Wow! Real Leather seats and dash pad... How cool would that be!?
My dog would definitely be in heaven. He always has sensory overload when we go to the local construction store in the "leather gloves" section. No chewing. Just standing in front of the display sniffing deeply...

Well Dang! That is pretty neat... Bet nobody else has one mounted in their truck. Especially since your own looking kinda says the same thing. Yes, bless your poor children. :) Their daddy got bit by the Green Bug like the rest of us...
Looks like you and the family had a good time at...

Wonder if Freightliner Daimler-Benz has some sort of "flat panel dash" on one of their trucks? As many trucks as they build, you would think they would have the latest and greatest in fancy. They are building prototypes of their self-driving trucks. Makes you wonder if that might be...

That's pretty crummy. Somehow though people like that continue to stay in business. I understand a warranty - but slipping in the sneaky way for the vendor to get out of it "Just Ain't Right". Then again too, I guess that reading the paperwork is what we have to do to survive.
I agree that...

I hate to say it, but it's the gooberment.
They all have the same book.
But each one one of them interpret it differently.
Each state is different too, but as a private individual with a historic and collector vehicle - generally - the DOT folks and the local police will leave you alone...

It has been a long time since I last changed oil seals, but I do remember that it was never a quick easy job. I personally would always "Test Fit" the seals on the axle before hammering them into the hub. You can't feel that fit while holding a hundred pounds of drum and cramming it onto the...

Best thing for you to do is to "Do The Time". You have already done the crime :cool: (so to speak). It isn't sexy. It won't be fun. To be honest, nobody but you will ever know that it was done... Sad really.
The thing to do is remember that you have a twenty year old truck. It was built for...

Welcome to the Outfit!
The link that @Guyfang provided gets you to the right section of the site. There are "dash numbers" on the end of the file name that tell you what the purpose are for the books. For example a "Dash 10" means that TM is the equivalent of the owners manual in civilian...

Could be an inexpensive short term valve guide fix.
Thinking about small block Chevrolet heads that had "umbrella seals" inside the valve springs on the stock version of those cars. Primary job that they did was to keep the splash of oil from running down the valve stems - causing the oil...

The Deuce (M35) has been around for a lot of years. Wasn't called a M35 back in WWII but the body style was the same and did the same job. The M35 started life as a REO Motor Car Company vehicle in 1949.
The M35a3 generally has a 3116 Caterpillar power plant - all serviceable by CAT if your...

The aluminum diamond plate would be a heck of an idea.
No chance of rust that way...
Seems like you would have to find some sort of rubber mat to go under the plate - or the squeaks would drive you crazy.

Can you give any numbers from the data plates?
Just looking at it, I have seen a USMC version that looks a lot like it...
Is there a valve out on the side of the truck possibly - that needs to manually be pushed or pulled to release the water from the tank to the pump? Maybe you can look...
