    M35A3 Paint Color

    The FS (Federal Standard) code for the 383 green is 34094, that is the number you need if you are going to match it at a regular paint store. To further clarify what Capt Marion said, 383 means the green/black/brown camo scheme, so when folks refer to 383 green, they mean Green FS 34094 as...

    Second Bi-Annual TX MV Rally

    Some of us are going to convoy from north of Austin, I'm sure we could work out a route to include you most of the way. We usually travel together when we can since having 3-4 guys standing on the side of the road looking at a broken down truck (or for Sarge, putting out a burning truck) is...

    MAZ-537 ballast tractor. Don't remember the extra letters in the designation (like TKL or KZL or something) off the top of my head, but it gives you something to Google! :-) Cheers PS- Check this: http://www.primeportal.net/trucks/egor_kalmykov/maz-537/

    Welcome aboard. I like your taste in vehicles! [thumbzup] Look at the various categories in the forums, and pick one that is close to what you want. Then put the specific vehicle type in your subject line when you post so folks can find it. Cheers

    Second Bi-Annual TX MV Rally

    I'm in too, but in pencil. Work can be unpredictable for me, and I often get to cancel carefully planned personal events to go do their unplanned stuff. But it puts toys in my shop and bread on my table, can't whine too much I suppose. Grateful to have a good job in these times! G/F says...

    Military U1300L Blackout Switch Functions

    As predicted, here I am! Chris, you were close.. :smile: The slider controls which "side" of the switch you are on and prevents accidentally turning on the headlights during blackout, and other such dangerous battlefield antics. On older Mogs there is a little pin in the center of the top...

    MAYDAY!- Clutch Pedal Flopping, No Disengage

    My 813 did that one day while it was idling right after I parked it and was letting it cool down. The pin that holds the clutch pedal to the actuating rod (under the cab) had fallen out, I found it just sitting on the frame rail. If it had happened a couple of minutes earlier it would have been...

    Getting an old M725 running again

    Yes, that is because we like you to post the pictures directly to the site.. :twisted: Most links go dead, some quicker than others, and eventually you have a great post with no pictures. A lot of good stuff gets lost to us that way. If you look down in "Other Options" when you are posting...

    Map Light

    Looks like a Unimog dash light. If so, it turns on when you flip the cover up, turns back off when you slide it down. Neat little lights. Post a pic when you get it installed! :beer: Cheers
