Today's Update Well the engine and air compressor is locked up.:( Got the nephews 5 and 7 scrapping mud yesterday! They love the "dirt road" and want me to check it out every 7 minutes or so Pressure washed the whole truck inside and out this morning..round 2 tomorrow morning. Then I will pull...

That's hard to say, I have been cleaning, moving ol' 8 Ball every night after work and the boss has started complaining that her car won't be done...........But I told her to wait till the weekend before I start back on her car! Hoping to pressure wash all that preserving KS mud today/tomorrow...

Thanks Alot! I don't know how/when I could get out there as me getting to take a road trip seems to be impossible!:sad: I talked to Kevin this morning and he seemed to think he did not have the data plate, but he was going to look. He is going to write a short narrative of what he knows of the...

Needed parts! Here is the rundown on parts needed at this point: First (high) priority: The Parking brake mount and parking brake on the back of the transfer case. then everything is low, low priority : Passenger seat assembly Adapter for the addition of a front winch to the PTO I...

Yes Thanks, it is M135 6689 I am hoping he has the data plate with the title...if not yes Thanks I would love to get the Data plate from you! More questions I planed to add a conventional hitch in the future anyway and the welder for the CO forestry service was VERY good, any suggestions on...

Thanks Guys, That's Cool guys! Hope the kids don't see that...probably have to get it right away! LOL!!!

Haven't gotten a chance to check the motor...will have to sneak it in! I live just south of Glendale and just east of Pasadena. Same type of street as you see in Hollywood same time frame early 20's they were laid out with the idea of an occasional single model T going down the road! Yes...

I wasn't really wanting to chop the frame, I wrestled with it for awhile actually...and after realizing that one of the primary factors for getting this now quote unquote "parts" truck was because of the frame I am against it. I am on the lookout for a M35 bed that still has the troop seats and...

Hi Dan, one shaft was disconnected carnage photo to be posted soon. It didn't help, I would have tried getting the axle up and tires removed if I had known...that probably would have made a huge difference! Thanks! I wish I had the half track here for the unloading... I think I am going to...

I'd love to..I don't understand the mentality of my area of Los Angeles and its anti-military bend. It is sad. I have a FEW years to go till retirement though. I have decided to do the same as I was with the other truck and have troop seats in the back then it gets classified as a bus and the...

I will still have to single it out (parking laws here) don't know what to do about the 12 foot bed (anything over 9 foot is automatically commercial and can't be parked overnight..and even can't be in residential driveways (if they can and do stretch the law to their benefit). I am also going...

Had to call a tow truck for last 20 feet...:sad: But the wrecking crew was happy Well here is the problem they LOVE the truck...so much the truck has stopped being a parts truck for the 1943 Army COE 4x4 to being the one restored and the COE is put on the back burner!

Well Guyz and occasional Gal we have a problem a BIG, BIG, BIG problem. As most of you realize I had bought this M135 in November of last year and had 4 transport companies flake on me (one took me for a deposit even!) Well I found one that didn't and the truck got home to me. It was an...

No I contracted it out in the end, it is the first one not to flake. Load out was at 10:30pm last night in Great Bend KS with the assist of the halftrack...sad I missed my ride in one! Thanks goes to Kevin Lockwood and crew!

PS once it gets home I will start a thread in the hot rodding forum...well once the Torino's done otherwise the boss will kill me! But I will sneak some work in...hehehheh

Thanks for the suggestion edited title and added Hydromax manual!

Brake System Descriptions, Parts and Troubleshooting While researching Hydromax conversion for the soon to be coming M135 I found a wealth of knowledge covering everything from air pack to hydromaxs...if you scroll to the middle it has identification and even fitting sizes! I do not know where...
