    M35A3 Air assist cylinder repair.

    I was able to find the seal required to repair the air cylinder from MFPseals.com. I believe the part# is PCD-500. I used a micrometer to measure my failed seal. You should do the same. The PCD-500 is a 5" dual action pneumatic seal with a 3/4" opening for the shaft. It was plug and play on my...

    Mildew advice?

    Try a desiccant bucket. Used them in my boat for winter storage. Inexpensive and always worked for me. Wally world has them.

    Sue's hydraulic power steering in his M35A3

    Would this system still have the redundant back up (manual) in the event the power steering system were to fail?

    What happened to Reverse

    Same symptoms on my A3 on Sunday. It was cold. No issues until I tried to back up. With the Allison trans I was a bit nervous about any issue in reverse. No doubt had plenty of power to the rear wheels. I completely rebuilt the service brake a year ago. (Those stinking springs.) Hoping it was a...

    Need help with strange fuel problem

    I had issues with the sending unit in my A3. Slime build up on the unit. Used Biorbor JF for diesels and it seems to have helped.

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    Coolant change and filter I thought my antifreeze/coolant was clean as it always appeared clear and green(think it was ethylene glycol) in the surge tank. Off roading last week and put my A3 through some vigorous hill climbing and descending. Brought it into my shop for a chassis lube...

    Cab and Body Vibrations

    I'm still working the rattles out of mine. As stated above, walk around the whole truck and look/feel for the origination of the noises. Cab insulation made a big difference in mine. They all shake a lot.

    M35A3 Winch controller

    Thanks Sir: I find times when being able to control from in front of the truck is helpful when I'm alone. Under extreme conditions i fully understand the safety the cab offers. Thanks again.

    M35A3 Winch controller

    Is there a way/device available so that I can manually control my winch from outside the cab? The pin that moves up and down to control forward and reverse is easily accessible and already has a hole. The data plates are not legible therefore unable to offer any model#s, etc. Thanks in advance...
