    1952 M135 W/Winch

    I ended up with a fiberglass troop seat set, and a metal bow set . The seats and headboard are out of a M35 and the bows out of a 5 ton. Some of the purists may hate me, but I want to use these so I don't have to worry about wood deteriorating. Three of the stakes on each side and the seat legs...

    G749 preservation

    Holes All of mine looked that way too. I put some gasket maker around that area but not enough to get into the wheel bearings. Not sure it if will help, but that is what I did.

    I just finished doing all the brakes on my M135 yesterday. None of my bearings were dry like that, but they were sure soaked in gear oil. Looks to me like all your grease is on the oil shield. I also did not have any of those seal springs come out or have to pull hard to get the hubs off. I did...

    1952 M135 W/Winch

    My brakes are finally done and working great!!!! This thing stops on a dime! I checked all of my differentials and I am sure I had them too full. I pumped them down to where the oil is about 1 inch below the bottom edge of the fill hole. Hopefully this will solve my gear oil leaks.

    What color did you use on your bridge plate? Everything is looking real good!

    1952 M135 W/Winch

    That is what I was looking for. Thanks!!! This leaking stuff is becoming a challenge. Fix one thing and then the next starts leaking. I'm not ready to rebuild the knuckles yet so I will see what happens. The passenger side is just fine. It is very possible I overfilled the differential last...

    My rear brakes are done and ready to go. Since I had to replace all of the wheel cylinders back there, I decided to change out the front with new ones as well so everything is the same. My front brakes were done back in November complete with new hub seals, wheel bearings cleaned, packed etc...

    Deuce Markings

    CARNAC...I wanted to ask again if you may know what some more numbers mean. This is off of one of my M135's that I am going to restore. The pictures may not show the numbers very clear but this is what it says. Hood - 41143??? Driver Side Front Bumper- HQ-47 Passenger Side Front Bumper 2-...

    1952 M135 W/Winch

    I have been out of town and was able to stop by and look at the first M135 I owned. I still own it, but have not shipped it out where I currently live yet. I have owned it for about 10 years now, but have never taken much time for it or even looked through it. Hopefully that will change later...

    I ordered Walker carburetor kit #159040 that is in our parts list just to have one on hand. Here is what they look like. Seems good to me.

    Cab ID

    I wish I knew more info on it. I do want a CCKW at some point, but I would like to have something a lot more complete than this one. A fully restored one instead of a project would be a nice change up.

    1952 M135 W/Winch

    Sorry it took a while to get back to you. I have been down with the flu. Anyway... the answer is yes to the spring. The wheel I took a picture of that had the most grease on it had inner seal number 32527. This is a replacement for 6584S which is what was original for the truck. Here is a...
