    M35A2 Windshield Rebuild

    Apparently not around where I live. I went to two, they don't cut glass anymore, they only order glass for specific cars they are replacing it for and installing it.

    M35A2 Windshield Rebuild

    Wow, that's a lot of work. Nice job! I was looking at potentially replacing the glass on my windows as the frames are still in pretty decent shape. However I could not find anyone that carried or would make a flat glass windshield panel. How much did the glass cost to have made? Thanks for...

    Has anyone tried using the BEHR Premium Plus Interior/Exterior Multi-Surface Primer & Sealer as the primer and then used the BEHR flat exterior paint of the color of their choosing on their MV's? If so recommended as the primer over existing metal and holds up well? Any different then using...

    M35a2 Transfer Case Lever Movement?

    Mine does this as well. I can only feel it/see it when I let off the gas. It only moves slightly to the rear as you depress/let off the gas. Never had any issues with it, but it is interesting.
