    Getting her to OHIO

    According to GL, they will hold your SF97 request until you actually pick your truck up. Once you sign it out, then they send and ok to process your SF97. That's just what I was told when I inadvertly drove my GL truck home without signing it out:roll: The GL rep forgot and I got hung up on...

    Getting her to OHIO

    SF97 can take 2-4 weeks. Do you have a place to store it in the meantime? My insurance policy allows upto 2 weeks of insurance on new purcchases and I can get a 3 day trip permit from our WA State Licensing agency. You think your insomnia is bad? Wait until the night before your recovery...

    Ordering paint this week... Sherwin Williams CARC or Rapco/Gillespie?

    Besides the price is close to the same. CARC in person vs Gillespie's shipped. SW in Seattle is about $70/Gallon in stock w/no restrictions on who buys it

    Ordering paint this week... Sherwin Williams CARC or Rapco/Gillespie?

    definately my vote is on CARC! The Gillespie does look good but not flat enough to look authentic.

    is this normal?

    You had better get on the horn first thing in the morning before it turns into a default situation. I usually go on the chatline thing. If they haven't recv'd it yet, I resend everything while I have them on the chatline. They can go into the email print it off or forward the info to the EUC...

    If you sent everything via email, you should have gotten a reply from GL stating they have recv'd your documents

    PNW M342 / M342A2 dump truck troop seats

    I have had a set of these brand new fiberglass troop seats for 5 months now. I don't need them because they do not fit my M35A2. However, Junyard Wars Crusher just informed me that these troop seats fit the M342/M342A2 deuce dump truck. This is indeed a rarity and a bonus for someone who needs...

    Brake issues on a M35A2

    Yah, but seriously though. Because these particular trucks have sat for 5-10 years without use, you'll want to pull each hub off and replace or rebuild all the wheel cylinders. These trucks come equipt w/single brake systems. In other words, if you loose just ONE wheel cylinder you won't have...

    Brake issues on a M35A2

    LOL, actually the one you want is like 1200 pages long. I'd just download what you need for right now, print it off and take it out to your truck. You can check ebay for the paper manuals. This website is an invaluable resource. I got my first truck AUG08. So far I have owned 4 of these awesome...

    Brake issues on a M35A2

    The line coming out of the top of the Master cylinder is NOT a hydraulic line, it is a vent line. You will need to loosen and remove the line first before taking the cap off. On the back of each wheel hub are two bolts arranged at roughly 12:00 and 6:00 for each pad (4 bolts per hub). These are...

    Wow, did you really drive those trucks to Oregon?

    Brake issues on a M35A2

    It is air over hydraulics. The way to add fluid is right under the driver seat. You'll see a small door on the floor of the cab. Open it up and look down and to the rear. that little box thing is the master cylinder. Open the lid and pour some fluid in. Before opening the lid, clean off all the...

    Brake issues on a M35A2

    It was funny, when I went out there they told me that the winched truck absolutely would not start. They said it hadnt been started in 5-10 years. well, I took that as a challenge. I got in there and tried to turn her over to no avail, I then bled the fuel lines and after 5 minutes, she ran...

    Brake issues on a M35A2

    I went out to preview those trucks and noticed they had the pics switched on them. Maintenance on those trucks were non-existent there. The fire chief did say someone put a non-compatible brake fluid in the system that rotted out all the seals and plugged the brake lines. I didn't get in there...

    General Products Division was between the Jeep-Kaisier and AM General from what I remember. Mine was a '71 GPD M35A2
