    M35A2 Oregon Title and Reg

    If you can try to register it as a antique . This is a great way to have the Deuce at a good insurance price but, it does have limitations and at times it can be a pain in the rear . If you plan on driving it every day then stay with standard insurance,s .....

    Newbie Looking for First Deuce - Opinions Wanted

    There is a simple solution , have the current owner of the truck try to title it if he can the you can reimburse him the money if you wish . For me, and it sounds like a few others is the fact that you may be buying a truck that will hurt not help your mission. If you do a search of the topic...

    M923 MPG and Differential Oil Seal Leak

    These things are known to go through fuel at an alarming rate. Even the Deuces run at about 10 mpg at best. Empty are loaded doesn't seem to make any difference to mine. I know when it comes time to fuel it , just shut up and pay the nice pump :) That's why I have my motorcycle to balance out...

    goldneagle's M923 recovery and modification thread

    I have to say I am jealous, I haven't had more than two or three hours since I brought the truck home. And it was to fix the soft top yep you have a number three to add to the crappy stitching . The guy who delivered the truck just ripped it off and destroyed the front rubber clip. So I had to...

    Oh Dear Lord! I just bought a 5 ton from Ft Rucker in AL. Now what?

    I can say with all honesty that if you add it up with everything going in your favor, you could drive it home and make one heck of a memory . On the other hand it most likely will be a disaster . The reason I say this is that it looks to be a nice truck but, I noticed the head lights were...

    Troop seats or hardware for a 923

    I am rebuilding my 923 and it doesn't have any troop seats . I am in Florence, SC And a friend and fellow SS member has one troop seat from a Deuce. The wood is bad but, it has the hardware . If anyone has a set of seats or hardware close to me I am interested in them. The hardware should be the...

    M923 Tire Question

    Like emr I have the 1400s on mine and love the look but in no way would I use them under that kind of weight . At speeds higher than 45 0r 50 the out of balance tires will give you a wild ride with no load . Would only hate to try it with a full load that moves side to side . I would stay with...

    1400-20 rims and tires

    I don't mean to steel this thread but I have the 1400-20s also but do these tires have tube in them because if not why not use a fixaflat product for a slow leak. I know many off road people use slime in the tubeless tires even before there is a problem with a flat in the middle of nowhere . I...

    Cargo Cover or Soft Top Repair/ Fix

    I used a patch and gorilla glue and put a brick on it over night . I was impressed with the bond even when you flexed it . I also used the as seen on TV rubber spray two days ago for some worn spots that leaked when it rained hard. They were on the soft top where it had been folded and stored...

    goldneagle's M923 recovery and modification thread

    You have really done work to be proud of . If I may ask why did you go to the trouble and expense of 4 batteries instead of just two. I down sized mine to just two and so far haven't had any problems. Don't get me wrong I still have all the clamps and cables to reverse it if I do have problems...
