    m109a3 recovery suggestions

    yes, i listed it on uship and stated my preference for a back haul. There havent been any bids yet. I spoke with a pro trucking company and they told me that it wouldnt require any permits as long as it was on a step deck. I calculated that it would cost me about 300 in gas to just drive it...

    m109a3 recovery suggestions

    obviously on my upcoming recovery i have two choices: drive it or ship it. Its about 450 miles and im really wanting to haul the truck as opposed to driving it. Im sure that by hauling it i can save a considerable amount of money over having it shipped on a larger truck. Has anyone shipped...

    LDT's in the cans

    Ive seen these being sold for as much as 6500 by some of the parts retailers. BOTTOM LINE, we dont know how much damage moisture has done to these. In most cases, an engine sitting around not being used is the worst thing that can happen to them. Im not saying to steer clear, this could be an...

    Can I turn an M35 into a family hauling, 5th wheel camper towing rig for under $12K?

    THIS! BUT 5TH WHEEL CAMPING IS NOT TRULY CAMPING. IF'N YOU WANT TO DO IT RIGHT GET A M109 OR JUST USE YOUR CANVAS AS YOU'R TENT. :beer:

    Radiator repairs.

    get a good radiator blue. Spend your money well here. You know this but were in texas and it gets very very hot bro. You dont want the steel to take a dump on you and over heat. just my two cents. Im going to have to replace my radiator pretty soon.

    What's missing in pic, plug? no plug?

    its definitely the fording plug on the bottom of the flywheel housing. I found it on a link after searching the forum. Come on guys! im still learning. Not trying to ruffle feathers.

    What's missing in pic, plug? no plug?

    ok heres a puzzling question. logic stands to reason that if theres a threaded hole somewhere, theres supposed to be a plug in it. On the engine ive seen many of these plugs threaded into misc areas of the manifold, block etc. I crawled up under the m35a2 to trace leaks. I then noticed that...

    my short ownership of a deuce

    sounds about right....you win some you lose some but to me these types of things are the most of the fun. if it was an everyday driver that gave you nothing to look forward to would you enjoy it? This is all part of having a deuce. congratulations on your new mv

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    I installed all new twist on filters.

    in a bad way!

    My guess would be that its going to take you a considerable amount of time to flush the engine clean so that it will run right. The ignorence of people kills me. I realize that these are " multifuel " engines but what would possess someone to just drop motor oil into the gas tank? Even a...

    Uses for Deuces

    We used the m35a2 to camp several times, then i figured i needed to camp in style. I figured if i was going to do it i was going to do it "full bore" . I bought a m109a3 that i have yet to pick up, but ill be doing an rv conversion on it. When my family goes to the lake we will be taking both of...
