    Newbie questions regarding brake work

    Yes, I'm in the process of purchasing that very deuce. I hope it will be in my driveway within the week. I spent some time there today (with h the current owners permission) and managed to get the lights working and the emergency brake functioning. I'm trying to not get ahead of myself and...

    Newbie questions regarding brake work

    I didn't pull the trigger on the deuce, I feel like I'm probably missing out on a pretty good deal but I really want to gain more knowledge before I take the plunge. I'm very grateful for everybody's advice on here and will continue to watch and learn and hopefully find the right one for me at...

    Newbie questions regarding brake work

    Thank you. I can afford the maintenance in it if I am able to do the work myself but much less so if I have to pay to have it all done. I stopped at a local Diesel repair shop and they gave me a worse case scenario estimate of more than 2k for a full brake job. The that would be difficult to...

    That looks sweet. I'm pretty sure my whole family will help with the cosmetics. I'm concerned I'll never get it to pass inspection but I'm a worrier lol

    I'm concerned about it too but it seems to possibly be coming from the boot which I assume is/was filled with grease. The stuff leaking is very thick and I can see a tear in both front boots. The brakes are my biggest concern as I currently don't have the means of getting something this big off...

    Not even sure what the reservoir box even is. The one image is a problem area I noticed behind several wheels

    Thanks all. I'm sure I'll drive everyone nuts with questions if I pull the trigger on it. The place that owns it is supposed to get the battery charged so I can hear and see it run on Monday. I can post pics if anyone has interest in it.

    Your advise is sound and I'm certain I'm getting in over my head on the m35 but it's something i've wanted for quite some time. I am what I would consider a very good Shadetree mechanic and have done nearly all of my work on my cars (and 5 jeeps) over the last 20 years but the deuce is a...

    Hi everyone my name is Dave Miller and I'm a newbie to this site and considering purchasing my first military vehicle. I'm trying to talk myself out of buying and M35A2 lol. No luck so far as I think I've caught the bug. Any advice anyone can give on the basket case I'll probably end up...
