    Cooling question...

    I would first check to see that the lower radiator hose is not collapsing under suction. The coolant is sucked from the bottom of the radiator by the pump and expelled back into the upper part of the radiator if the thermostat is opened. If the lower hose is not collapsing, the next thing to...

    If there is need for a larger generator, I can bring my trailer mounted MEP-003A generator. Plenty of power, but VERY noisy.

    2011 Ga Rally t-shirt poll/order thread

    I previously ordered 3 Large shirts but didn't specify long or short sleeve. If not too late, I would like to specify two short sleeve and one long sleeve, all large size.

    I may be able to get my hands on some credential holders if you are interested. What size are they and how many holders do you think you would need?

    So are you saying no one makes a 3/4 ton WC gas tank?

    I would also look in Europe. Try posting on http://hmvf.co.uk and ask for advice. There was a lot of American vehicles left in Europe from WWII and a lot of people are restoring them. Also, if you can find a sample, you can get almost anything duplicated.

    Not wanting to start

    Ditto on changing out all three fuel filters. If the WMO in the tank is not really clean, drain the tank, flush the tank and lines and fill with new clean diesel before clogging up your new filters.

    Looks very good! What about putting complete names in addition in smaller font at the bottom, except for people that don't want it?

    Deuce M35A3 Tires

    They will definitely fit, but whether they are safe or not is another question. The bead and rim are different. Many say it is not safe while others run the 395s without problem.

    Pulling with winch

    Whenever I'm winching something that is even remotely close to approaching the shear pin failure point, I use a snatch block.

    Replace A3 wheel/rim?

    :ditto: As mentioned previously, there is no reason your tires should leak air if the proper procedures are used. I simply clean both wheel halves, install new o-rings without any sealant. The TM says not to use sealant. I also install new grommets and torque to 45-60 lb-ft. I also have the...

    Welcome to Steel Soldiers. We are waiting for photos of your truck. I'd like to hear more about it.

    M35A3 Owners unite

    The first thing to do is change the fuel filter. The filter is a CAT 7E9783. After changing the filter, open the drain on the water separator. While someone cranks the engine, check to see if fuel is expelled from the drain. If so, this eliminates the fuel pump, leaving the IP as a potential...

    I''m leaving Hiawassee Thursday morning, joining someone in Demorest and another truck near Athens. You are welcome to join us, but you are probably too far away.

    Only 125 miles for me in my M35A3 (or my A2 if my A3 is still out of commission). Are we there yet?

    Pintle Hitch for M101A3

    Welcome to Steel Soldiers! I would recommend getting the raised pintle. I have an F150 4X4 that I pull an M116A2 trailer with, and this trailer is a modified M101A2. With the raised pintle, the trailer is almost level. Your 4X2 will be sitting lower and I think you will be happier with the...

    Could we have a A2 forum and A3 forum?

    Ditto. Aside from most body parts being the same, most of the mechanical parts are completely different. I have the same problem accessing M35A3.net from work or using my work computer. I was notified that I was not permitted to try to access the site anymore due to language. I was then...
