I picked up an M66 ring mount at the Georgia Rally two years ago and just now got around to installing it on my M35A3. I sandblasted the three legs and primed and painted them. Then I discovered I had a problem. I should have measured the legs before I started, but they looked like they were...

The Blairsville Garden Club in Blairsville, Georgia is having a plant sale this weekend. They needed to transport a large number of plants to the Union County Farmers Market today for the sale. I was asked to provide my two Deuces to help with the plant move. A friend drove my A3 and I drove...

Does anyone know a source for the exterior data plates for an M35A3 W/W? I'm talking about the data plate on the drivers side exterior, and the ones dealing with the winch on the front left. I know where I can have some made but I haven't seen any already made for sale.

I let someone drive my M35A3 today. They really liked the truck, but made a comment I didn't much like. The guy had apparently driven a school bus back in his past. He said that driving the A3 was like "driving a green wobbly school bus". He said the sound from the CAT engine coupled with...

I need to move an M35A3 composite hood from Washington State to Georgia or somewhere in the SE. Send me a PM.

Does anyone know of a source for NOS M35A3 CTIS wheel valve repair kits. There are detailed instructions on how to rebuild the CTIS wheel valves in the TM, but I have never seen NOS kits for sale. I have not yet tried the manufacturer. It appears to be relatively easy to refurbish the wheel...

While replacing a rear wheel on my M35A3 with one I picked up from Big Camo Truck, I needed to use my 3/4' impact wrench to loosen the lug nuts. I hooked up to the emergency port on my A3 and was only able to remove one lug nut. Raising the RPM to 1500 allowed me to get another one loose. I was...

I finally received my SF-97 for my new M35A3 after about a 30-day wait. I had a very fast EUC experience of only 12 days, but the SF-97 was another story. Today, I went to the Dept of Motor Vehicles office to apply for a title. This was the State office in Atlanta, not a county tag office...

Has anyone had any luck eliminating moisture build-up under the front floormats in the M35A3? Any water that leaks in seems to go under the floormats and collect there as well as moisture condensing from the air. The rubber floormats don't let it 'breathe' and dry out.

I posted a classified ad for a 14.5R20 tire wanted to buy a few days ago and it disappeared for some reason.

I recently recovered an M35A3 from Fort McCoy and completed a 1000+ mile trip home, most of it on the expressway. My newly acquired A3 averaged 6.37 MPG over the whole trip. I have driven my 1969 Kaiser Jeep Hercules LDT with D turbo several thousand miles since I recovered it. I currently...

I just picked up an M35A3 at Sparta and it has a different color of brown CARC on it than matches Gillespie '383'. Sparta had a lot of A3s on the lot and all had the same color brown as mine, except one, which had the standard '383' brown. The brown on my A3 is much lighter than the standard...

We have about 10 inches of snow on ice here. I have a lot of experience driving M35 trucks with conventional NDTs in winter conditions, both in the U.S. and in Germany while stationed with the 3rd Armored Division in 1970-71. I have owned my own M35A2 for over a year now and just recovered a new...

M35A3 Recovery at Sparta after EUC in 12 Days I won the bidding on an A3 at Sparta. Now I have a problem, albeit a somewhat good problem. My EUC issued in only 12 days and I now have minimal time to plan for my pickup. I plan on driving the A3 back to Georgia. The A3 appears to be in excellent...

I took the Deuce out to do some work today. I had two oak trees that I needed to take down that were leaning over the house. I hooked up the winch and put tension on the trees in the direction I wanted to drop them. The winch worked like a champ. I put tension on the trees with the winch...

Does anyone know someone in Gilmer County Georgia with an M116A2 trailer? I went to pay my ad valorem taxes today for my M116A2 trailer with MEP-003A GenSet. Lo and behold, I was informed that I had sold my trailer about two months ago. This was news to me, since I still have the trailer and...

Well, I removed the fuel tank on my MEP-003A and thoroughly cleaned it, as well as all fuel lines. I also cleaned the fuel strainer and replaced both fuel filters. After re-assembly, I cannot get the engine to run. It initially started and ran for about 3 seconds and died, obviously due to air...

I have an M149A2 water buffalo (USMC) manufactured in 2000 and i am trying to identify the bracket in the photos below. The bracket is attached by one bolt to the left side of the crossmember running between the front frame rails. It is oriented to the left, but this may not be correct. It...

Anybody parting out an M149A2? I need two manual dispensing water valves, P/N 261G. These are the ones that go in the side boxes.
