    Two and a half tons and lifts

    That ad from Northern lists the 4 post lift at 12K pounds. I know that a bobber weighs less than a stock deuce, but I wouldn't want to be under it. Sounds like a painful way to go.

    M35A2 transfer case shift lever

    Thanks, I'll try that. I figured it might have something to do with the linkage for that lever being loose or worn, but I couldn't find anything loose and it locks in to high/neutral/low with a solid click when I'm not moving. I would prefer not to spend time or money digging into it as long as...

    M35A2 transfer case shift lever

    My 72 M35A2 has a tendency to pop into neutral on the transfer case lever. When driving in high range, the lever moves forward while I'm accelerating. What should I look for to solve this problem?

    Dropped conversations?

    Thank you for taking the time to explain. I realize that managing all of the ins and outs of 95,000 plus members, as well as their messages and posts, takes an enormous amount of time and effort. And there is no way to account for user error. I very much appreciate what you do to keep this forum...

    Dropped conversations?

    I'm wondering if anyone has trouble with messages not being sent/seen? Over the past two months I have sent several PMs that went unanswered. I understand that sometimes people get busy, or forget to answer. I'm just curious whether other folks have trouble sometimes. Thanks.

    Deuce brake woes

    Success! I did try mixing the old fluid with the new, it turned a nice plum color and stayed that way. After bleeding I have a good firm brake pedal once again. Thanks to all who put their 2cents in. I truly appreciate the help. Now for a nice long test drive.

    Deuce differences

    My 72 wo/w has high headlights and the heater intake in the flip down panel. Just curious, where would the heater intake be if it wasn't in the side panel?

    Deuce brake woes

    I'm having trouble with my 1972 M35A2. It started with a major air leak that wouldn't let air pressure build past 60 psi at idle. I hooked up my shop compressor to the emergency glad hand and found air rushing out through the slobber tube vent. After doing some research I concluded that my air...

    Battery Cable Lengths

    As I said, I didn't install my batteries i just measured what is on my truck. By all means go with what the manual says. Wasn't trying to give false info, just wanted to help.

    Wiring harness

    I can't find it now, it might have sold? You could try posting a parts wanted ad. Good luck with your search.

    Someone was selling a NOS front harness in the classifieds. I'll see if I can find it.

    Battery Cable Lengths

    I measured mine just now. I've owned my truck less than a year, and I did not install my batteries, but mine are installed this way: Negative batt to frame rear of battery box is 28 inches. It bolts on where the ground cable for the slave port is. Pos batt to neg batt is 5 inches. The positive...
