How about a current civilian deuce nut? Remove the horn button, try to find someone who will let you use their steering wheel puller, stuff the horn wire down the column a little way to protect it, pop the wheel off. The new horn button kit is an excellent upgrade, you will mount the new...
They are the same as civilian Budd wheel nuts. Your local truck parts or truck spring shop will have them in stock, Last I bought were about $1.75 each. Maybe higher now, I bought them 2 years ago. JT
Those gensets won't run in your area, too many wind generators setting up destructive EMF, loses pulse to the capacitive inductant digeradoos, makes big trouble. Let someone south east of you buy them. :-P
I thought it was one of John Winslow's as soon as I saw it, quite a few years ago my son and I saw our first 4x4 deuce when we stopped to visit with John at his place. That is where my JATonka XM 35A4 conversion deuce idea came from. Our claim to fame was using an M105 body and finishing the...
I came across about 75 American Bosch 2 hole injectors for our Multifuel engines, took them and 4 injector pumps and a screwed up injector pop tester (courtesy of one of our members) to DW Diesel Electric in Latham, NY last summer. They tested all the injectors and put about 15 in a "GOOD" box...
It is a 1967 Kaiser Jeep early Gun Truck on a brand new M35A2. In 67 there were mostly M35 and M35A1s over in Nam. I built the truck to the time frame for the earliest ones. They were deuces and they used what ever guns they could find. Mine has 2 1919A4s on ACAV shields and 1 M2HB on a rear...
And I am sorry for the sadness that reading the beginning of this post brings. Armyman30years+ was so excited about this year at Aberdeen. it will be a different show without the likes of him. JT
Big Elk50, no offense taken at all. These J-pipes are a son of a gun to ship, and they are not cheap when brand new military issue instead of after market stuff. I have been sending people all over the place to try to buy good used or new closer to home to save some of the shipping. This is the...
I find that the airpack that has not been lubricated often enough with a very small amount of OHT will almost always, as in ALWAYS, stick on when brakes are applied shortly after the OHT is added. I have screwed up 3 airpacs by adding OHT after I bought deuces from GL that hadn't been...
You can reach Arthur P Bloom of www.m35products.com at (631) 749 0100 to talk to him about disassembling the air-o-matic air cylinder. He also sells the new O-ring for that repair. It is common to use air to push the various hraulic and air cylinders apart, but you should be experienced at it...
the 2 1/2 ton 10000 lb winch still can't hold 300 feet of 1/2" cable and work with it, plus your line pull would be more reduced. so, maybe they meant 200 feet of 1/2" cable which is what is published in many operator and maintenance manuals. back to the 101
I know it sounds impossible, but what if someone made a mistake? That's what those last pages in all the TMs are for, no? JT My garwood 10K winches on the front of my deuces won't fit 300 of cable. unless you use sideboards
