    Compressor pressure relief valve

    Nope, I'm talking about a safety relief valve. The A3s had a MWO for installing a tee at the compressor outlet with one side of the tee getting a relief valve. I imagine this was done to add redundancy to the existing air safety relief valve mounted to the tanks under the truck. Maybe it could...

    Compressor pressure relief valve

    Is that the same valve as what's supposed to be on the compressor? The A3 is supposed to have one at the tanks too, but I'm not sure it's the same part number as the one to put on the compressor.

    Compressor pressure relief valve

    As I get parts to put one on my A3's compressor, I was wondering: Did the A2 trucks have them as well?

    Battery Tender Setup for a Deuce

    I saw one on EBay and considered getting that, but the twin 12V Battery Tenders fit my budget a bit better.

    Battery Tender Setup for a Deuce

    How do you have the cords routed to the chargers?

    Battery Tender Setup for a Deuce

    I hooked up my deuce's batteries to a pair of 12V Battery Tenders. These units are waterproof (IP67). Each one is hooked up to a battery with the quick connect plugs and I have them tucked in between the bottom of the cab and the battery box. An outdoor extension cord powers both of them (the...

    what cordless tool are you using to get your lug nuts off

    I need to pull leaking front struts off my minivan this week so I'm considering buying an electric impact wrench (finally). I'm looking again at the Milwaukee 2767. Considering how powerful that tool is, is it possible to turn it down so that it totally doesn't destroy the rusted nuts and...

    Deuce will not start after several years of sitting

    Is the fuel pump all you can hear? There should be a low air buzzer too.

    All Military Vehicles banned from road in Maryland

    I think the problem some folks have is that they give their DMVs too much information. When I registered my deuce, I never said anything about it being military or M-anything. As far as they're concerned, it's a big antique pickup built by AM General, which is totally true. Also, I stick with...

    CARNAC's Historical VIN INFO Thread

    Haha no problem! I'm happy you put all those numbers up somewhere! I was surprised to see so much older stuff like the Korean War equipment. I looked up my dad's 1953 Dodge M37 last night and sure enough it's there! But a couple observations: -The truck shows up in the no-winch (winchless?)...

    halftrack back from an outing

    Hahaha one time when we drove it to a local car show, we did park it at the local grocery store while we went inside to get snacks and drinks. They sure stand out in the parking lot :LOL:

    CARNAC's Historical VIN INFO Thread

    Oh! So this is where all the VIN stuff ended up! Wish I saw this thread earlier :p @firefinder, can you please post the Excel sheets you put together? They will upload to the website as a zip file just fine, if you didn't know that.

    All Military Vehicles banned from road in Maryland

    I'm sorry to hear about this happening in MD. I'm going to keep an eye out for any MVPA bulletin that involves signing a petition or another means of support. Didn't they send something out like that for another state a few months ago?

    M35a3 lights flicker

    I'm not too familiar with M-series LED replacement lamps. Would they really need a resistor? I'd think that a resistor would be built-in to the lamp as being one less part to screw around with. It's one thing when working on a vehicle with CANBus, but for something as simple as an A3? I'm...

    M35A3 tach fixed itself?

    I got it out a second time yesterday to move some more big stuff and the tach still works right! I hope it stays that way🤞

    M35A3 tach fixed itself?

    I actually woke my M35A3 up from its winter slumber today to move some more big stuff from my old home. The roads were dry and looked pretty salt-free due to precipitation and melting over the past week, plus I figured on rinsing the underside of the truck with my garden hose when I was done...

    Filter Help M35A3

    While oil seems to work fine for my M35A3's transmission, I still plan on switching to Dexron III ATF in the springtime. The main reason I've heard that using motor oil in the transmission is problematic is because it eats at the inner seals. The seals were designed to work with ATF, not motor...
