Amber or yellow headlights are, and always were, illegal in all european countries, except france, where they used to be mandatory. In order to pass technical inspections, yellow headlights must be removed, and white ones installed. (You may get away with yellow headlights if they were original...

My M35A1 has serial # M-56515. It's a 1962 Studebaker-Packard. The serial number is on the right hand side frame rail on these trucks, not on the left.

you need a copy of technical manual TM 9-2330-238-14&P. other than where to get parts, it will tell you everything you need to know. 19207 is the FSCM federal code of manufacturer.

2mas-, i can assure you that all multifuel exhaust manifolds do have the same bolt pattern, but the turbo-to-exhaust pipe connections are different on LDS 427-2 and LDT 465, so you will need a new exhaust pipe, in this case the so called clean air exhaust stack. you will also need a different...

Schwitzer 4D454C, like the data plate says. Used on late model LDS 427-2 engines. See TM 9-2990-201-45 for more info

What you have is an interesting mix of parts from different trucks. In 1968 all M35A2 came from the factory with non-turbo LD 465-1 engines and vertical stack. Your engine LDS 465-1 is from a 5ton truck and was originally turbocharged. The horizontal exhaust system with muffler was used on older...

I looked at the M715 zone link posted by Gerrykan: C=cross country, H=highway, E=emergency.....WOW!

The first batch of LDS 465-1 engines had a 20.5:1 CR. Pistons had a slightly larger spherical combustion chamber.

Yes, it is definitely from an LDS. Remember there are 4 different LDS engines. LDS 427-2 does not have the cooling passage and has a smaller diameter. Used in M44A1 deuces (M35A1). LDS 465-2 has 5 rings. Used only in Ford built 8x8 trucks. Rare! LDS 465-1 and LDS 465-1A have 4 rings. So it is...

Your front differential may be bad. I happened to me in 1990. Suddenly, while driving, the truck started feeling stiff, and when i made a sharp turn, the steering wheel started rocking left and right, and i could not make the turn. I stopped, jacked up one wheel and tried to turn it. The wheel...

Pictures taken in Graf march 2012 Truck was a multifueler with old style front crossmember. The stripped engine block was still in the truck. Different style dogbones are visible in the pictures. Next time i am in graf, i will take measurements if i get a chance.

Hi Emmett, The rear mounted ladder could be included in one lenght measurement, and only the ladder brackets in the other. I don´t have a shop van truck, so i can´t check. The difference in ground clearance could be due to different dogbones, early trucks had thinner ones that were round section...

Emmett, was assuming you knew what the M44 series is, and that all "reo" design deuces are part of it. I also gave you TM number and year, chapter, page, paragraph sub paragraph, and i copied the info letter by letter from the TM, to let you decide what your truck is, based on it. based on your...

According to all manuals, the difference between M109A2 and A3 is the engine used (427 vs.465). Many other changes took place only after the start of the A3 series, so you will find many of the features of the M109A2 on early A3´s, like horizontal exhaust (but with different pipes and with the...
