    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Took off the 11x20 NDT's and switched over to G177 radials. 817 dump truck. Kept all 10! Test drive was awesome. Had no help, reaching for Ibuprofen now...

    First timer needs help with M35A3 project

    Hi and welcome to the nuthouse of military trucks. I would say to get your truck home, learn all about it, fix it up and run it and enjoy it. THEN decide about bobbing it. Take your time. Doesn't make sense to bob a truck and find issues you're not happy with.

    M915A1 tractor to trailer cable

    Your 915 has a 12v cable connection and if the trailer also has one (and it's functional) you can do it.

    M915A1 tractor to trailer cable

    I think you need to use that cable in the picture. That trailer should have the 24v connection only. I'm pretty sure.

    Oh oh, black fluid on the driveway

    Some local info- Boyce up in Ogden does a good job changing out boots and seals- if you don't feel comfortable doing it yourself, or if you don't have time. Also several of us around the 'front' that like to help out if you need or get stuck in the repair process.

    Safe- as in mechanically? Or safe- like in dodging the law?

    project options

    You have some incorrect data - first item is the M109A4 is not multifuel. I hate typing on my iPad so just suggest you read up more on the trucks. They do make great campers.

    Cleaning M936A1 Hydraulic Fluid Filter

    Ultrasonic sounds like a great idea. Can't think it could be a problem. I was dripping sweat out of my rubber gloves the other day and wondered why I never had that problem when I was younger? Do old guys sweat more?

    Cleaning M936A1 Hydraulic Fluid Filter

    Good idea on the towel holder. Do you have a filter gasket or going to use sealer or...?

    Oh oh, black fluid on the driveway

    You better move that truck to your office soon or your wife might do it for you:) Should be ok on your short trip. Very common on the deuce and a good project for you. Do the seals and boot repair before winter. It sucks to work in the cold.
