sounds like about a 9 to 10K truck to me..... You have made all the mods I would have chosen! If i were to start over I would just buy your truck and save myself the headache and time and go wheeling! I know all about buying high and selling low.. from my house to vehicles... deuces are not...

Doesn't "Invest" mean to get a LARGER return on your money and not taking a loss??

Great! The event I look forward to each year! Myself + 1 or 2 more.

I have a few tubes of the GAA for $8 new tube... Message me if intrested.

haha, thats what some people told me when I bought/ modded my Mil. truck! were they right? maybe, maybe not but I enjoy the process:naner: I would like a similar system but for use in FUEL line for WMO.:shock: New Ideas, methods, mods, products ect. should always be encouraged. Many times...

thanks for your thoughtful input, definatly worth considering,,, any 5T I might get would be a late 80's or newer.. i can do regular low level maint if I could find one at reasonable price id get a unimog or Pinzgauer! I LOVE those drive line/ diff. systems!!

A3 was a consideration! but I hear they are much slower? and the motor is problematic? I actually CAN change a wheel and tire 395/85 (not off the rim) I have done that recently on the street when I broke a valve stem and got a flat.. grrr at 320 lbs. I obviously couldnt lift one heh I...

oops

EBAY has a frankentruck w/ the ROPS lots of pictures in and out.... WOW those are expensive!!!!! 20k! no thanks mind if I ask how much you spent on yours?? PM if you like..:)

OldWorld, your post comes especially valuable to me as we have some similarities... I also am a 10 Year local truck driver, 3 axle day cab usually w/ 28/48/53ft. trailers. (I can relate) The guy who's trucks I drove today also had odly enough a franken like yours w/ ROPS yr. 2013 (this is the...

Frank thanks for the suggestion, as far as the Deuce I can do most common maintenance myself.. just cant do the larger heavier thing that require air tools ============================================================================ I am guessing I could learn on the 5T as well, I just wouldnt...

not with a 5T no... The main and ONLY reason I went with a m35 VS. 5T in the first place was the Multi-Fuel because I could actually "AFFORD" to drive it on a regular basis! using WMO heh. Now however, the situation has changed and I do not HAVE to run WMO/ so I can afford diesel. On a side...

Thanks for more info! as far as city driving I am referring to "suburb type" not inner city like a downtown environment. My Deuce already has the larger 395 tires, how much different is the turning radius (for a u turn) between the two anyway? Is MPG about 8-10 unloaded average driving an...

Thanks for the quick reply, I have no problems with climbing in and out oddly enough heh ( I'm a truck driver by trade) I dont know what else I can upgrade in my A2 (more legroom) easier that air asst steering, and tranny I agree on the 923a2 from some of the research I have ran across. I am...

GREETINGS! I am CONSIDERING getting a 5-ton due to increasing physical limitations. Back and knee problems ( I am beginning to need easier power steering and A/T mainly)) I have had my A2 for a few year and many many upgrades. However, I need an easier more city friendly truck. I am noticing...

sory to revive such an old thread, I need to know HOW one is to recalibrate speedometer gear? <br> and where would I get a gear for the 395/85 tire size swap? <br>thanks!<br>

Thanks Amerteam! will do.. I am looking for a radiator for my M35A2. (locally OR or WA) that's why I posted here. If anyone has a lead on one (even if it needs MINOR repair), please look me up!! thanks! Marc

xxx show?? what is this event? Where? I am unable to google it, I would be interested in tagging along also :-) I need to give my repaired radiator a good workout and check my new cargo cover tightness.. Heh

anyone getting one of those Hummers they have available on the Govplannet for "off road" use only?

Just an update for anyone curious what happened... I made it back to Portland about 22:30 :driver: What happened.. I made too sharp of a turn in a very large parking lot in Hawks Prarie on Martin Way about 16:00p between the Winco and (not so) Great Floors. the front tires dug into the...
