I just wanted to take time to THANK you for your information. You have been a big help to me. I don,t think my Grandson would go to sleep in my Deuce, he is way to excided and my Deuce is kind of loud but he likes that also. Thanks again.

Thanks. I have tried my brakes with air pressure built up and with NO airpressure and I can't tell any differance in stopping. So I am sure my airpack needs overhauling. Can you give me any info on how you made your bleeder? I would like to make one if possible. I wish there was a place you...

This is great. Thanks so much. I plan to rebuild my airpack soon. Can you just BLEED the airpack when you reinstall it? Is it necessarty to BLEED all of the brakes? Thanks very much. armyvet.

Thanks very much. I guess I worry to much about my brakes. I really enjoy driving my deuce but we need to know that we can stop when we need to. I think the AIRPACK is the part most people worry about and the least understood. But thank God for steelsoldier and you guys that know and don't mind...

How do you know if your airpack is working correctly? Should I be able to lock all tires on hard stand? My truck stops real good but I can't lock the tires on pavement and leave black marks. Thanks

Yellow Boot This is Harold the guy with one yellow boot ha. I broke my leg at the ankle back in October and I had a cast on my right leg. I came up with that idea so I could get out side and do a little work without getting my cast dirty. It was a little hard driving that deuce with that boot...

Thanks everyone. I will try to visit these places as soon as i can. I managed to break my right leg working on my Deuce removing a tire from the truck and it is slow to heal. Happy New Year to all.

Thanks very much Colelkhunter. Happy New Year.

Great photo and a big help for me to see them. I did some towing with the wrecker back in 1960 when i was in Germany but i have forgot most of it. A lot of water under the bridge since then. But the photoes bring back a lot for me. Fort Knox had two 5 tons wreckers for sale last week and they...

Thanks again 319. I look forward to seeing the photos. Harold.

Thanks 319. Does the whiffle tree come with the 5 ton wrecker? I have a lot to learn about towing with the 5 ton wrecker. Can you use the whiffle tree to lift the duece off the ground if you connect the tow bar to the top of the bumper? I don,t guess I have ever seen a WHIFFLE tree. Thanks...

What is the correct way to tow a M35A2 with a 5 ton wrecker (M816) I think. Do you lift the front end of the M35A2 off the ground with the wrecker and connect the tow bar to the top of the front bumper of the M35A2? I have seen other options but would like to hear from others that have towed...

Airfilter I checked my air filter Doghead and it was the one on my truck when I picked it up at GL and it looked ok from the outside but for some reason the filter was old I guess and it was completely stoped up very little air flow. I installed a new air filter and my truck ran a lot better...

Lucas Oil I use Lucas oil stabalizer in my M35A2 engine at a 50% rate and it works great. No dry starts anymore. I also use it in the transfer case at a 100 % and in the transmission at 50 % and each axle at the 100% rate. I have no leaks and the engine runs great and pulls most grades in fifth...

Does anybody know of a salvage yard for military trucks in Georgia?
