    M35A3 Owners unite

    I'm having to troubleshoot crank no starts at the moment. One is electrical and the other is missing the fuel tank pick up tube and check valve. Does anyone have a parts truck? My marts truck doesn't have a fuel tank which is totally Murphy on that one. 😅

    M35A3 Owners unite

    Yes this is the original coat of CARC. They should have layered it on a little heavier imho.

    M35A3 Owners unite

    Count me in for 2 Navy M35A3s. I've got 2 donors (not related) as well. These two crank and fire on either so there's hope.

    What have you done to your FMTV or LMTV today

    That's about what a good running A1 costs these days private sale so you're not too far off the mark but you paid for it in time and stress I'm sure.

    M818 for business

    M915A1 is immediately out especially on stock tires. Even with 395's you've got all your weight on the front axle that isn't powered so more reason to pass. If you're wanting something that's ready to go a M816 or M936 (preferred) would fit the best. It has the weight, weight distribution...

    11r22.5 vs 1400r20

    The other option is look for a set of 11r24's off a M916/M920 if you like how it handles right now. They're very close to a 14 and you can dual them up of course.

    Using a 5 ton as a towing vehicle?

    Yes, I've got a M931A2 and M936 ready to roll. If you're wanting more power, speed, and style I have something military for that too. :beer:

    Howdy dbduchene, Most people go with the M1078 unless you plan to stretch it like you said. @ramdough bought a M1083A1 from me and just had his stretched for his build. Like Simp said, I have a few models on hand. I also have an M934A1 if you're trying to cut to the chase and start doing the...

    1973 M54 or M51???

    I agree with NDT. The "saddle" tanks makes it either a dump or tractor and with it having a PTO but no winch (assuming it's not been removed since factory) leaves it to be a dump. More pictures the better we can tell. :beer:

    Where did all the big trucks go?

    Could we get a confirmation on this "5 ton and up"? I'd hate to drag a 916 half way across the country only to be told it doesn't qualify.

    Miltope MSD V2

    Does anyone have a P/N for a HDD caddy and cable? It would be awesome to put a SATA SSD in this unit to bring it into the late 2000's lol. Are you still needing assistance with the MSD diagnostic software?

    Rebuilt Motor made it a mile.

    Who says that? 😅 That being said just slap a running take out in it and move on. At least you can run it on the test stand and do any repairs there before it goes in. A running take out is about $1500.

    M932a2 not starting.

    There's a black box on the driver side firewall in the engine compartment. Hit it with a hammer. Now try starting it.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Scrounger's M931A2 made it my way and I gave her a good steam bath. Now I appreciate camo in all its finer points but when you've got shag carpet on the fenders it has to be cleaned. :ROFLMAO: The engine and cab were clean from the start!

    Where did all the big trucks go?

    So I've been reading about this AM General contest and what exactly defines a "5 ton"? Does it include anything larger than a 5 ton that was made by AM General? We all know that they made the M915 family (yes yes they acquired CCC but it was made under their ownership) and they stamped their...
