What "wind up thing" are you talking about? They're a gas. If you're getting the one that was in the classifieds, congrats! It looks like a good one. I don't recall what all is needed on the brakes or what can be adapted. Sent from my E6910 using Tapatalk

My buddy still has the truck. He doesn't drive it because it blew a master cylinder seal and the parts are almost impossible to find. The death wobble turned out to be the tires. They were so out of round that it wasn't funny. We put new tires on and it turned into a really fun truck. Sent...

Background: I just drove the truck from Arizona to Kansas with 98Gs incredible help. When I picked up the truck it started to occasionally pop out of high range. Neutral, full stop, and it would re engage without grinding. I adjusted the linkage and tied up the handle. That worked until the...

I just popped open the brake cylinder hatch to check with a socket, they're 5/8. Sent from my E6910 using Tapatalk

The truck started the day as a faded green truck... It ended the day as a tan truck with 98G slapping most of the paint on the old beast. (It's younger than me... So I guess it isn't that old.) We used Colorpalace Premium matched to Rust-Oleum sand for easy touch-up. It will be interesting to...

I purchased my 87' M35A2C at auction in Utah along with the 72' M44A2 (530C) Firetruck. How that happened was an all too familiar story, I am sure. Basically, I threw in two bids on two truck that were marked "Inoperable, parts missing, tow away." I was reasonably sure that I wasn't going to...

I want to see more of this build... inquiring minds want to know WHY there is a 5T airbox on this beautiful truck.

Well,if we are pulling out the stops... this is the best vehicle commander I have ever had. If you don't love the puppers, you are just cold. It fired on the first bump.

I guess it is time to campaign!

Let's give this a try. Here is my 1987 M35A2C.

Devious minds are thinking about cooking up an abomination of a project. The recipe includes: 1 part rolled Toyota Tacoma with a Total Chaos long travel kit/Deaver rears 1 part M35 cab, fenders, hood, and front clip 1 part M1101 or M101 hull. a dash of plasma cutting a jigger of welding and a...

Well, yesterday started as a normal day. The plan? To move the 530C that a coworker bought from me some time back. I had just finished putting a set of G177 from 98G on the truck, it looks fantastic and the ride quality in my tests around town proved to me that the truck handles and rides better...

I am in Socorro, let me know if you need anything while roaming through!

When is the FEMTT getting hyrail gear? :-P:drool: I know I have said it before... but your fabrication skills are second to none Soni. Awesome work.:not worthy:

Hey Jones! Any updates since I last saw it a couple of years ago??!!

Anyone able to make it?

I installed a remote brake reservoir kit on the 72' and got the 54' running. WOOT!

I have been thinking more and more about putting a 5th wheel plate back on the 54'. Obviously, since the truck has been stretched forward and aft of the bogie it is no longer a true M-45, and with the 5th wheel plate on it won't fit into the category of a M48 because of the stretched wheelbase...
