    M35A3 Tires , Something to keep a eye on .

    Yes, 5ton and up.... It's a heavy, extra- high load capacity tire. Six of them, put on a M54 W/W could still carry more than twice the max. highway cargo load, at 50mph...... if the wheels (plus everything else) were strong enough! Actual tire data, below... G.

    M813 super single question

    I say yes, since they have about 1" less backspace than the 5ton 20x10" combat wheels. In your case that would add two inches between front tires and substract two, between rears. (with rear hubs remaining unflipped & rear wheels dished out) G.

    M35A3 Wheel to hub O rings

    RR, do you have the TM 9-2320-386-24P? Figs. 117 & 118 show all O-rings and seals, hub to spindle. Front and rears are different. G.

    M35A3 Wheel to hub O rings

    .... OP said "tire changeout".... I think he meant the O-ring between wheel halves...? If so, the part# is 12363606, NSN # 5331013147598 G.

    Differential and sprag or other system

    Your's is NOT "permanent" or full-time 6WD. YES. Front axle is driven "on demand" only. All early 5tons including 800series came that way, same as Deuces with sprag T-cases. G.

    Correct! .... for both types, radial AND cross-ply. G.

    More tire tech (with questions)

    I think 12.50 in that particular list actually is a typo... If you search other MPT tire manufacturer catalogs you will always find them XX.5RXX or XX.5-XX (no cero following the five), or their more recent metric equivalents XXX/X0RXX or XXX/X0-XX (Example: 14.5R20 = 365/80R20) As far as I...

    16.00 x 20 Tires on a Deuce

    So what? That doesn't make it right or solve the problem, IMHO. See drawing... Again, they can be mounted, but they should NOT.... The "only" danger: a front tire blowing apart at 55mph, starting around its overstressed bead section...:!: Also, you still need to run tubes in a tubeless tire...

    16.00 x 20 Tires on a Deuce

    .... and please remember that 12.5s are NOT to be mounted on A2 wheels, either................................ for the reasons already explained, over and over & again! Edit: .... just read your last post, above: been there, feel your pain, tube type tires suck....! You should really try...

    mounting tires

    More than knowing what "can" be done you should know (or learn) what should or should not be done. I already responded to your other thread: you should NOT mount the 14.5 on a Deuce rim, for your own and others safety! And also, you should NOT "Cross-post multiple posts or threads about the...

    mounting tires

    Stop trying!.... and start looking for M35A3 wheels. Or any other MPT style wheel, 20x11" size. You want to learn, search for MPT wheels and/or MPT tires... Here is one: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/deuce-modification-hot-rodding/17472-15-50-14-50-xl-tires-stock-deuce-rims.html#post176159 G.

    speed increace with 53's or 395's

    Assuming you are running the 11.00-20 NDTs? Looking at the Michelin XZL specs chart below... and also assuming that 11.00-20s and 11.00R20s are very close considering loaded radius and revolutions per mile... then, at constant rpm, 52 mph would be increased to: 56mph with 395/85R20 60mph...
