I made a stop at our local 'Les Shwab tire center' today to inquire about replacing my deuce's 9.00" x 20" stock military treads with something more aggressive. The salesman suggested that I would need to replace the rims first off, with 22.5" rims. That would be tough also, with the 6 lug...

Hi guys, Is it ever normal to see a red glow inside the exhaust on the deuce? A while back I had my turbo go out, which was blowing oil into the hot exhaust, and apparently it was burning inside the pipe.. Sparks and a nice bright glow would emit every time I got on it at all.. I had to limp it...

Hi all, I have a Johnson Furnace Co. M105A2 trailer with air/hydraulic brakes that I got with my deuce. The brakes seem to work at present, but I wanted to check the hydraulic fluid level. I was surprised to not find any reservoir or fill plugs on the master cylinder. Does anyone know how to...

Yeah, I did not expect it to go for that much under the circumstances, but $200 off isn't bad if you planned to buy one anyway.. Here is a link in case someone doesn't know about this site: http://www.m35products.com/Air-O-Matic.htm I am not aware of anyone selling it for less, but who knows...

It ended up being a sleeve.. I was told that this could be replaced in the truck, without taking the engine all the way apart.. Got the parts coming from Clark Truck Parts.. I'm attempting the repair myself.. If anyone has done this and can throw any advice my way, I'd appreciate it.. Thanks..

Yeah, the first thing I did was pull the turbo off, and there was still oil coming from the exhaust manifold.. I finally managed to pull the manifold off in preperation for removing the front head... (They sure didn't design it to be easy either) It looks like the oil is coming from the 2nd and...

Hi, I just purchased a 1970 AM General M35A2-C from a private party.. It seemed to run great when I test drove it, and about 5 miles into the trip home, it quit on me.. I was blocking the road, so I tried to restart it, which it did just fine, and I managed to pull it off onto the shoulder.. The...
