    [Q] - Best way to remove lower bolt for rear lower A-arm?

    Nobody should be mocking you on this forum. That is a very legitimate question. I did mine like Mogman described.

    My first m35a1!..i think?

    Yes that is it. I see 0225 16289 that comes back as a 1967 year model M35A2 without winch. So yes you have a Memphis Equipment creation. Should be LD-465 naturally aspirated multifuel.

    Rebuilding Troop seats

    OEM is white oak, unless you have access to a planer, has to be milled to thickness and width and edges chamfered. Then painted. Then dozens of holes drilled. Of course disassembling the old racks and painting the staves is a huge pain as well.

    How should I do this? Rear trailing arm

    Technically those are called torque rods, here they are called dogbones. If one is shot, the others soon follow. Set aside a week of your time and replace them all. It’s no fun.

    My first m35a1!..i think?

    Someone posted this on G503. Look for faintly stamped numbers. Poor guy didn't hit the number stamps very hard after a long weekend of boozin there in Indiana.

    Hello everyone, new here.

    Do you know the back story on Eastern's M1025A2s? Is there a particular reason you wanted one of those as opposed to the zillion other newer ones being sold on GP?

    My first m35a1!..i think?

    That is actually not the serial number. Look for a number all by itself.

    My first m35a1!..i think?

    Welcome to the site! Truck looks great and is already set up for super singles. Might have been a M34. Might have been a truck that Memphis Equipment built up out of bits and pieces. The only way to know for sure what it was born as is to analyze the frame serial number. The cab data...

    S280 on a M1078.. Need ideas for lifting it off.

    S280s are delicate thin aluminum skinned structures. They are intended to be sling loaded and unloaded.

    84 Blazer "Thankful I'm alive"

    You had a 28' travel trailer hooked to a CUCV Blazer? Sounds like you had too little tongue weight and that sets you up for exactly what happened, especially on a light weight short wheelbase truck like the Blazer. The trailer will start to sway and rip the truck's rear end loose and then you...

    Original Style Warn 6k Capacity Electric Winch - Info Wanted

    The 1985 TMs will cover that. Possibly the Warn website has info. Back in the DRMO days, there would be triwalls full of those, all burned out.

    Texas FMV bumper stencil markings

    Yeah back when we got this law passed by the legislature in the early 90s, the registration numbers were all still on the hoods of vehicles that we were collecting at the time. I do believe that the registration number does not need to be on the outside of the vehicle to be approved by TXDMV.
