    Tire brands Tire dating Tires Tires

    Ok, seems there are some dozen or so tire manuf (Cooper, Armstrong, Fidelity, Goodyear, Hawk, Bridgestone, Firestone, Michelins, etc) out there for the deuce. Now I have been told not to buy any MV tires that are dated over 10 years. Now, I know that tire dating is pretty much required due to...

    SF97 form question-Purchase price

    Got my SF97 for my '88 M35A2C I got last month. One thing that has always made me wonder about and keep forgetting to ask. When looking at the form, I notice that GL puts all the information that WE enter when sending off the SF97. Where does this PURCHASE PRICE come from on the form? It's...

    Forest Gump '88 M35A2C Recovery Kleiver Armory

    Just got home with my 1988 M35A2C. The day was pretty much uneventful and it appears Mr. Murphy missed me:wink: My day started out at 0330 hrs.

    USAF M35A2C truck value

    I'm just curious about what people paid for a later model US Air Force contract M35A2C (1986-1988). More specifically I am interested in the trucks equipped with the dual braking systems. Seems they all seem to come standard w/heaters, dropsides, hardtops, parking brake/low air warning light on...

    LD465 vs LDT465 differences

    I did a search and didn't find anything really explaining the differences b/w the LD465-1A vs. LDT465-1C,1D engines in a M35A2. Besides the obvious of one w/turbo and one without, what are the differences b/w the two? Are there any major reliability issues? Are there any benefits to an LD465...

    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...

    M109A3 shipping from CA to WA?

    I am brainstorming ways of getting a M109A3 home. Hmm, do I drive it home and chance getting pulled over by CHiP's by blowing past the 1 I-5 NB scale (Cottonwood) or should I just get this thing shipped. I'm leaning towards shipped. Anyone have any figures on what they paid or know what I can...

    GSA M35A2's in Shelton, WA-bad news:-(

    Hopefully no unaware Steelsoldiers bidded on these deuces. What I mean by this is the pics were reversed:-0 So the 1982 deuce does not have a winch but the 1965 does.

    Fort Lewis Parts Trucks

    Ok, what did those Fort Lewis deuce parts trucks go for? I thought about bidding on them but knew I'd have to tow them home and didn't want to bother with them. FYI, the one truck I looked at (dont remember which one) had all the fluids drained out of it including axles, fuel tanks, antifreeze...

    Deuce Canadian Border Crossing

    Went upto BC Canada over the weekend, good to see tight security on both sides. After going into Canada, I had an afterthought.
