    Whistler turbo vs. Non-whistler turbo

    RE: Re: Whistler turbo vs. Non-whistler turbo I happen to prefer the C turbo because I like the whistle too, but the D motor used to be more desirable. I say used to be because everyone wanted a D motor because of the upgrades until the hobby became flooded with guys and their M35A2s. Before...

    WARNING: if you are a buyer in Maryland

    RE: Re: title M725: I think you misunderstood me. I was the one who told Randy that Beltsville took the paperwork. I am only saying...and I am not sure how to make this more clear without saying it the way I have...go in like you know what you are doing. Understand that others use this...

    Last Chance for M35A3 in Barstow

    Mark: Snatch it up and sell a couple of the CUCVs to pay for it!

    M345 10 ton Trailer

    They are cool trailers, but they sit up so high because of the 1100s! I almost bought one from Winslow a few years back because the trailer was too high for my uses. I wanted to use it like a tag-along lowboy.

    Last Chance for M35A3 in Barstow

    Seems pretty reasonable for someone wanting an M35A3. There must be someone on the west coast that is after this truck. What is GL going to do to you if you back out? I think they are going to hit you with a 25% restocking fee.

    armor tow "hooks"

    Mike, now you need the tracked vehicle tow cable that is supposed to be used with those shackles!

    armor tow "hooks"

    The ones that SERMIS shows are from the M548 in case anyone else looks for them. They could be off of an M113, too...I have no idea, but I know those are the shackles that are on an M548.

    Whistler turbo vs. Non-whistler turbo

    My perfect scenario...D motor (improved pistons and head gasket that is not prone to blowing like the C) and a C turbo (I like the whistle). All in all, I'd prefer the D motor over the C because of the improvements. I've had two C motors that blew head gaskets, but never had a problem with any...

    How are you storing your Deuces? (Plural)

    Side by side, front to back.

    WARNING: if you are a buyer in Maryland

    M725: The MD DMV office you went to is patently wrong! At least two different DMV offices that I've been to have accepted this paperwork. The FL dealer reassignment form is an official dealer reassignment form issued by the State of Florida. I've never checked, but I was told that they are...

    4 color MERDC

    CCATLETT is correct.

    armor tow "hooks"

    There are various sizes. The ones that fit the M548, for example, are much smaller than those that fit on an M60. The ones on an M548 will fit a deuce, I believe.

    m944A1?

    Did you inspect it? Were all of the tools, machinery and accessories in the back? I could not look and therefore did not bid on it. I know there was another of these trucks up in PA recently...everything had been stripped out of the back.

    Rims from SE Virginia to Gilbert?

    Mike, these are rims for the 1400X20 that go on an M939 series truck. They are fairly big. I'd say that you will need a trailer. Plus, unless Chris has removed the tires, most still have rubber on them. They probably weigh in the range of 300 lbs. per tire/rim.

    4 color MERDC

    Hi Will, the 4 color camo went out in the 80s. That is the reason that most 4 color camo trucks look rough...they were painted over 20 years ago and have been touched up many, many times. I will say that I've seen some clean 4 color camo paint jobs so it could be that an individual unit may...

    Bees - Ouch....

    If you want to do a more thorough inspection, wait until after dark. They return to their nests at night and are less active. Be careful, though, as I am sure they will still "attack" even after dark.

    M35 A3 demand?

    Someone once told me that something is worth what someone will pay for it. With that said, the M35A3s are either way overpriced or other trucks are underpriced. I think Chris is correct with his price ranges. The thing I can't understand, though, is how an M35A3 will bring in the range of...

    Holy Oleo Batman - Ft Meade Prices

    The problem for me is my wife. She is fairly understanding when it comes to the trucks. However, up until recently, I kept my trucks at a farm where I rented space. My wife and I just bought a house with property so the trucks will be coming "home." My wife can understand owning the trucks...

    Mileage going up on towed deuces?

    Holy Oleo Batman - Ft Meade Prices

    The only question I have is who in their right mind would want 1,500 refurbished deuces? Let me correct that...who would want to pay for 1,500 refurb'ed trucks? They are out-dated. A foreign govt possibly? Why, when they can buy M939 series trucks from our govt all day long and probably...
