    Anyone going to Barstow to inspect?

    Anyone headed to Barstow for inspection soon? I won a M35A3 and as I'm 400 miles away, I'm hoping that someone can give it the once-over to let me know if I need to trailer it, or can take the chance on a self-recovery. It's my first EUC, so I've got another month plus before I can pick it up...

    M35A3 Owners unite

    John, I just bought one on GL. Waiting on the EUC clearance but have been researching transmission options. Can you talk a bit more about your 6-speed conversion? Cheers, Clarke

    Rear Seat Base

    I have one new box, and one rear box I can take out. One for each side. I even have a seat base I think. PM me. Clarke

    Another Runflat Question

    Tony, the issue is 2-fold. 1) the lip of an 8-bolt wheel is designed for a bias-ply tire and will not properly secure a radial tire. 2) the wheel is rated for something like 30 psi max. Radial tires typically run up to so psi.

    Rear Seat Base

    Do you need the plates that go over the boxes and the high-back seats bolt to it? I have one or two of those - or do you need the box itself? Cheers, Clarke

    6.2 to 6.5TDL?

    It wont fit. The engine in the HMMWV is offset to the passenger side. The body is in the way of a side-mount turbo.

    My first Deuce

    Great vid, one question: Was it just me, or was the front axle not locked in the last part of that video - looked like the rears were spinning and the fronts hardly moving? Cheers, Clarke

    transfer case ID

    A 218 in the Hummer would require different driveshafts, and would be a step down. The military pulled all the 218's and replaced them with the AMG242HD t-cases - stronger/better and smaller. Actually come to think of it, the 218 might not fit with an A2 fuel tank - anyone try it? I seem to...

    what year did AM General start building M998

    Body number is stamped into the body at the base of windshield - in front of the a-pillar frame - right in front of the windshield gasket - about 8-12" in from the edge of the truck on the flat part. Hard to see if the truck has been repainted several times. Hopefully your number matches your...

    any place to buy NOS whistler turbo?

    So what's the deal with the whistler turbo? Is it a C or D model engine? Is there an advantage to it? How do you know which turbo you get? Thanks!

    What did everyone get from Redstone today?

    Ah, your the lucky guy that got the truck "WITH WENCH"! Good price if it comes with a comely wench! :-) Was $1695 your closing price? I tried to capture all the prices right near closing - but the site was acting wonky. Cheers, Clarke

    Where to find tubes and flaps for 36x12.5's?

    WHOA, The HMMWV bias ply RTII tires - on a HMMWV 2-piece rim, WITH beadlock/runflat is designed for use without tube. A bias-ply tire on a rim designed for radials, or without runflats in the HMMWV wheel is a very bad idea as the bead can roll-off. Regards, Clarke
