    86 M35a2 with a '66 engine? Is this possible?

    Only the motorpool guys know for sure...it's anybody's guess. We could give you some, but that's all they'd be. Could be that the truck is a '66 overhauled in '86 but...???

    I imploded my winch.

    I don't know how you could speculate that the ring gear is intact without seeing it. It is made of a softer metal than the worm gear, I would guess it would have deformed badly BUT without pics that is only a guess. I wouldn't be re-using that worm gear either, I don't think.

    I imploded my winch.

    I'm just here for the pics. Having rebuilt 2 winches, I know what you're in for.

    Starting My Bobber Project!!

    What did you use to paint the springs? I've always wondered if it would be worth it to take them apart or just paint them in place. Seems like no matter which, the paint would crack off from all the flexing. It's looking great!

    Deuce winch kit price??

    Winch PTO PTO shift lever assembly drive shaft bumper extensions and frame rails to set the bumper further out and mount the winch plus a bunch of bolts, the most expensive being the shouldered bolts that actually mount the winch to the frame (12 of them)

    Bumper markings m35a2

    I think I found the page you are referring to: http://olive-drab.com/od_mvg_markings.php I'm still trying to figure out what my truck's original markings would have been (1971) for the (Kentucky nat'l guard) unit it was in: 103RD CS BN CO B MAINT

    Rear Mounted Intake??? Why?

    That is one seriously messed-up website.

    Door reassembly

    I'm replacing everything, took both doors down to shells. Actually both doors are off the winch truck I parted out a year and a half ago.

    MY Airpack Rebuild with Photos!

    http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?3229-Deuce-Power-Bleeder-R4x4-Style If money is not a problem (and it sounds like maybe it isn't) you can just buy a new airpack. http://www.memphisequipment.com/PartsDetail.aspx?id=10000259 (Memphis is just one parts dealer, I'm sure others have them)

    Door reassembly

    Again re the window seals: do they go in flange-up like this or flange down? Again they are not even mentioned in the TM. NEVERMIND--found the answer in a different TM TM 9-2320-361-20 11-5. CAB DOOR Glass AND WEATHERSEAL REPLACEMENT Flange goes UP as pictured.

    Door reassembly

    I went ahead and ordered the 100 pack of brass rivets, they are perfect. I will share them around after I install mine.

    Door reassembly

    I've read the procedure in the TM 3 times now (9-2320-209-34-2-2) and nowhere does it mention the window seal that fits inside the top of the door, with the little clips that pop into the holes in the door. Does this seal go in BEFORE or AFTER the window glass is installed? Also, anyone have a...

    Removing Door Gun Ring Mount

    Looking at jason's 2nd pic above, does the gun ring mount (2 pieces) both go BEHIND that little flange of the dash board sticking out, or does one go in front of it and one behind it, sandwiching it? I think they both go behind it but didn't take pics of this particular thing when I took it...

    ATF red dye?

    I've never bought off-road fuel but the deuce I parted out, that I got from Ft. Knox, had red diesel in it. That was over a year and a half ago and I still have a jug of it (I work on my deuce more than drive it).

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    I thought the PTO was actually easier than the winch. By the way, you can insert the shaft after everything else is on but you have to slide it apart to do so.

    MY Airpack Rebuild with Photos!

    Ha ha the coop cleaning was easy, predictable, and no surprises! I got the result I expected from the effort put in. Wish I could say the same for the deuce! RE bleeding I would honestly say try it again. The first time I bled my brakes I ended up with a soft pedal. It sat for a few days and...

    MY Airpack Rebuild with Photos!

    Update: I got all the correct fittings at AirHydro, and my airpack is reinstalled. BUT when I'm trying to bleed the system, the Master Cylinder is leaking at the cap. I took the copper washer out and sanded it a little but no dice, it is still leaking when I pressurize the system. So I need to...
