You have got to quit finding trucks. First the a M108, then this. Don't let Gimpy find a truck, it'll get scrapped! Dennis

Unfortunately, at 20,000lbs, 2500 is getting near scrap price. It better run perfect for that price. Dennis

Has anyone ruined injectors or pump head with unusual fuels?

I'm cheap. Heating oil, old gasoline, old diesel, lots of used motor oil, hydruliac oil, veggie oil, castor oil, and about 25-50% diesel. Filter it all and run it. Have to change filters about once a year. Only thing the truck doesn't like is straight gasoline, or too much motor oil(above 70...

The above link has pic's and spec's of the ramps I use. Dennis

The M108 still has round tubes, couple have been fixed by welding on washers and bolts. One of the things that needs replaced, have the arms to do it.

I could use some M108 parts, sent PM Dennis

Oilcan's leans a little.

The reasoning behind the bent frame sounds off. The clicking could be a number of things. You can sight down the frame rails and see serious frame bending. As to using a parts frame to repair, have to swap the mountingplate/with rear axles. Then you could cut out the rivets on the M108's...

Didn't think of the drag winch being in the way. If you raise the boom just enough to clear the cab, will it miss the rear winch? Was wondering if the wire for the boom light is just straight thru the swivel, or is on a electrical swivel like some horn buttons. Dennis

I (and many others) have converted to 11-20 singles. Here's one of many threads, just search flipping hubs. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=viewtopic&t=14971&highlight=m35+m34 Dennis

Yes on the 6 singles, 11-20 NDT's on M135/M34 rims. They seem to work pretty well. Actually had more traction off road, on the road it was slick under the snow.

I won't drive the deuce unless it's really snowy out. Once this year in the snow, and once last year. I try not to drive in the salt. Official storm total was 20.5 inches. Maybe we can get 24 next time! Short video of winching the semi. Was a little busy to get a good video Winch semi...

Very nice!

Very busy day yesterday, had about 12-16 inches of snow, and 30 mph winds. Sounds like a perfect day to take a ride in the Deuce! Have to admit, the road crews did pretty good considering. Was a Level 3 out, which means they will arrest you if your out driving(yea, right). Went to...

As M-35 tom said, the gear isn't pitted, just barely worn. No need to replace it.

I did a post on this about 3 years ago... I'll see if it's still around. Listed a website for the clevis. Here ya go, have to go back and add pics. There's a website listed about 4 posts down that has some info. Dennis...

Tire changing work is never done... Need to sort through the 35+ tires/rims so the M108 and your M35 get some decent rubber. Dennis

Okay, then that's not a big deal. I've just used a chisel or screwdriver to pry the old one off. Tapped a new one on with a hammer/punch, just was gentle so things don't get bent.

REAR axle? I must be missing something, didn't think there was a inner seal on the rear. Just the outer seal behind the spindle nuts, then a grease seal for the hub.
