As more and more regulartory agencies become interested in our vehicles (along with it being simply the right thing to do) - I'd urge everyone to be honest on their SF-97s and titles. One of these days - someone is gonna need to register these vehicles, and with all the bogus SF-97s and...

If you provide the numbers stamped on the data plate, odds are we can provide the numbers that would have been painted on the hood. Best wishes, David Doyle

If you will provide the manufacturer's serial number, there is about a 60% chance I can give you the correct registration number. Best wishes, David Doyle

That is a 1969 Kaiser-Jeep M35A2. Regards, David Doyle

You are correct, that is an ARVN truck. Info I gave was quoting the Signal Corps caption, which is obviously not complete. Good catch. DD

Hey guys - this is what I posted earlier on some of these subjects: The family of vehicles including the M35, M35A1 and M35A2 (and a host of others) are the vehicles from Standard Nomenclature List number G-742. The first G-742 truck was delivered in 1949, it was a M34 (gas, single 11.00-20...

The parts book is ORD 9 SNL G749.....several hundred pages. A 34P WISHES it was as good as an ORD9 HTH, David Doyle

Dozer and nhdiesel - send me a message with your sn from the frame, and I can more than likely tell you the mfr. Dozer - was the ID by GL on the front page of the listing, or on the specific item listing? I've noticed sometimes the descriptions are different, and the specific item listing...

All this information is contained in the pdf I posted on page 4 of this thread - too much to retype here. Best wishes, David Doyle

Regarding outside display areas - I believe in theory the vehicle pre-registration has closed. However, you can call HQ M-F 8-4:30 at 800-365-5798 and get more info (I'll try to reach someone today on this, but no promises I'll succeed). In the meantime, here is some info: Naturally...

Tom Burton, will be at the MVPA convention in Topeka - so any number of folks could speak to him (I have in the past), since he is President of the company, I'd say that is about as far up the food chain as you can get. Best wishes, David Doyle

Air-shift transfer, or sprag type?

2011 is in Dayton, Ohio, and 2012 will be in Huntsville, Alabama. DD

In only 21 days the Kansas Expocentre in Topeka will be filling with almost 150 operational military vehicles - tanks, halftracks, Jeeps, HMMWVs - AND even more armor models! If you are within a few hundred miles, it will be well-worth driving, flying, swimming, walking, hitch-hiking or...

The M123A1C that I own is powered by a Cummins V8-300 (as was every M123A1C the day it left the factory). The V8-300 superceded the LeRoi TH-844 gasoline engine in the G-792 (10-ton) trucks. While the V8-300 engine looks very much like a V903, they are not the same. In fact, darn few of the...

Ya' know, what baffles me about this is that this thread began with an implied question "what deuce doesn't have these, I'll never know" - well, maybe the poster doesn't know - but I do, and several other people do, and this information has been published on this forum in the past, as well as in...

Very cool!

I'd think that the TMs oughta be downloadable from LOGSA. That being said, I am not familiar AT ALL with this particular model, but in general, I know way more about high pressure hot water washers than I do about army trucks - so feel free to ask questions. Best wishes, David Doyle

As Kenny pointed out, beginning in 1961 the M35A1 was powered by the LDS-427. However, it is worth pointing out that while the cargo trucks got the Multifuel then, that was not the case for all the truck models - there were concerns about axle loadings. That being said, I have no problem...

While heavy truck transmissions (such as the Fuller found in many over the road tractors) are designed to be shifted without benefit of the clutch, the M35 (entire G-742 family) is NOT a heavy truck. It is, by definition, a light-medium truck. Accordingly, it has light, medium components. The...
