    M35A2 & trailer tires?

    1. The M35A3 comes with 14.5R20, not 12.5R20. 2. Either size are MPT-type tires which require special MPT rims. Your stock M35A2 wheels are NOT compatible for those. 3. If you want aggressive, more "modern" tires that will outlast your truck (& trailer) - and keep your stock wheels, go for...

    T138 jumping out of gear - fixed

    Hey, love that last picture! Sorry I had missed this thread until now... Yes, replacing both- high rage gear and the syncro (with new bearings of course), is exactly what I would have recommended, after seeing the wear on the clutch dogs, on both parts. And that worn shift fork may still do its...

    Looking for TM's

    First TM can be downloaded from our own library, here... 2nd one, for the M59: http://www.jatonkam35s.com/M105TMS/MKT/TM10-7360-204-13&P.pdf

    Nice high capacity winches, 24v!

    You bet. What is not, nowadays?

    Hood Handle Installed

    Here are some pics of the kit installed, but no dimensions, though. This is the original thread: https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/tired-of-fighting-the-hood.122862/ The OP has vanished over 4 years ago and according to this post it sounds like his project never really crossed the finish...

    Nice high capacity winches, 24v!

    Above link doesn't work for me... (?) Closest I could find to the 20K-winch mentioned is this one:

    Windshield inner seals, does anyone sell them?

    Forget those seals: 1st they don't really seal - rubber U-channel is way to thin to function as such. 2nd they only accelerate corrosion of the frame, by retaining moisture forever! Any good polyurethane adhesive-sealant (like Sikaflex 221) sure is the way to go. Easy to apply- and easy to...

    Door and windshield glass measurements

    I know I already did post this somewhere.... Here it goes, again: (Edit: should be 746mm, to be closer to 29-3/8")

    modern dual circuit air over hydraulic brakes

    Apparently not. I've read (twice) all 30 pages looking for just that. Might have overlooked it, though...

    M1102 wheel offset

    Those numbers are "almost" correct... FWIW, the nominal rim width is 8.25" and the total width measures ~9.61". Having a backspace of almost 7" (6.97") the resulting offset is +2.17" or +55mm. See this post....

    M35A2 Transmission Swap ?

    No, not compatible at all... There simply is not enough room for a 6352, it's almost twice the size (and weight) of the 3053. It also has a larger input shaft and output propeller flange. Most likely you will find your 5th gear with one- or more broken teeth.

    Humvee Starter / Flexplate Teeth

    ... and while engaged, how deep does this one go into the flexplate? I wouldn't be so happy with a contact pattern of only 1/2 of the width on the ring gear teeth - even if it starts (and sounds) perfectly normal, every time.

    M35a2 spicer 3053a gearbox rebuild

    Here you can see all the (revised and correct) bearing numbers for our Spicers... Read further down in that thread to learn about the details for bearing "DD".

    Main shaft removal - output bearing

    That pin keeps the sleeve for 5th gear from rotating on the mainshaft. Look for a wear mark in between two splines; that's where the head goes.

    Yes, stock M34/m135 wheels, which have about 1" less backspace compared to your typical M35 wheel, or in other words they increase your track width by ~2".

    Just wanna be sure as I'm seriously close to going super single...

    I agree. And careful with the 14.5 XLs, or any other MPT-type tires: They are not compatible with stock M35- or Canadian Deuce MLVW wheels! Its not so much about the required wheel width; rather the bead section that doesn't match.
