to be a C model but it doesn't whistle. The previous owner took the stack off and routed the exhaust underneath near the fuel tank. Whould this eliminate the whistle? How can I check if they installed a D model turbo? Truck runs great so I assume the turbo...

It does not have the round front end and is the standard 5 speed with high / low TC. The red truck in my avatar is the one in question. CARNAC verified that it is a 1971 and I checked online and all it lists is "Jeep" The truck appears to be almost all original so I'm assuming all the name...

I use 800 or 850 CCA and they work fine as long as you have them charged up well. This is in 30deg weather too. There are boat loads of manuals for the M35 but the two I've found the most helpful are the 9-2320-361-20 and 10 both can be found on the resources tab listed above. There are...

I see in your signature block GPD and KJ listed. Is this General Products Division and Kaiser Jeep? What is the difference? When I bought mine they said it was a GMC so I assumed American General but the data plate list General Products Division. Thanks Jason
