The more I see the more I don't care to take the time to goto a GL site and preview the equipment!. I don't know how often GSA has a run of deuces in the Southwest - I may just purchase one from a private party if the price is right! We will see. I can't do anything until money is in hand though...
Well, so it is likely that GSA does not come across as much M35A2 for auction than GL? I see they have quite an assortment of deuces right now, I just hope to have this luck of finding them when I have them money!!! LOL

Wow - those are great!!! The only thing is I wonder how many tires they went through. You'd think they would also put a sheet of steel over tha exposed rubber in the rear!!! Anywho, thanks for sharing those cool photos!

You said "Folks at my local GL yards have better knowledge of the items being sold than the GL guys, but the GL guys are more willing to help you get the stuff loaded." Was there any meaning for GSA to be in there anywhere? I have watched both GL & GSA auctions and the guys I have talked to @...
In my endless quest for your wisdom oh great seasoned SS members, who would you more likely (or like to) do business with, GSA or GL?? I have seen some very decent M35A2's @ the Clearfield, UT GSA location. The prices definately seem less than what goes on with GL, in addition to this benefit I...
That would be SWEET if you could put in a set of locking hubs on the axle farthest to the rear. Kinda like the Jeeps do for towing. Unlock all the wheels and everything would free spin. Would be alot easier than taking out the inter-axle shaft eh? Is that what you are suggesting ironhorse...
If I am not mistaken in my electrical knowledge I believe that when the + goes to a - that would indicate a 24 volt set up (hence the deuces are 24 volt) via 12 volt batteries. If the + on one goes directly to the starter, as long as the rest are set up the 24 volt way, you should be getting 24...
Yeah, I am torn too MM, I like the SuperSingle and the duals. I will have to wait until I have one in hand to decide. Question for you though, what prepwork did you do to your deuce before painting? Any at all?
John
Yeah, that or that guy Stacey from the show 'Trucks!' on Spike TV - He has some done AWSOME things to Blazers, Ram Pickups, old Bronco's and the Copperhead project was WAY sweet!
If you miss a series called 'PowerBlock' on the weekends (Mmmmmmm, Danica Patrick) check it out, every gear heads 3...
Wow - well, there is a challenge definately!! I think the would be great though!! I showed pictures of deuces to my fiancee and she has become VERY interested in getting involved - an added bonus, she like the super single setup better than the duals (astetically.) I told her I liked the...
Thanks for the priceless information M1075! I have to say - I havr brrn on sevral forums and I have never met a more helpful and interesting buch before! It's really a pleasure to have found this site. Y'all are much appreciated!
John
P.S. - WHen I think of more to ask, I can count on...
Yes, cten it does help! I was under the impression I would be looking at LEAST 30 days to get the EUC. I have to plan accordingly with finances and all. Your experience definately helps me understand the process and give me hope that GL will be tollerable to do business with!
John
Not a problem M1075, I just figured with the fact of the GSA price of $1000 and under, those 5 M35A2's would be a decent find! Is there a manual to switch the hubs or is it just common knowledge? Not having one yet nor having something to refer to it's tough to visualize. I best wait until I OWN...
Well, that definately gives me some food for thought. I like the bigger beefy Super Singles, but I don't like the skinny singles. I didn't know you could change either way. I like the directional's and those big 1" lugs - that whould be real fun in mud! [^] And I think I would like the hard or...
FIND YOUR HAPPY PLACE!!! :turn: CALM GREEN CAMO, CALM GREEN CAMO!!!!!! [thumbzup]
Sorry to hear your having issues with the EUC and GL, however, your experience and frustration will help educate those of us who have yet to do an EUC. Keep it together, remember to kill them with kindness (at...
Ok, I went back and checked about 8 pages of postings in here and I would like to please know:
What are the advantages & disadvantages of having Dual rear wheels or Super Singles? Is it all just looks, or does the difference show elsewhere? Can you go from super singles to duals or duals to...
