Wow, about 20% of responders saying they didn't know, so I guess we DIDN'T "all know". As previously stated, be careful of collusion in your "discussions"... I'm not telling anyone here anything. Bring your wallets.

Don't take the converter out of the trans. Step 3 in acmunro's instructions cover disconnecting the converter. No need to disengage it from the front pump.

Sweet and rare rig! Congrats!

Runs is one thing. "Stops" is another thing altogether. And "Will stop every time you need it to on your trip home" is something totally different. Many of these trucks have been sitting for years. A few good stops can expose a rust-weakened brake-line, a weak hose, or a weak wheel cylinder. You...

Man, I liked the MERDC camo. It was unique. I think it was the only 4-color 900 I'd seen. The end of an era, I guess.

What makes this applicable? Sure, everything is interesting or unusual to someone. The last 5 or 6 that came up must not have been quite as interesting as this one...:roll:

Stu, Kenny: M880 cover on a CUCV

They waved back because they didin't know you weren't legit. Had they known you were illegal, they'd have written the ticket. You honestly think that driving around in a regular car with no plates would get you the same treatment? No way. They didn't know you weren't military. I believe what...

My mistake. I've only seen the M35 variants with Cummins engines and 5-speeds, but not with Cat engines (yet another reason not to cut it up). That truck might be the only one like it in civilian hands. As for the M36A2's in PA, they only have the body and frame in common with your truck. I...

To each their own, but why would you bob a truck as rare as that longbed??? Why not sell it to an MV guy/collector who will appreciate it/restore it and just bob a run-of-the mill deuce and swap a Cummins into it? What a crime...:roll:

That truck appears to be an M813. It's not a 900 series.

As far as I know, it was not produced (at least for US use). It basically would have been a fixed-side bodied M925A1. I think the military realized the usefulness of drop-sides and ordered all M923 & M925 drop-side trucks. In fact, the most recent TM's don't even reference the M924 or M926 on...

Mainly the overload springs in the rear of the M1028 (higher GVW), as well as a Trac-lok posi up front versus the M1008 open front axle.

Take your GL link out and only post the photos...

Is caging that chamber really going to help, if in fact the shoes are mis-adjusted and dragging? If it was an air problem to that chamber, I could see it, but wouldn't rotating the adjusters be the only way to go if they're not releasing regularly? To adjust the shoes with the adjusters...

If HAWKMAN can't find any more, I'll have two available. HAWKMAN, If you have any extra complete front shackle mounts I'll take a pair as well.

How about a passenger vent window assembly? Any M1009 tailgate crank handle assemblies?

Welcome aboard.

Or buy an NOS complete rear from Coleman's or Saturn or somebody...

If you're talking about the trans dipstick, it was answered in your other thread. The very last post.. ;) http://www.steelsoldiers.com/deuce/32438-m35a3-runs-but-still-need-parts-help.html
