I've been searching for a pair of troop seats and headache rack here in Michigan, but Polverone gave me a tip on a set in Atglen, PA zip 19310.
The problem is getting them to Michigan. It would cost more in freight charges then the seats do.
It's a long shot, but is there anyone coming with a...
Does anyone have the wiring diagrams or know the connections for the ether injection hook up? My truck came with everything mounted including a full bottle of ether on the firewall, but the wires are not hooked up. Looks like one might hook up to the coolant sensor? The injection nozzle is...
Here is a pic of my turbo boost and EGT gage set-up. Thanks Bjorn for the tip on Hewitt. They were very helpful. I spent some time with them on the phone specing out gages and thermocouples to match the engine requirements, etc. This was a new application for them as well. They even sent 24v...
This topic was talked about briefly before the 'big crash of 2005'. Thought I'd post a pic of the cover I got from Weebee Webbing if somebody was looking for a place that makes them. High quality workmanship, heavy mil spec canvas, good people to deal with. I'm not affiliated with them, they...
Wow! :shock: Wish I had a stack of these to sell at this price. Had no idea they could fetch this kind of $$. I better weld mine on.

Just curious, looking for feedback/opinions.
Which is more desireable by the general public purchasing a Duece?
An M35A2 (cargo/troop carrier box), or an M109 (enclosed van box).
The latest GL auction in my area showed that the M109's were commanding a higher price than the M35's.
What are the flow/press. specs for the M35 primary fuel pump?
Flow: G/S (gph)? Pressure: kpa (psi)? I would think low flow, low pressure.
Do any of you guys run a fuel pressure gage? I'm thinking about adding one to mine in order to help monitor the intank pump condition.
I think Saturn...
A good friend of mine is a cub scout leader and asked me if I would like to bring my truck over and give an army truck demo to his scouts. I said sure. These pics are the result. I took them on about a 45 min ride through the woods. It was great. They were really pumped up. Funny thing was that...
What is the thinner/paint ratio for gillespie paint? Red oxide primer and 24087. I'm brushing it today on new slats I made for my troop seats and headache rack. Thanks!!!
I got to thinking today, (I do that every now and then :idea: ), that jeeps and hummers come with hard tops and hard doors, soft tops and soft doors, and dueces come with hard tops and hard doors, and soft tops and hard doors. (Yes there is a caboose on this train of thought). But were soft...
Anyone have one of these? A military 3KW single cylinder Wisconsin Robin diesel genset.
Likes or dislikes, are they under rated at 3KW, easy/hard starting, etc.?
Hey guys, as I was sanding off the layers of paint on my front bumper, I got down to about the original layer and started to see yellow. :confused: I carefully sanded some more and an insignia came through. I'd like to know what it is. Sorry, no picture at this time, but I'll describe it...
What is the average life expectancy of a duece engine? :confused: Before needing a complete overhaul.
Providing it was not abused, PM'd at the required intervals, etc.
Lets say the 465LDT-1D for arguements sake.
Slow day.
Heres a trailer pic. Got this from GL. Very clean! No rust. Great tires. I think it spent its life covered with a genset in it. Notice the spot in the bed where something was bolted down.
It also has jerry can muonts in the bed as well. It now has sides, bows and a new vinyl top...
Great site, been reading it for quite some time.
The NSN for a PTO unit on the M35a2 transmission (Spicer 3053a) is 2520-00-706-1137.
I've been told PTO NSN 2520-00-740-9588 is for the same application, but cannot verify this. Would this be an updated PTO with a p/n change? Can anyone confirm...
