I ain't Mudguppy, but here are the specs on the C 8.3.. It would be my engine of choice, if /when the LDT in my truck departs this earth.

You may want to try this outfit...They have been able to provide parts for my 1945 Cat D4, although Cat parts are more common. Tractorparts.com : General Gear - We carry Used, New, Rebuilt&Spare parts for Caterpillar (CAT), International (IH), Allis Chalmers (AC), and many others

On my first deuce I drilled two holes, just like the setup on the toolbox door, but when I tried to insert the padlock I found out there was not enough space between to the fuel tank and the batt box door to use both holes. Since then, I only drill one hole and it seems to do the trick for...

Drilling a single hole to lock the battery box is one of the first mods I make to my deuces. I believe it will will discourage all but the most determined thief. It only takes 5 - 10 minutes to drill the hole and gives me some peace of mind.

Look on the passenger side of the truck behind the battey box... If see an airpack there then you have a dual circuit brake system.

FWIW - I have an ex USAF M35A2C and it does not have dual circuit brakes. My truck is a 1986 model...My oldest son has a ex-USAF M35A2C which is 1988 model and it has the dual circuit brake system. The easiest way I found to tell without looking under the truck is to look for the red brake...

I would consider making her into a dumper, if it were my truck.

Kyle - You may want to check ebay every once in awhile, thats where I found my alcohol evap kit for my truck.

Hello bond024 and welcome! The buzzer you are referring to is a low air pressure warning buzzer and it usually comes on when the air pressure is below ~60 psi.

Please post what you end up doing to resolve the issue. My MEP002A does this on rare ocassion as well, but if I lift fuel solenoid rod by hand and then try to start it works fine.

Hey srdocker - I found the front lenses, they are yours for the taking, if you want them.

I believe I have a couple of front lenses you can have. Let me look in my M35 parts container tomorrow and I will confirm.

My truck developed a leak and when I pulled the hub off, the cork seal looked fine. I believe my leak was caused by a in-op axle vent. It is really important to remove and clean the axle vents (trans and xfer case too) periodically. Since the leak incident, I have replaced all the vents with...

Conrgrats on the snag free recovery...Cool Christmas present!!

IMHO - Its a gamble either way you go....If I were in your position I would try to buy one from GL and take a local SS member with M35 knowledge to go look at the truck(s) you are interested in bidding on. I bought my first deuce from a private party in 2005 and she is still running strong with...

I use Delo 15W-40, but I would go with any quality diesel rated 15W-40. My first M35A2 had 15W-40 stenciled on the underside of the hood so you could not miss it when the hood was up.:-D

If you go with the WWII era you could do a D4...That is what I plan to do.

You could also try George at Whiteowl , he has winch parts and he is a great person to deal with. gmkivett@gmail.com
