I checked them out when I removed them and they were rock hard. You can hammer nails in with them. Not broken, but there did not appear to be any give in them at all. Fully cured, I'd say.

Thank you Dave! They are NOS, correct?

Good advice. A Deuce was designed to haul light to medium loads over rudimentary roads. It was not designed to haul heavy and it was not designed as an OTR truck. Just because it can does not mean it should. A Deuce will haul 10k lbs. At 12k lbs you will be overweight, as per data plate. In...

Multi M35 - Does anybody have a source or type or number for new (as in not NOS) engine mounts from a readily accessible supplier? Do any current parts match them, dimension-wise? I looked at a few NOS and might as well leave my rock hard old ones in. The M35A2 has 8 engine mounts (isolators...

Mine did this when the hydraulic head on the injection pump started to go bad. It would start up fine, idle, run, but - at times - coming to a stop or doing a slow gear shift at low speed where the rpm drop to idle, it would simply stop, as if you had pulled the engine shutoff. If fuel supply...

Yes, in.

Yes, I can attest to the fact that the replacement rings come in a pack and two of them are marked "TOP", two are not and it made me very nervous when I put mine on. I also noticed that in the original military pack, oil paper and all, the rings were NOT all in the right orientation as a set. I...

I'd check all the belt driven accessories. Air compressor can chirp, too. One way is to un-do (i.e. loosen) all belts and listen if the sound is still there.

My guess is that they anticipated that the truck would be loaded until the material spilled over the side extensions, regardless of what any manual suggested you do. They made the bed narrower to limit Soldier A's ability to FUBAR. We all know that you can't eliminate this ability.

Good on you for asking this forum before you jump in hip-deep. If I were to buy a "running takeout" again, I would buy it for a direct swap - meaning, I would not be willing to having to rebuild anything on that engine. As such, I would specifically look for a "TD" marked block (thick deck) that...

Wow..you may want to think long and hard about removing it all. Someone went through quite some work to get a hydraulic system onto this truck...and PTO powered, no less. That means, you have 60% of the setup for a hydraulic dump bed (just make your bed dump) and 60% of the setup (with a...

Any standard ether start can will fit. NAPA or truck stop (although the newer trucks no longer use ether start systems). Tractor supply might have them, too. You should be able to identify the ether start solenoid the can screws into (can stands upside down) and there is a bracket to hold it in...

Could it be that the LEFT (driver) side lug nuts/lug bolts have a tendency to come loose? The Deuce has LH threads on the LEFT (driver) side, whereas the RIGHT (passenger) side has standard RH threads. I only remember offhand because my memory aid to loosen lug nuts on the Deuce is to turn the...

Wow...you really beat that thingy into submission! I bet the other injectors will think twice about getting stuck! At least you got it out.

Great video clip! Thanks for posting.

Wow that second one is a fire truck (M530?)...with paperclips (cut off)..and what looks like a skinny exhaust from the non-turbo engine. That is an exciting, lightning-speed ride with a heavy trailer!

Nice truck. From Kublos? I like trhe extended air intake. Obviously, you will want to retrofit the 9.00-20 NDT tires, so let me know when you want me to pick up those 395' that you won't be needing! :mrgreen:
