it steers about as well as it did with stock tires. However it handles on the road much better. Has more power off the start and seems to runout better. Donuts and burnouts are very doable:-D. I need to add a little weight to the back of mine as the wheel hop is rough with no weight on the...

I just recently purchased a m-35 with winch from a dealer in tennessee, went and looked at the selection on wednesday and drove it home on friday. I think I got a great deal, maybe not to everyone, but to me it was good. M-35 (tooele rebuild) with 100 hrs, winch, 11 spanking new titan hawks...

I built it for more offroad use than onroad. However my local ORV area just went out of business, so we are left with driving 2 hours to go wheeling. Test drove it today!!!WOOOHOOO, we took if for a little victory lap after bleeding the brakes and capping off the air lines. All I lack at...

I wouldn't think the stock bumper would be strong enough. Take a look at some of the fourwheel offroad sites and they have tons of ideas for externally mounting the tire. One comes to mind that could be built fairly inexpensively if you can weld and have a way to cut and weld steel. check...

DIDN'T make much headway today. Had a few problems rear their ugly head, namely a broken valve stem on one of the wheels and the lack of silicone sealant. Progress was made, tomorrow should yield a test drive at least. Mounting 53's is not a chore to be taken lightly, but the proper...

my goal for moving the exhaust was to get a little more clearance (clarence) for the front 53" tires and to decrease the noise level in the cab a little. My thinking was to move them to the rear with dual mufflers. I would like to make it so that I could speak and not scream at the person...

anyone relocate their exhaust on an m-35 or similar? I am thinking of relocating it to the rear of the cab and maybe to duals. If anyone has any pics also i would love to see them. Snakeater

BSM07 is that carc that you painted them both is? I like the monochromatic look for the deuce. Where do you get your paint from. I am about to paint my bobbed deuce and am looking for options on paint as well. thanks Snakeater

got one of the 53's mounted on the deuce yesterday. Man that is one huge freakin' tire. Looks GREAT!!! That is what I call a man's vehicle. didn't make much progress with the rest of the truck. Lug nuts had to be heated with a torch to remove them, what a pain in the rear. Tomorrow should...

got the 53's home safe and sound. Also picked up a set of 46" michelins and a set of 5 ton beadlocks to recenter for it. Projects are coming together here lately and I like it. I am looking for 2 more 5 ton beadlocks if anyone has a couple to spare. I am going to run one as a spare on the...

should finish up odds and ends monday as well as mount tires and wheels. Tuesday it's off to the exhaust shop for some duals I think. Wednesday will be mounting the bed and air ride seats. Everythig is coming along faster than I had planned, but that is fine too. Next my m715 is getting...

Firefighter...........bring that deuce over to Jackson, tn. and we will bob the snot out of it. LOL, just finishing one of my own and the shop is never gonna be the same. If you need parts for the bob, gimme a shout. I have a guys number that i can give you that is pretty close to you that...

rottiedog, That's one thing that I had already considered. if the tire hits the exhaust up fron then I plan to relocate it. I wanted to move it behind the cab anyway. Maybe a set of 8" slash cut stacks with the flappers on them.......Hmmmm. Snakeater

we will see this weekend. Most of the bobbing was finished today. Air ride seats next and 53's with double beadlocks. Nexr upgrade power steering.....Snakeater

I am going to try to use the air ride seats from a Kenworth. They are small base. I measured a set today and unless my tape measure is a dirty liar, they will work just fine. Grey cloth isn't very militaristic, but it is a far sight more comfortable that the seats in my m-35 right now. I...

Point of fact, i just got home from Chut1st's fine establishment. reminded me of the cat humping the skunk, he said " I havn't had all I wanted, but I have had all I can stand"........ Work continues tomorrow on the deuce bag bobber, run into a herdle as dave mentioned. I will be jumping it...

would that be considered a double wide (105) trailer. I like the concept. Snakeater

I will probably be cutting down the stock bed, and not using a 105 bed. My truck will retain the stock front tandem location. I am not lengthening the driveshaft. If I have an issue with clearance for the fuel tank I will move it into the bed or get crafty and cut down the battery box and...

good deal......I made alot of headway today. Got the bed off, wiring removed, brake lines removed and the tandems removed. Can't work on it tomorrow, but wednesday I should be able to get the rear spring on and the rear axle back in place and plumbed. That is my goal anyway. This is going...

good to know, I will go ahead and get this cooking. No problem with a tandem, my truck doesn't have them any more. Thanks guys for the information. Snakeater
