    Deuce e-brake questions

    Good morning, The other day, my e-brake hung up and didn't want to release. I got it free, but apparently not all the way, as the inner shoe grooved the inside of the brake drum (couple of blue spots, multiple grooves, irregular pattern{s}). So last night, I am pulling it all apart and...

    Simple question, can the older, single wheel style landing gear on an M105 be swapped out in favor of the 2 wheel design? Is it a bolt up? And how hard is it to find the bows for the canvas? Thanks Clinto

    The A-frame kit (hoist) for M35-let's talk about it

    The A-frame hoist shown in the Operator's Manual (TM 9-2320-361-10) on pages 2-22 and 2-80 looks pretty darn useful to me, but yet, I have never seen one, or even heard it mentioned. I am curious what units got these, if anyone has even seen one, where you might find one and if you could...
