    M35A2 starting issues

    How old are the batteries?

    Will start only with a squirt of starting fluid. Runs great once started.

    I would run a separate fuel line from a container of clean fuel directly to to injection pump so you eliminate the fuel system. If it starts up after running a bit then at least have narrowed it down to a leak somewhere between the tank and the injection pump.

    Need help with Brakes leaking down and needing bleeding constantly.

    Your order is correct except the drivers front is first then the passenger front last.

    Need Help, Brand new to the Deuce!

    The button controls the quill inside the hydraulic head which in turn controls the timing of the injection of the fuel to each fuel line. If you have fuel to the injection pump but no fuel out of the injection lines it’s usually the bottom came off. You can check this by taking off the center...

    Need Help, Brand new to the Deuce!

    The button under the hydraulic head probably came off. Search Hydraulic head and you’ll find a lot of information on this.

    i know not another tire question

    Just type what your looking for on the internet seach engine and it will pop up. MRAP rims are cheap adapters a little more and tires can go as high as you wanna pay. Just use really strong bolts to bolt them on.

    What fluid goes here?

    Assuming your talking about the power steering on an M54…If so it’s usually hydraulic fluid. Definitely download or buy the TMs though.

    m923a2 recreational vehicle upgrades

    I get to drive by this behemoth at least a couple of times a week and also had the pleasure of speaking with this wonderful couple when they left the truck in New Mexico. My hat is off to anyone that’s willing and able to take a trip like they did and I for one am jealous of the truck and the...

    15.5r20 michelin tires

    The 15.5s are going to be a lot smaller than the 14s. I wouldn’t do it. Bead is the same. 395/85r20s and the 15.5r20s are basically the same size. 15.5 is about 45 inches tall 14s are around 48 inches tall

    Throttle adjustment

    Is the cable to the transmission supposed to move like this or is it supposed to be adjusted and tightened down? Also is there any sources to get new modulator and throttle springs. Mine are a bit worn out.

    M923 & M925 questions

    With the On Spot chains just remember not to go very fast. They are fine till around 35 mph but after that they tend to tear right off. We have been experimenting with snow socks this winter and have actually been pretty impressed with them. They are a lot easier than chains and give pretty...

    Air leak under dash

    Hello from right up the interstate!’

    Air leak under dash

    I’m not exactly positive on this but that looks like your low air pressure switch that shuts off the buzzer once you build air pressure. I would try replacing it. Type in M35a2 low pressure switch and see if it looks the same.

    M35A2 Master Cylinder Bleeding

    Make yourself a pressure blender out of a weed sprayer. It’s pretty easy and it makes the job a lot faster and easier. There’s examples on here somewhere.

    Dogbones

    I got the front upper done today in about an hour!! I figured out that this “Golden” wedge from Harbor Freight fits right up against the bolts behind the spring pack and a few heavy wacks on the pointed side knocks them loose. Use safety glasses…. I pulled the ends together with a ratchet...

    Dogbones

    Got the rear upper done today…The u-bolt nuts wouldn’t budge at all so I put a splitting wedge in there at an angle and knocked the heck out it till it came out. The hardest part was trying to get the new one back in. Just couldn’t get the holes lined up at all. I’m bleeding and bruised but...
