I was going to suggest the same thing, although for $20 you can get a 2.5"/3.5" combo dual harddrive docking station that connects to another machine via USB 2.0.
Feel free to send me a pm with questions or options. I'm a huge geek...
I'm not sure that setup worked at all. LOL
Good to see some more pics, I think I have a folder called "drool worthy" that I stick your stuff in...I'll have to add these.
I have state farm as well and they won't even insure my M915 without a trailer. I understand that the OP is driving a M35.
But one should never get in the habit of I have 30 days. This is not the case of its better to ask for forgiveness than permission.
NAPA usually has everything I need however some of the more one off parts will have to be gathered from surplus outfits.
You can't walk into most part stores and ask for a M35A2C wheel cylinder.
Fuel and oil filters, fluids, belts, possible a compatible air filter should be available at NAPA...

Of course a ORD shackle flip is a good option as well. However these trucks are nearly 30 years old new springs could be a good idea. At least for the maintenance trucks and ambulance bodied version.
I used to get 85% remaining 37" Goodyear MT HMMWV tires for my 98 chevy. I used aluminum 9.75x16.5 rims no problem.
In fact used tires are easier to mount that new, I also used equal rather than weights. Radials are pretty true, Bias ply's usually have a funny shape, Goodyear MT's are radials...
