    Heater motor

    The vendor I ordered the motor from is sending me a new motor right away and a shipping label for the previous one. I don’t know if we’re supposed to say who we’re getting parts from but their initials are BM ‘s and I am extremely impressed with their customer service. Good service is rare...

    Heater motor

    Thank you..that is a lot cheaper. Should have asked you first. Hopefully I can get a refund on the first one.

    Heater motor

    The blower is one from a military parts source and when I test the switch low side is 12volt and high side is reading 24 volt. All connections seem ok.

    Heater motor

    My heater motor wasn’t working so I ordered a new one. After getting it all hooked up with the ground wire connected to a bolt on the heater box I started the truck to test it. It came on—smoke came out of the new motor followed by a large spark and now nothing. My first instinct says...

    Questions after crawling under it.

    I might be wrong but I believe that wire is for your horn.

    Crazy...I guess with the shape of the tire could pool up that much water if the bead isn’t seated. We don’t get any rain here in Las Cruces so I really wouldn’t know. Down here we get crazy and dance in the streets when it rains because we haven’t seen any for several months 😁

    Interesting Find

    The tires were bought and put on by the previous owner but he said they were already mounted when he bought them. He just thought they had run flats which the right front did. This one had a beadlock and about 20-30 gallons of water in it. I can’t imagine that that much water could be in a...

    Interesting Find

    After several months of working on my truck and patiently waiting for the DMV appointment so I could register my truck so it is road legal I finally took her out on the interstate. I had a nasty bouncing in the front which I figured was from having a run flat on one side and a beadlock on the...

    Seeking Advice on Replacing HH O-Rings in the Truck

    He’s talking about the bolt in the center of the head between all of the injection lines. I’d double check the fuel shut off o-ring and possibly replace that again. If it’s nice and tight there shouldn’t be any fuel leaking from there.

    my new m35a2

    Contrar....The first thing to do is grab you a lawn chair and a few cold ones and sit there and stare at it till it’s too dark to see. Smiling every minute. The next thing to do is invite everyone over to look at it and you with big smile and watch them shake their heads and say what the****...

    Trouble installing fuel control lever

    You should be able to move it up a bit with a small flat head screwdriver.

    Will these rims fit?

    Thank you both. I will probably get them and save the rims for a future deuce project.

    Will these rims fit?

    Does anyone know what these rims are off of and if they will fit on the front of my M923? I’m getting the tires and rims for a good price and will take them if they will fit.

    Seeking Advice on Replacing HH O-Rings in the Truck

    I’m not sure if it’s the best idea or not but on mine I ended up putting orings in each injection line connection to fix the same problem your having. My hydraulic head was old and pitted and that’s the only way I could keep it from leaking.

    Seeking Advice on Replacing HH O-Rings in the Truck

    Correct but 5th will be better. Even turning in 5th is not real easy. I use a large box end wrench shoved between the u joint and yolk.
