I'll be there!

Welcome from Orlando, Florida! You have some nice toys. And we like pictures.

When I re-stenciled my trucks, I tried to match the style that was previously on the truck. All of them are different, so I didn't get too concerned with trying to match a specific TM.

Take the alternator off and remove the rear end casting to tighten the loose bolt. It's easy to do. Depending on which bolt you are talking about, if you try using an impact wrench you may end up breaking the insulator or bolt. Here is the link to my alternator rebuild thread with pictures so...

Both alternators are isolated ground originally. Only the passenger side needs to be isolated ground.

Post a picture of the front battery.

Did you check the dash indicator lights to see if the bulbs are good?

I waited a couple of days before painting over the red oxide primer.

I hit the rust with a wire brush and then use Tractor Supply red oxide primer on the rusty areas. I paint over the primer with Behr. No problems with adhesion.

I like the peanut M&Ms. They're easy to snack on while rolling down the road!

RAYZER is in Sanford and can probably help. Shoot him a PM.

Welcome from central FL. Floridianson is not far in Newberry and has some trucks for sale. Not sure if any are M35A2s. Good luck in your search.

If you are not sure of the battery(s) condition, swap the batteries front to back and see if the problem changes. Over 15 volts is not good.

I was thinking it's and armored VW Thing.

Some regulators don't need the light in the circuit to turn on. Check the bulb. The voltage at each battery should be about 14.5.

When you say the voltmeter fluctuates, do you mean you can see it moving up and down while you are looking at it or does it move slowly over time? As everything heats up, you will see the voltmeter change. Mine runs near the top of the green when I first start it and it drops about one needle...

Just because you supply the information doesn't mean it will come back that way. I included the manufacturer's name for my trailer when I applied to GP for the title and it showed up with the manufacturer listed as "USMC". Maybe the manufacturer's name was too long and the person typing was...
