    M35 tires

    Also you will want to get some good quality heavy duty jack stands or some good wood cribbing to support the vehicle while working on it , never trust the jack by itself.

    What's an M35A2 worth these days?

    Two issues with your question 1. 1988 was the last year produced for the A2 (Air Force trucks duel circut brakes) 2. 6500 original miles, the way the military swaps gauges its hard to claim original miles other than for that odemeter. Just my thoughts.

    color interieur CUCVs

    As a "professional restorer" you should have factory color codes by each year and special order contract . So if you are disputing the information provided here please provide the correct factory documents to back up your claims.

    1999+ 6.5L marine motor, questions?!?!

    I believe he was refering to the crank rotation . Viewing the motor from the front it should turn clockwise. A lot of marine engines turn counter-clockwise depending on the application.

    Won a MEP-803A with trailer at auction - but how long will it take to get home?

    The condition of the tires will be a big factor in top speed . Are they weather checked ? Have they been sitting flat ? Do you have a spare to take?

    "Categories of Risk", or "When Everything is Emphasized Nothing is Emphasized"

    A internet forum probably isn't the best place to post pictures or discuss unsafe and illegal things that people (members) do. It doesn't show the hobby in a good way .

    M1009 no wait light, no GEN 2 light, no volts.

    A good place to start is probably checking for power to the fuel solenoid on the IP.

    1986 M1009 - Fuel problem/Injection pump maybe?

    That sounds like a lack of maintenance on your part , either shrink tube or liquid electrical tape would solve that problem . It would only take a few minutes and a few dollars to fix.

    leaking rear axle seal

    If you let it leak you will end up with oil soaked brake shoes (that will need to be replaced) and still have to fix the seals. Do the inner and outer seals .
  18. porkysplace

    found this leak this afternoon!

    Not much of a difference on what's leaking either way you will have to change the seal .
