Does anyone know the manufacturer and civilian part numbers for the wiper blades on the electric wiper kits coming out on the m35 trucks lately? Can the wiper blades be found at Napa or Carquest?
Thanks,

I was driving back from a show Saturday and stopped by to get some diesel for my bobbed deuce and saw parked behind a gas station this cannon on a semi trailer. I went in and ask about it and they said that someone dropped off the trailer and they don't know who or why it is parked there? Looks...
Well, I am finally getting around to swapping out the cab on my bobbed M35 truck. I picked up an extra from Dave Oheim a couple of years ago. It has been sitting in front of my garage ever since. The kids have loved playing in it as a club house but I finally got tired of looking at it. my...
Could the diesel engine from a MEP-006A or MEP-015A be used in a deuce? It is a pretty large, counter clockwise rotation engine, under 2000lbs with about 165 HP. I think they run at 1800 RPM in the generator. It might even give the deuce a little more speed.
The big question is, would the bell...
I found a new heavy duty Curt receiver hitch that should fit the deuce perfectly. I like the fact that it has some drop height so that I won't need a drop hitch adapter as tall as without it.
It is Curt part # 15605 and has a gross towing weight rating of 18,000lb, and a tongue weight rating...
Hi, I have a friend who is restoring several M35a2 trucks and is looking for complete I.D./data plate sets.
We tried "Rod Shavers" MV data plates with no luck? He does not answer his phone??
Anyone have any other suppliers?

Anyone want to drive a deuce from Grayling, MI to Montrose, MI ?
Hi,
I am still working on my bobbed deuce. The rear locker is in and I am working on the brakes. Good thing I pulled the axle apart as one of the outer bearings had failed. It wouldn't have driven much farther!
Turns out the fuel tank has a hole rusted in the bottom.
Anyone have a...
Hi, I have found that I no longer receive notification when someone posts in a thread I am subscribed to?
I have checked to confirm that I am really subscribed to the threads.
I also checked that my email address is correct in my personal information.
Can someone help.
Thanks,

I am working on bobbing a deuce using the front spring set from a 5 ton truck. I currently have the bed off and it is the perfec time to get into the rear Differential.
I purchased two detroit lockers from Reider Racing several years ago. I had originally planned to install them in the rear...
I have been working on my deuce project and am looking for some components.
I was considering trying to install the 5 ton truck power steering components. Anyone done that? How much fabricating/cutting, etc is involved?
Anyone in Michigan have a spare deuce winch & associated parts lying...
Hello,
I have a question about what guidelines are used to determine that a thread will be deleted.
I started a thread about GovLiquidation eliminating all auctions for military vehicles. This thread was titled appropriately.
Soon after a member commented that this subject was being...
This new color scheme gives me a headache!
The background is too dark, and the orange lettering too glaring.
Is there any way to change it on my computer?

I am planning to Bobb my deuce,
I have a donor M105 trailer for the bed but still need a front deuce spring set for the rear of my truck.
I would like a set in good condition, not one that is all tired and sagged out.
Anyone who has (and wants to sell) a front deuce spring set, hangers...
I am preparing to bobb my deuce.
But before I do, I thought it would be good to ask those that have done it and other owners how they like their trucks. And about it's performance.
How do they go down the road? A bumpier ride or a smoother ride?
Is turning radius affected?
What would be the...
I want to thank everyone who participated in the convoy from Indianapolis, IN to Montrose, MI. I could not have done it without you!
Here is how it went.
I had been preparing for the recovery effort for a couple of weeks. Loading up the new M105A2 parked in the garage with everything I could...
The trailer is loaded and the time is set. We are leaving my house in Birch Run, MI for Indianapolis, IN. This Thursday at 7 AM. I loaded my M105A2 with everything I can think of.
I still have to make up the tool set and clean out the van.
I have:
Blocks, jacks, 40 gl diesel, tie straps...
