Where is he going to find the correct winch kit? Has anyone ever seen an M35A3 parts truck come out with a winch? I follow the auctions religiously and I've never seen a w/w A3 come out that might be stripped for parts. I could have missed one, but I don't think so.
Why do you need a winch...
I really would need to see it in person to give you a real answer. Short of that, as others have stated, I'd need to see detailed pictures of any problem areas and also the truck's strong points. Of all the things you said, the suspension is the part that would concern me the most. I believe...
They are all over the place. Contact any big dealer. They will most likely have at least 10 for sale. I bet they'd probably have five times that in cores. I have never had any problem finding an alternator...but finding them cheaply is another story.
When I bid on a sealed lot previously, I was able to see the bids after the sale ends. I was the high bidder so I am not sure if that affected anything. Perhaps, you can try to find someone who won something. I realize it won't help you to find out the final prices on all of the items.
I have seen civvy mufflers that worked, but none (that I have seen...small sample size) that fit behind the heat shield. If you want your truck stock, you are probably stuck trying to find the right muffler. If you just want a muffler, you definitely can find a civilian muffler because I had...
Mark,
There is a low air sensor on the end of the air tanks right behind the passenger side toolbox/step (I believe there are two of them, one for the primary and one for the secondary air system). You will see a wire coming into the sensor. This is your problem.
The mufflers are getting...
They are cool. I just wonder how roadworthy they are. I would be nervous driving them at 50 MPH with that loader and backhoe! My brother was an Army Engineer. His unit used them. He liked them but said they were frustrating because they did everything and nothing well. He also said they...
My recommendation is to email info@govliquidation.com and ask them to confirm receipt of your EUC. That way you are covered in case they say they never got it (default situation). I do that anytime my EUC does not show up in my account within three days. Good luck.
Yes. I did this same thing on an M929 dump that I owned a while back. It had 1100s on it and I converted it to super singles (1400s). Sorry it took me so long to respond. I only stumbled upon this post just now.
Better to just put the chock blocks in the tool box unless you don't mind scuffed painted. If you drive the truck much, they will rub on the CARC...that is if you care.
Try to find a 3/4 ton trailer with a crank up landing leg. You will thank me later when you have the trailer loaded. Most don't have it, although I have seen some come up with the crank up landing leg. They are very rare from what I have seen.
Bob, I like to think, and I am sure others will agree, that you are more than welcome here. I don't think guys like me or guys who mod there trucks are any more or less welcome to post and contribute to this site. I can appreciate the work put into re-engineering a truck or part. I have...
WEHRING, good job. There are a lot of hurdles to clear to get a truck home. A lot of guys think they will be able to steal a truck by getting it from HI...not true as I have experienced and you can see here.
BEASTMASTER, I have often thought the same thing. The conclusion I came to is a lot of guys are not really military vehicle enthusiasts. Instead, they are big truck or off-roading enthusiasts. There is a difference. Sure, there is overlap, but there is a difference. For this reason, those...
