    Some questions on using Gillespie Paint on non-military vehicle

    In So. Texas, I have had good results using naphtha. (Coleman stove fuel works)

    Finding the "good" wheel cylinder kits...

    Perhaps we can make our own from beer bottle caps. Joking aside, people on this site are quite resourceful.

    New to me M35A3, suggestions needed

    Congratulations! I had a feeling you could get it running. Keep us updated as you go. Maybe a transmission clean out and fresh fluid will get you going. Check the transmission t.m.

    Loved the calibrated stick! I used cans of oil. You remember when oil came in metal cans, right?

    Air Horn installation on M1045A2

    M211 horns are wonderful for reminding other drivers not to pull out in front of you.

    I do hate to hear that. I'm sure you are correct but I like drum brakes.

    Need some electrical help m108

    Definitely need to have a cover on the voltage regulator if it doesn't have one. Does that have a foot pedal starter or a relay to engage the starter? A dash 10 manual would be helpful. You can download on on this site. Hope you get it going.

    M35A2 Air Pack Questions???

    Try a major and minor brake adjustment. It's kind of irritating until you have done it before. See operator's manual.

    New to this... 1952 Studebaker 6x6 M35, need good advice!

    You could pull the starter, open the solenoid and clean the contact disk. I think Tactical Repair has a video on this. Disconnect batteries before removing the starter!

    M35a2 Deuce NO START

    I just watched the video. That is a hoot! When the white smoke started, I knew you were going to get a runner out of it.

    M35a2 keeps blowing headlight

    Get a headlight shell/reflector that uses H4 bulbs of the 24 volt variety. They are out there on Amazon and other places. You just make a headlight plug to Packard adapter. They are pretty vibration resistant and MUCH cheaper.

    M35a2 Deuce NO START

    Yes, what is the latest?

    M35a2 Deuce NO START

    No, use a higher gear. If you try to pull in lower gears, the tires will just slide.
