    How do you paint your Deuce?

    I agree with you 100% To good looks non real in military standards plus its harder to re touch up if need be. Keep it simple!

    Need a favor from a M923A2 owner with a micrometer.

    You are talking about the diameter at the base right? Its the same from the base to the top in any case.

    MEMBER DOWN, Washington, PA

    Mr. E could he not bring it back with no battery charging? The motor is the old style non eletric type. The pump is manual. The shut off is electrical but thats it. He would only need juice for the stop lights and trun signals, no? Once he gets it going with the jump it should not shut off by it...

    M923 Transmission Assistance Please!

    The forward range and rear are seperate "bands". Its hard to see a auto trans loose front and rear at the same time. I would check first to see if the trans is really going into the forward gear. Block the wheels and apply the brake. You can do this with the motor off. A helper in the cab moving...

    Stupid 5-Ton Allison Transmission Question

    First off its not a dumb question at all. I dont know how easy it would be finding netural if your truck has locked up the brakes and also trying to stear at the same time. I thought I knew allot about 900 series trucks but its the first time I have heard of a non ABS. I was under the idea all...

    Stupid 5-Ton Allison Transmission Question

    Look at this another way.. What if your car motor shut off when you locked the brakes in a curve? It does not happen. When there is to much pump presure on a allision this happens. Truck trans's are not as forgiving or driver friendly as an car's auto trans. Lowering the pump presure helps as...

    Electric fan for Deuce

    One note for the wise.. I did lower the temp in my M35 about 12° by power flushing the radiator, motor, and heater core. I then added good anti freeze.

    Electric fan for Deuce

    Removing the thermostat is not an option. There is just to much flow through the radiator. The coolant must have time to cool before returning to the motor. There is nothing to gain from removing it be it summer or winter.

    Electric fan for Deuce

    EMR I have a 931 and 923A2 and use my finger to stear it some times around the hair pin mountain turns. I can make most the truns in one try, BUT The M35 needs both arms and allot of will to trun it and some turns I take 3 manovers all while me and my son talk back and forth with ear plugs cause...

    Electric fan for Deuce
