I am working on a M35A2 and I am using a epoxy primer(PPG omni). The problem you may have is it needs to be top coated with in 48hrs or you have to sand it.
Also I am using the Rapco Paint for the top coat. http://www.rapcoparts.com/manuals.html
The semi gloss OD is #24087.
Good luck with...
I checked this morning and my lights are 11' to the top of the lights. But I lowered the mounts 4".
See my pics of the mounts.
I just tied into the power that was already run for the wrecker warning lights.
I just put a set of convoy lights on my M936 and it was not to bad of a install. But the two nuts for the u-bolt on the lower right side are a B((*&^^.
The battery box is in the way and the foam does not help.
You did jump into the deep end!!
But it is all fun if you plan your pickup and just think about safety.
I did about the same think you did when I got my first MV.
Have a safe and fun recovery!!!!
The deuce I am redoing does not have a start relay on it. The new harness I got is for it will need a relay also.
I have not gotten to the point to try starting it, still just a painted frame.
Let us know how it goes.
I looked at the schematic and it looks like you need to add a #4 size wire...
I think it is a good idea to be able to disengage the front axle when in low range. I do not use low range much in the M939's, but I do not put it in reverse when I do.
