I'm not sure, I have not looked into it yet. to be honest I really am not fond of the light switch or the wireing, I may end up gutting it and going with LED lights with a standard 3 possition light switch. I have had nothing but truble with the lights on my M35
If its ready by Saturday I will make it out to Brads But I dont think I will drive it out to Tumwater. my lights don't work yet so I need a chase vehicle (maybe my brother in my M35A2C) and Tumwater is 10miles the wrong way for me.
I only need to make two right turns to get to Brads :driver...

I orderd all new filters and a new turbo elbow pipe (EXHAUST), it had a fist sized hole in it. I'm hoping the turbo is'nt shot, the hole is close enough to the exhaust turbine for it to get a blast of cold air. the parts should be here on Thursday. I will post pics when the parts come in
I picked up my M109A3 from Fort Lewis with Scott today, It was a pretty fun recovery. We jumped the truck and it fired right up, spent about 2 hours getting the brakes working with a little help (Thanks Mike!), aired up the tires and we hit the road.
We made it about 3 miles (trying to get...
If you are able to get it re-soldered have you considered mounting an external transmission cooler? maybe a engine oil cooler? it will also help the life of your transmission, it sounds like your transmission got really hot going up the steep hills. 2cents
