From one of the TMs I have been looking at it shows the bottom radiator support as having some sort of "spacer plate" before the two bolts go through the engine mount, then a washer, spring, washer, and nut. I have everything but the "spacer plate". Does anybody know exactly what this is made...

How do you guys remove the pulley from the alternator? I see that it has 3 holes machined in the pulley. I tried using a pin spanner wrench in the holes with a breaker bar on the nut. The only result was a smashed hand when it slipped and some not so nice words being exchanged with my...

I was searching some past posts and saw there was mention of a special tool for removing the 2 piece air compressor pulley. I think someone here was making the tool also. Does anybody have a link to someone who is making the tool or where I can get an original military tool? Thanks.

Does anybody know the Sherman Williams number for any of the CARC paints? I went to day to visit them and they kinda knew what I was talking about, but said if I could get them a sherwin williams number for it they could get me a price and see if they could get it. I know they are a supplier...

I picked up 3 new belts, and both radiator hoses today from NAPA to the toll of $112 :shock: Is this the norm or does anybody have a better source of belts and hoses for the M35. I couldn't believe how much that was and Sturdevants Auto Parts wasn't much better.

I am missing the right side upper radiator support for my M35. Does anyone have a spare one laying around that they would part with? This is the bracket that connects the radiator to the support rod behind the radiator. Thanks.

Well i'm planning on using the towbar to flat tow a deuce with a deuce. I was going to load an M105 into the bed of each deuce also. Question is, should I remove the driveshafts on the towed vehicle to help with towing and to reduce the risk of damage to the drive train? I have heard a lot of...

I have 4 m105 trailers that need to be picked up and transported from Ft. Riley to Southeast South Dakota. Does anybody have a hauler that they have used in the past around Ft. Riley that they recommend? I would also be open to anyone who would want to haul them with their own trailer. Thanks.

What do you guys usually idle your M35s at? Mine right now is about 550 to 600 and it shakes really bad. speed it up to about 700 and it is smooth. Tonight I had a friend of mine who works on hercules engines tell me that the tractors idle faster and I should increase it a bit for a smoother...

I wanted to know what the verdict was in filters for the deuce. I am between WIX and Baldwin right now for fuel and oil filters. I have a much better buy on Wix right now, but does anybody swear one way or another that one is far better than the other one as far as filtration and fit. I...

I have noticed lately that when I search for a topic say "engine oil" I have yielded very few results and most aren't related to the subject anyhow. I'm sure that there has to be several topics about what type of engine oil you guys are using in your deuces, but for some reason the search...

I have fuel spraying from the stock primary fuel filter on the top. I recently took it apart and cleaned out about an inch of sludge. I couldn't believe how much crap was in there. I don't have a filter for it yet so I cleaned and reused the old one for temp sake, but after I screwed it back...

Well when I drive my M211 and I use the brakes it locks up the middle axle and then it won't release them so I just end up dragging the tires. If I reverse they will turn for about a turn or so and then lock up the other way. I jacked up the axle and spun the wheels and they turn just fine...

Here is my latest buy. It's a 1952 XM-211 w/w. I bought this truck from a guy along with a parts truck. He needed the room and I had an addiction to fill, lol. I now have 4 of this series truck(other 3 in pieces), a 62 M37B1, and 2 M105s. I also might have my first M35a2c and a water...

What type of carb is used on the early M35 Reo gassers? I have some carb rebuild kits that are marked REO on them, but some of the gaskets seem to match perfectly up to my M211 Holley carb. I'm wondering if they used the same or similar carbs or if someone just messed up labeling. Thanks.

If an M813 has a bad tranny and doesn't move, can you still operate the winch with the engine running? Thanks in advance.

While inspecting the brake booster off my M211 I discovered that the large chamber on the brake booster was full on red grease. It also had some sand or fine dirt in there. I am curious where the sand or debris came into the booster. Has anybody ever encountered grease in their brake...

Does anybody know if you can swap the tranny in an M813 with one in an M54 series 5 ton?

I found a guy who has a whistler M35a2, air shift transfer, winch, gunner hard top, troop racks, 70% matching tires, some light rust and is supposidly a good runner that needs nothing. The truck has around 40,000 miles on it also. I was wondering what a fair price for a truck like that is...

OK, here is the problem. The butterfly shaft that runs through the carb on my 1.5kw generator and connects to the engine speed governor on the side is leaking gas. From there a linkage runs down inside the generator. Gas is leaking out along that shaft and then trickling down the linkage into...
