I vote tear it apart and learn about all the internals as you go. then keep what you want, sell what you want, and scrap anything damaged.

oh man I agree 100%. My truck is an A2 with the stack. After riding in a truck with the rear dump I wish mine was rear dump instead.

If you were given a blank check to either purchase or, if the truck no longer exists, build a replica of any variant of the M44 series of trucks, which variant would you pick? Post pics of your choice. At first I thought a Vietnam era gun-truck was tempting, but in the end I would pick an...

nice truck! I LOVE how the rear/side dump exhaust looks when under load.

are you going to post a video of it running? I LOVE that LDS sound

This morning I was looking for cool M35 videos on youtube...because work is dead. I found this cool video of a 465LDT running with only one head installed. I have seen other videos of other engines doing this...but this is the first time seeing one of our engines. It's pretty wild to see the...

green trucks are faster, too...because science!

I burned a holiday on my "friday" (weds) and spent the day enjoying a truck work day. I replaced all the fuel filters (I'm still recovering from an algae bloom in my fuel tank), flushed/bled the brake system, and gave it a quick rinse to clean off all the west texas dirt. Everything went...

Yesterday I popped the new battery into the my truck so I could circulate the anti-alage I put in the fuel tank a few weeks back. During the install process I pinched a battery cable....ugh. I did a temporary repair so I could crank the truck (without starting a fire) & circulate the anti-algae...

I bought a new battery monday...$200 from my OReillys in Lubbock, TX. I thought about going with group 31s but in the end I really wanted to keep it as original as I can...so I saved some extra pennies and ordered a new 6tl. the counter guy was telling me about another local deuce owner who is...

my days off have been approved so if all goes well I am planning on being there. I'm going to bring my 4x4 truck instead of my MV. The wife is preggo and can't handle riding in the M35A2 from Lubbock to central texas and back again.

awesome! thanks!

Did you have to do a lot of custom fab work to secure them in the battery box? I don't really want to have to do a lot of fab work just to make truck batteries fit the M35A2 battery box. I don't have a band saw, welder, or any other tools commonly used for specialty fabrication work. I usually...

I just submitted my days off request at work. I'm planning on being there this year!

Today I did a little troubleshooting with my trucks issues. I checked both batteries with a multimeter and they showed good voltage...while at rest with no load. As soon as I introduced and kind of load, the voltage tanked....so one or both batteries is dead. I pulled both batteries and ran to...

Today I did some fuel tank cleaning, added 10 gallons of fresh diesel mixed with algecide (power service brand biokleen and diesel clean). I also added it to the 55gal drum of old fuel. I clicked on the accesory switch to move the fuel through the system for a bit. I was going to run the motor...

You aren't a REAL MV owner unless you run your M35A2 on 109 octane racing fuel! hahaha actually I FINALLY started my project to clean out my nasty algae growth diesel fuel. I used my safety siphon to drain the tank. I have the truck tank drained into the 55gal drum. Now I have to clean...

Those tires must have GREAT traction! (or was the picture taken in Australia?)
