...so I have a nice puddle on the floor and the power steering pump is dry. Is any special fluid recommended or can I go to my friendly NAPA and purchase whatever they have as a replacement?
Thanks...

I find the replacement civy wiper blades for the M939/A0 A1 series but not the arm itself. Will the Anco/Trico replacement arm for the Deuce work on the 5 ton or is it a different item unto itself?
Thanks...

I've got the Baldwin spin-on oil filter adapter with a Fleetguard filter and the Those Military Guys air filter modification "cage" with a 546664 filter, now I need a suggestion for the fuel filter setup. I've read several of the threads that talk about using a Baldwin spin-on fuel filter...

Has anyone come up with an alternative replacement window for the PITA standard issued shop box windows on the M109/M185? I'm tired of screwing around with mine, especially the sticking blackout covers, etc., etc. etc.
I've gone to several RV window sites and have found what look to be some...
In looking at the AM General M939 series trucks on GP, it seems that every one of them seems to run a different oil pressure, anywhere from 35-95 PSI., low or high miles/hours notwithstanding. Is there a "normal" oil pressure for the AMG M939 series or do they really vary that much?.
All I can...
Did the M939 series AM General 5-ton trucks, specifically the M934, all come with the same engine? I've heard that they were either the HC 250(?) or a Cummins '8.2 liter'. Anybody have the definitive answer?

When replacing the stock oil filter canisters on my M185A3 with spin-on units, I noticed the labels attached to each. On one canister it mentioned a "warranty". I wonder what type of "warranty" Toole Army Depot provided on their rebuild and to who? The other label seemed to indicate that the...
If I Hand't Mentioned It Before......I'm living proof that insanity runs rampant in my family, at least in my own genes, as evidenced by: http://www.govplanet.com/jsp/s/item/551711?h=4-22%2F6-22&reloadCode=close,551711,1426694981267.

A few things that I need answers for regarding my M185A3:
1. Has anybody built one of the Canadian cab racks as shown in the TM's for the M35? If so, was it worth the cost of materials and labor and did it fit without resorting to 'adjustments' with the sledgehammer?
2. What would cause my air...
Can anybody provide me with a clear pix of the M185A3 dataplate? Mine's not readable in several areas and I wanted to send dataplates.net a shot of what the missing areas say for his repro.

The holiday breaks gave me enough time to scrounge thru, unload and work my way to the bottom of the pile of NOS parts that I negotiated for when I bought my former M109A3/current M185A3 truck. So today I'm down to the bottom of the stack with only 5 rims with shot transport tires, a rusty...
Not really knowing what to look for to differentiate between a M109A3 and a M185A3 prior to purchasing my truck, and which the past owner(s) weren't aware of either obviously, as the truck was always titled and advertised as an M109A4, it wasn't until I checked the data plate upon receiving the...
I've located a M185A3 boarding ladder in PA and need it delivered to Central TX. Anybody making the trip and how much to pick up and deliver?
Thanks...

I've located 4 mounted 9.00x20 tires in Jacksonville, FL that I need delivered to Central TX. Anybody making that trip anytime soon and what would you charge to pick them up and deliver?
Thanks...

Attached are pictures of the parking/emergency brake handle on my '66 M185A3. After reading prior posts on the forum, I'm thinking that this handle is the "early" style. What I'm not sure of is if there anything missing from it, like a cylindrical adjusting cover over the cable stem and bolt...
While checking out the batteries on my M185A3 today, I noticed that some, if not all the cables coming into and exiting the battery box are dry, cracked, frayed and probably not too long for the world. I've read on the site to use 2/0 welding cable for replacement, but is that size for all the...
"Eve Of Destruction" arrived at her new home last night at ±9:00 PM, thanks to the steady hand of 98G who towed her the 1167 miles from Pleasantville, OH to Waco, TX starting the day after Thanksgiving. ANYBODY who ever needs a recovery done or parts picked up or delivered can't do better than...
Anybody in the Dallas I-30/I-35E or the Ft. Worth I-30/I-35W areas have secure storage and able to receive towed delivery of my M109A3 on or about Dec. 1st, 2nd or 3rd?
I will retrieve it the following weekend.
Payment for your time and effort.
Thanks...
