Hello again fellow MVers. I just found this web site and some information that I extracted on GAA grease. It seems that it was superseded somewhere after 1983 for many uses. It looks like a moisture content problem and of course newer technology came along too. I will do more reading but I...

On this subject, the L.O. datd April 1983 states to use GAA, Grease, Auto & Artilillery, MIL-G-10924. I've been doing an internet search of Mil-Spec lubricants and the manufacturers seem somewhat reluctant to publish this information which would be an additional selling point for them I would...

loose driveline bolts Those are mil-spec nuts and bolts. The only way that they would come loose is if the nuts were worn out when they were installed last time or they were not torqued when last installed. They should not be able to be turned down the bolt by hand and should have a fair...

Would anyone have any broken axles shafts for the rear axles? I would like to take a couple of broken shafts and remove the remaining shaft from the flange that mounts to the hub. I would then reinstall them on the 2nd rear axle, remove the short drive shaft, and drive it on the forward rear...

I have been looking for some old drive flanges for the front hubs that are worn out or damaged that could be made into dummy drive flanges without the splines. I have to make a 200 mile trip and can not seem to find any flanges or other similar devices that are 6 1/4 inches or larger diameter...

This is my second purchase & EUC submission since G.L. was instituted. I sent in mine certified mail last Friday. They received it on Wed of this week and the Web Site states it has been sent to Battle Creek today. Last (first) EUC was flunked 4 times and took 7 weeks to get to the "sent to...

I have the statement in the e-mail that lists the numbers for the different amounts that I will pay on my invoice once I am invoiced. This truck is coming from Mississippi and I am paying $XXX for the actual truck, 0% buyers premium, and 7% sales tax. My question revolves around this problem...

I don't want to make waves there until my ship has sailed. I was just wondering if anyone could point out what dash number it could be. Manufactuer is not critical. I'm assuming LDT465 but curious about the dsh number too. I don't know enough to which one is which. It does have the air shift...

I have two very poor quality pictures of an engine for a 1972 M35A2C WO/W with 28,000 iles on the speedometer which agrees with Medlog's history check. Can anyone help me identify this engine? They would not allow me to lift the hood or take my own pictures during preview. Are there any...

Yes I am aware of the state laws but that is an excellent point that we should all consider. I would be operating in an official parade with permits for special circumstances. Jim

Has anyone ever fabricated a mini-troop seat for the forward part of the bed for additional passengers to be used in slow moving parades, etc. I think that there would be room for two or possibly three young adults to sit if there was a mini-troop seat in that area. I do know that there has to...

Has anyone ever taken a ladder from something like an M109 shop van and retrofitted it to fit and stow on a M35A2 or A2C? It seems like this would be a nice addition for people riding in the back during parades & festivals. Could this stow under the frame area or on the tailgate? I don't have...

EUC is End User Certificate. You only need one for certain Demil Codes and the bidding area will tell you in big red letters if you need one. An SF-97 is the equivelant of a Title or Certificate of Origin and you must have it for most states (not all) in order to acquire a title. Some states...

In reviewing the TMs and the very limited MWOs that I can get my hands on as a guy on the outside, I can not find information on the Electric Wiper Kit that is an upgrade on the M35A2 & A2C trucks. My 2nd truck that I just purchased has this kit installed and I was wondering if there is an MWO...

VIN info O.K. first of all, you should charge a modest $5.00 fee or so for this and I think that we would all be glad to pay that. Your service in this area is really great for us owners of former Army or ARNG vehicles. I just made my 2nd purchase and have not been allowed to "rescue" it from...

1988m35a2c updates Are you going to flip the rear hubs? It appears that the rear wheels are slightly out of track but I could be wrong. Pictures are good but not as good as actually being able to walk up to it and smell / touch it. Over all the truck looks great. I would like to get tires from...

Off line for a couple of days. Robyn, thanks for the post. I agree that this is not good business but what is really "funny" now is that my paperwork came in three days ago in a Fed Ex envelope even though "We did not receive your request". SF-97, notorized SF-97 transfer statement, and...

Anyone had experience with G.L. at Camp Shelby, Mississippi? Never been to that base but will be going in a month or so. Inquiring minds need to know. After all, you can't have just one! Jim in Louisiana

Well on July 2nd they told me they had not received my fax request. Just as I was about to load my weapons (All of Them), the FedEx guy drives up today. I have my SF-97, the Bill of sale from Uncle to G.L., and the SF-97 transfer slip transferring everything to me. The two white pieces of...

I can't think of a more baby-friendly truck. If it has a bench seat it is a perfect place for a car seat. Just add one lap belt to strap the little MVer in and you are good to go. You got to start them off somewhere in our hobby so now is as good as any. Congradulations on the new addition to...
