Searched for this but can't find. Have a spare engine I need to put in the barn before winter and need to know the weight of the engine proper (without trans) so I can determine if my kubota can do the job. As always, Thanks. Gene

Am on number 2 of the 4 radiator caps I got from OD iron. This one leaks too. Any advice from Devilman or others as to where to get good ones or how to modify so as to minimize chance of leaks. coolant seemed to come from the bottom outside edge on the first one and from the top center button on...

Searched for this topic but found no previous threads. Is anyone aware of solid tires made for the deuce? I am less concerned with traction than I am with punture proof characteristics. All around mud chains should take care of traction. As always, thanks. Gene

This post may be a little unorthodox for "the deuce" but this is what I consider my "watering hole" so I figured it would be appropriate. I want to say thank you and Happy New year to the men and women that comprise Steel Soldiers. This site and the people that contribute to it are unique...

Despite the raised eyebrow or two that may result from this question, I must ask. What parts of the deuces electrical system would be rendered inoperable by EMP? Yes, I realize that one would not need to worry should one be to close to the "event." Spare parts in a Faraday box might be a good...

Suppose I could have just PM'd the thanks to Robert for the wrench I just got for my compressor but, Nahhhh. Have seen prev threads indicating that there are people who want to work on their compressors with other more mundane tools. IMHO, good on you all for your intestinal fortitude, but hey...

Was reading the thread about Dennis in Shelby helping out. First things first. Great photos Dennis! Thanks for being the kind of individual who takes action. [thumbzup] I apologize if this has been covered already but I gotta ask. With respect to plumbing my own rig for deep water ops do you...

As is the case these days I was reading my TM's before bedtime and I noticed that under the brake bleeding section there is a diagram that shows the master cylinder filler plug with a vent line leading into it. Funny, when I was cleaning off the top of my deuces master cylinder yest in prep for...

Am thinking of getting a trailer for my M35 and was wondering what would be the best trailer for off road stability/carry capacity on a deuce that was loaded with 4 to 5 thousand pounds of weight in the bed. Thanks. Gene

well once I got the tandem axil bracket repaired and changed out all the fluids in the m35 I noticed oil dripping down from the starter. Traced the origin to the bottom portion of the exhaust manifold where it bolts to the block and even a slight amount from the exhaust portion of the turbo...

Below are some pics of my tandem axil bracket repair in progress. My thanks to SS and all who gave advice before I started my first MV repair. The axil bracket that came with the truck was destroyed when the mounting hardware came off and the truck continued performing duties. List of weapons...

was thinking of getting new rubber for my m35a2 with singles in the rear. most driving off road and remote. was wondering which tires would be good/aggressive tread while maintaining proper spacing between rear wheels/bed of truck etc..can one find tires that are US made or at least not from...

after rear axil repair will be doing total fluid change out, grease job on my M35A2. TM indicates brake fluid with silicone should be used. Most stuff I find does not seem to indicate that it has silicone. Is this an issue? I don't know whats been put in the truck and suspect it was never been...

Hi, first time posting. First MV an M35a2 LDT465-1D with rear singles. Brought my deuce home yest and was feeling elated until inspected rear spring seats/tandem axil bracket. Left side spring seat and axil bracket trashed and wollerd out. Would appreciate greatly any advice on where to obtain...
