    1962 White M35 multifuel

    Was that "mosquito"-killer a "running" takeout engine? Does it smoke a lot, even when idling? I'm thinking someone eventually pulled the IP and then installed it wrong? G.

    Anyone have any info on this Wheel?

    No, those are typical 20x10 MRAP-wheels. Here is a picture of the "correct" wheel... G.

    Anyone have any info on this Wheel?

    Most probably NOT...! Just to clarify: there are dozens of different MRAP-type vehicles and most of them have 20x10-sized wheels (like this one), which are NOT suitable for any MPT tires. So far I know the only MRAP models coming with 365/80R20 tires and thus the correct, 20x11-stamped (MPT)...

    Injector return hose side by side comparison. Tygon/silicone/Viton etc...

    Tire/wheel Question

    I mean replacing the stock center discs with new center plates machined to the correct (10-on-11.25")pattern; bolted and/or welded in place. G.

    Tire/wheel Question

    MPT tires - including the 365/80R20s - just don't fit on ANY type 5-ton wheels. Best if you could find two M35A3 wheels (20x11", MPT) and have them re-centered. G.

    Anyone headed east from California?

    I would contact Rob from TMG (Those Military Guys). I know that from time to time they make a trip to the east coast. He has been very helpful for me, with picking up parts and store/ ship them. G.

    Tire/wheel Question

    NO! See why, here... Your 5-ton combat wheels most probably have 20x10 rims, just like the HEMTT wheels referred in that post. G.

    Wehring - Tire wheel and runflat weight data

    I have about 10 of those GoodYear MV/T tires here, 95% or better. Their average weight is 220# (+/- 5#). Then I weighed a stock FMTV steel wheel (W/O CTIS-valve & hardware): 119# and a (steel) beadlock insert: 18# G.

    For the Vickers VTM42, which comes on the 5ton Multifuel, the "standard" figure seems to be 1500 psi. This thread has some good info. G.
