I've got one of these transmissions that needs a rebuild too, so I am in the same boat as you. Would be neat to find someone in the Tulsa/OKC area that can rebuild them for a reasonable price. I'd like to do it myself but really don't know what all is needed yet either.

Check out our part list up in the sticky section. We have the seals and gasket numbers listed. The only seal you might need to order is the outer hub seals. We have not been able to find the civilian equivalent yet. They can be found on eBay or from Memphis....maybe other places too but I know...

It probably wouldn't be too noticeable on the roof. I like the idea of the solar powered battery tenders best, but down here, we commonly get hail in the early spring/summer and I figured it would destroy the solar panel. Solargizer is the one I looked at and some of the guys on here use them...

Plowboy...those handles came in on Wednesday. Thank you so much for sending them!! I was able to get the truck out for a short drive yesterday and so far the brake system is still working great. I'm still making sure those new front wheel cylinders don't decided to leak again before I hook up...

I got my truck out for a drive yesterday too, but it was about 70 degrees out. That is sure some pretty country you have up there. Section 8....I went out last weekend to fire up my truck and the batteries were dead. I think I am going to get one of these to help with that.

Haha! It is the movie trailer to H3ll is for Heroes if you want to search for a version on youtube they will let you watch. A WW2 movie, but at that point in the trailer, there is a big line of shiny, new looking M135's driving down the road. I have never seen that many M135's in one...

Yes, there are 2 wheel cylinders on each wheel and 2 bleed valves on the airpak. 14 bleed valves total. The brakes are all supposed to be the same.

I would be in for it if I were closer. That would be quite a trip in the M135.

I use 15W40 for the engine and Hy-Tran for the transmission. I like the idea of one oil for both and may try that on one of the other trucks.

Check out the convoy of trucks at 0:44. Not quite WW2 era, but still beautiful. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wsfiB-X6J7c

Could someone tell me what these bumper markings mean? They are off of a GMC M135. ATC AD (passenger side) and HQ68 (driver side)

Yes...please post up pictures of the truck in actual military service. That is incredible!!

That engine sure sounds good.

I am really looking forward to seeing if that matches up better than what I have been able to come up with. I need it in semi-gloss for my M135. Here are my attempts at matching 24087 in post #14 and #18. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?124761-Is-this-23070/page2

Is this a picture of the 24087 that HD mixed up? It looks much more green than what they did for me. Could you post up a picture of the paint code they put on top of the can so I can get a sample to try? I like the color of your Jeep!

Is this your truck? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kwemhHcS__Y If so, you have been holding out on us by not posting this. :-D

Welcome to the group. A little TLC and that truck will look great! If you decide you want a military bed, I think the M35A2 bed is nearly identical to the M211 one. Show us the engine and inside of the cab when you get a chance.

Thank you. I had to use a combination of 2 G749 airpaks and 1 M809 airpak to make this one. I do have a few good parts left over, so if you are looking for something after you tear into yours, let me know.

I finished my airpak rebuild and got it, all new front brake hoses and the new master cylinder installed today. Bled everything and took the truck for a short run down the street. What a huge improvement in braking!!! I only have the front brakes hooked up at the moment to sort out that wheel...

Wow! Where did you find that?! Do you mind saying what you paid for it? I just finished my airpak rebuild this evening using the 5 ton rebuild kit and piston conversion. I sure hope it works.
