Found this article and thought it was interesting reading about M35 serial/vin numbers. The years built and the different companies that built them. Deciphering the codes: Kaiser-Jeep and AM General 2 1/2-ton Truck Production | Military Trader

Just realized Jeep week is only a 4 weeks away. last year a few of us planned to get together for the show at Barrett chevrolet but a hurricane kinda spoiled the plans. Last year they made a category for MVs so pretty cool of the jeep guys to add us in. Ive included a link to the home page so...

Last weekend I changed out the prestolite 65 amp alternator for a 65 amp single wire Delco 27si. I would have prefered to keep original but for the price of the regulator I got the new delco. Delco overhaul kits are only around $30 so for longevity and ease of getting repair parts I went that...

tried posting a few times with no luck ok, now it works here, should work there

We have just about finished painting the 5 ton and I have learned a couple things. First thing: We used Rapco 383 substitute with paint gun and that worked very well. On the M35 we used spray cans for brown and black since much smaller areas to paint. But when you use a spray can on a large...

Hs anybody found a cross reference # for the starter lockout switch on the M813?? Ive searchd on here and found it mentioned as well as the NSN# 5930-22-692-9258, but have had no luck yet on the internet or parts books crossing it over or finding a NOS one. Looking at the wiring diagram it...

The spring car show is coming up in Ocean City Md. Was wondering if any of you guys from the Eastern shore would be interested in going. Last year we didnt have the M35 done to cruise with it. I heard there were a couple Mvs cruising around last year. This year we have the M35 and M105 ready...

Went to Ft Meade yesterday and picked up a 1979 M813 w/w. Was curious as how much trouble it would be since Ive read lots of complaints. But i have to say I dont have a single complaint. Directions onto base were right on the money. Security, through the commercial entrance, although a line at...

My son and I decided to take the M35 to the local Christmas parade. Was a blast. I havent been in years and didnt realize there would be that many poeple or entries. There were 90 some floats, fire trucks, bands etc. The parade is at night and the town is well decorated, so its a very nice...

Finished installing winch but was missing a couple parts. The top cross piece above the winch drum, lock plate for PTO shift lever and of course gaskets, studs and ubolts. Found studs and ubolts at Napa easy enough, but decided to make lock plate and winch bracket. Couldnt find a good picture of...

Installing the PTO on our duece and went to drain the transmission and this is what I found. Seems like somebody else tried to get the plug out and striped out inside and then used a chisel on it. So I welded a bolt in it and turned right out, still was tight but at least came out. Ive used this...

Figured somebody else may need these part numbers. I searched alot on here and found the U joint numbers for the M35 winch PTO drive shaft. Napa # 369 or spicer # 5-153x. However I couldnt find anywhere on here the strap kit, or u-bolt part numbers. After some digging through some parts books...

Just wanted to give an update on our paint job. We read lots of painting posts and decided we would use Rapco 383 for the Green base color. Which went on very well. We mixed it just like the instructions said. One part thinner to 4 parts paint. Covered very nice and was easy to apply. Whole...

Anybody have any ideas on best way to paint bolts/other fasteners? We've started painting our M35 and was thinking of different ways to paint the bolts. Many items were removed and painted off the truck, which means fasteners were not painted, could always put through holes in a box or hang up...

In case anybody is wondering what this tag stands for, I Found a MWO applied tag, 9-2320-200-35-1. Searched here first, couldnt find what it stood for, but did find it on internet. Its seat belt installation. Maybe somebody else has posted this, if so i couldnt find it. Looks like my seat...
