Still wrangling with the stair/door design. Trying to come up with something that can be opened/deployed from both inside and out.
I don't know if this was always available, but the fold down/up stairs shown in post #19, while too short, now I've found you can buy the hinge for those stairs...
I'm installing a new cab soft top on an M35A2 - steel bows and all. I have parts that came from different sources. Everything is a bit bent and tweaked, as is the truck cab itself, so I need to get everything lined up properly.
Questions:
- My assumption is that the uprights at the rear of the...
Somehow lost one door hinge bolt and need two window regulator keepers (kind of a fancy e-clip) as one was missing and another rusted.
Also want to redo the canvas on the seats. Are surplus seat covers available?
TIA.
Have you inquired with Stephan Wood Products? https://www.stephanwoodproducts.com/
I have an older price list from them that lists all part numbers that come back for that bed in the -34P-1...

Hey Phil, thanks for the reply. The project in question involves getting some dropside bedsides and cutting off my old bedsides. So it looks like it's just steel for hinges that I would need.
Drop side bed has got to be one of the most useful body there is. To fabricate one is going to take a lot of detail welding to get it so that it functions correctly. Getting the hinges to work smoothly is probably going to be the hardest part. Obviously when you are welding it up it needs to...
Hello,
I have 2 new windshields and 2 old hinges. The old windshields hung fine, but the new ones hang too low, they won't close. Tried everything I can think of. Do I need new hinges? The old hinges slide on fine, The old windshields had a more rounded design that makes up the hinge. Anybody...
Absolutely! Your version even has a "lockout tagout" tab on it... I just have to make sure to avoid the soft metal where the seals live. That is definitely the way to go!
I have made those in the past but they weren't nearly as nice. Mine were hack jobs with a big pipe and a torch. That...

Take your time

It is where I found all about the windows, I stll have parts
Problem is many bottom parts...
I should clarify a bit. The filter box is taller and has a slight taper to it. I didn't take into account this difference when I cut my panel so it looks a little funny. I had to "hammer" my hood to get clearance. You can see this where the panel meets the filter unit.
How can that be - if your truck is a M35A2?:???:
AFAIK only the gassers and the A3's have tapered side panels. Multifuel trucks all came with straight/square panels (= 9" tall, measured from center of hinge pin to top edge, front and rear).
Picked up a 68 m35a2 about 4 days ago. Not really sure the route I want to go with it as it’s my first deuce I’ve ever been in much less owned. Needs brake work but runs and drives. Brake cylinders are leaking but have some on the way. Drivers side window is cracked but both sides roll up and...
I need to change out my drivers door. any tips on best way to do this? Do I remove the hinge pin-bolt, or do I remove the hinge from the door post? I have no help and this door is heavy so I need a plan.
I know on the M35A2 there is a reinforcement plate under the cowl just like the one under the hood.
I took mine out, reshaped the cowl, (because it was dented in around the hinge's), then I made and intalled larger/ thicker reinforcement plates, installed with a urethane structual adhesive...
Happy New Year all. In wanting to add a dump conversion to my M925A2, I was ready to pull the trigger on one of the C&C scissor kits, but I have just seen too many complaints of slow speed and disappointment in lift capability. Also, WildChild467 pointed out to me that the scissor mechanism...
looking for a suppier for the rivit or brass fastener on the top of the door track on the hinge side of a m35a2 does anybody know where i can get them .they are brass and are almost like a brake rivit thanks
I just bought a 1967 Kaiser M35A2. It has 4 brackets in the front corners of the bed. Looks like they are designed to hold a round pipe in the 3" diameter range. They have a hinge design that would allow for reasonably quick removal of said "pipes". They are on the front wall of the bed (inside...
