I have dismantled one of my A3 wheels. The grommet under the valve stem is supposed to be torqued to 40-65 lb-ft according to TM 9-2320-386-24-1-1. The brass nut on mine was only finger tight. Interestingly, that tire was not leaking air. I suspect the rest of mine are similarly loose. The...

I don't think you'll have any problems running the Miller 875. However, you didn't mention the power requirements for the compressor.

I'm really glad you posted this. I was going to start a similar thread, but never got around to it. As I mentioned in my recent PM, I am having some issues with my CTIS as well. The TM has a lot of good information, but does NOT explain how the CM Automotive CTIS system works. I've found...

I have State Farm insurance in Georgia for my M35A3. It's a commercial policy restricted to non-commercial use. No problems and reasonable price.

It sounds like you were dealing with a more intelligent life form than I was.

To properly tighten up the fittings without damaging them, you need a flare nut wrench set. If the fittings are clean and properly tightened, they will not leak.

After changing from motor oil to Dexron III in my A3, I decided not to upgrade to Castrol TranSynd. I had flushed 5 gallons of Dexron III through the Allison, and today I flushed another 3 gallons of Dexron III through it. I decided five gallons wasn't enough. I have now listed my five...

It was the Georgia Dept of Revenue, Motor Vehicle Division. I don't have the name with me, but she was the manager of the Title Transfer Dept.

Success!!! I finally received the title for my 1998 M35A3 today after a long fight with the State of Georgia. The State of Georgia finally gave in and admitted that there was nothing in State law that prevented me from registering the vehicle. They had been pushing for specific exemption...

Yes

I believe the main purpose for adding the turbo was to reduce smoke, not add power. Unless you want a turbo, I'd leave it the way it is.

My A3 didn't come with a step like my A2 has. I'm going to add a step to my A3. Whatever is done, safety is paramount. There is a lot of iron out front that can do a lot of damage if you land on it. It is also critical to secure the hood with the latch once opened. A little wind can ruin...

I would start by calling GL and ask what they recommend in a case like this. You can also try to contact the guy on the SF97 and see if he will sign it over to you.

I'm convinced that lower viscosity is the main reason the Allison transmission shifts much more smoothly and quicker with the ATF than the motor oil. I drove my A3 again yesterday and I am amazed at how much better the transmission feels. My transmission is the 1545, which locks up, and the...

You are correct and I should have given you credit! Those valves are working out great for me.

If you suspect coolant in the oil, I would drain it and check. If kept clean, you can put it back in if you don't find any coolant and it isn't due for an oil change. I would clean the engine as thoroughly as you can where the leaking oil is located and then try to locate the source. Try to...

I'm very sorry to hear about your situation. Welcome to the site. If you really must sell your CCKW, you should post it in the Classified Ads.

Welcome to Steel Soldiers. You'll find a lot of good information here. Good luck finding your CUCV. Beware - MVs are an addiction.

You can get the 1-1/4 brass pipe from any good plumbing supply house. They may have to order the pieces you need, but they are readily available., except for one. You will definitely have trouble locating the 1-1/4 X 3/4 X 1-1/4 brass T. Wholesale Supply Group had to special order one for me...
