No offence, but if I take a M35A2, chop it, put earth mover tires on it, and drop a 454 in - then its now a kit car built by me - not something built by Reo, Kaiser or AM General - and it should be tagged and titled as a kit car. If the titling and licensing laws are supposed to be concerned...

Yep, the pump is the same, fuel delivery and timing are different, but your TM will tell you how to set the pump for your application. Regards, David Doyle

Mark, There is another way - I'll PM you. DD

The operator's manual gives this info - in the form of the performance specs of a M34 as well as illustrations of the data plates. HTH, David Doyle

The rim used on the M135/M34 has a different offset than those on the M35/M211. Yes, an 11.00-20 will fit on the M35 rim. HTH, David Doyle

Ya'll know that Smyrna is about 225 miles from Memphis, TN - my home - and home of Memphis Equipment Co. I dunno what they are bidding on - if anything - but since these are in their back yard (low cost to inspect, low cost to transport), it would stand to reason that they'd be interested...

Lots of military Jeeps have been hauled in lots of deuces without modification. Dunno if the increased tire size of yours would cause any width issues - the specs of the deuces stock bed are given in the operators manual, which is a free download on this site. If you think you are gonna go buy...

To add to what Kenny said earlier - in addition to the info on the frame rail, post pix of the inside of the cab doors, and the underside of the hood - these should yield the army registration number. Those and the VIN (which RARELY but occassionally is on the right front frame rail - but on a...

I've not bought from Boyce - but I've bought from private parties, DRMO, GL, GSA, and Memphis Equipment (Boyce's Competitor). In my view, it boils down to the following factors: Do you have the money to spend? How much free time do you have? Do you think pulling wrenches is fun? If so, do you...

I don't recall the conversation I had with Bruce - and I am unusually pressed for time this morning. However, looking at the pix above. The mud hole where the guys are stuck is just that - a mud hole. The army would drive around it, or fill it. Trying to blast through it is for boys playing...

I think the term Historic Military Vehicle is appropriate. If WE as private citizens own it - its NOT a military vehicle. If Uncle Sam owns it, it is a military vehicle. The servicmen in Iraq are making history just as surely as their grandfathers did on Okinawa - both are history, one just a...

Your in Texas, right? Find a well - http://72.14.205.104/search?q=cache:HTXW56ru7SAJ:stinet.dtic.mil/oai/oai%3Fverb%3DgetRecord%26metadataPrefix%3Dhtml%26identifier%3DADA062387+Multifuel+engine+crude+oil&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=3&gl=us&ie=UTF-8 Yep, the LDT burns crude! DD

RE: thanks ! Nice job Bart! I am curious, how does one find a HMMWV in Europe? Are they commonly available on the surplus market? Regards, David

Guess you could unload the truck the same way......

No drum movement - you don't want it spooling out while driving down the road. DD

And what was the brake fluid level like when you checked it? Regards, David

Oh, I wouldn't say that - several years ago they refunded a portion of my money because some components of a truck were missing. Regards, David

RE: memphis tranny won Call Memphis Equipment Monday at 901-774-0600. Ask for Raymond.

The registration number is sort of like the military's permanent serial number/license plate number. It is not the same as a VIN number, or manufacturer's serial number. It tells you, in code, what size the truck was/and or its original use, sometimes when it was bought, and its sequence in...

RE: Just Missed a Parts Truck Thanks guys - I bought this as a running, driving truck. The paint is rough on the steel parts - so-so on the aluminum bed. Any tips on sanding/priming/painting aluminum? Scott, I'd REALLY like to see photos of your truck - and the markings in the compartments...
