Early Wheels

[Danzeman]

Hello all first post working on a scout car and i need help identifying these wheels was told they may be off of a early deuce. Can anyone verify as they are surplus to my need and hopefully can help someone out with their resto

They could be early m34 combat wheels. I can check the book when I get home tonight, someone will probably answer before then. I’ve posted the part numbers here on the site before in another thread asking about them.

Porkchop is correct, early M34 wheels. Fits the 1950/51 Reo pattern deuce with the cargo bed with wheel wells. Post 'em for sale in the classifieds or pm me a price.

Agreed very early M34. Later M34s had demountable wheels with the retaining ring as on the M35 trucks..

I've seen them on M135's in some of the TM's and TB's.



I'd like to find a complete set of those sometime.

I don't think any GMC M135s were delivered with combat wheels, but what a cool upgrade!
I doubt you will ever find a set of 7 in one place. I have 6 and I got one here, two there etc.
Suggest pm the OP, he's looking to sell.

Just for the fun of it I put a set of the Later MLVW wheels and tires on my M135 to see what they looked like and how they rode.
