    Ha it's an optical illusion.We run a firewood processor that is a ford f700 parked along side the m35a2. I am setting it up to bring log length firewood home from local wood lots. I had been doing it with single axle dump trucks but needed a more sturdy solution.

    M35a2 dump conversion

    I have a 1974 AM General m35a2 cargo truck that I would like to convert to a PTO driven 12' cargo dump. I have a 1975 Ford f700 with 9 foot dump bed. I was hoping to swap the sub frame from the F-700 and add it in between the m35 frame and cargo bed. The Problem is the 3 foot difference in...

    Rear mount logloader on m35a2

    Gringeltaube how much does the loader on the back of the duece weight best guess? Is the weight displaced well enough so as not to make the front end feel light when driving. I am trying for a street legal truck was not sure if the one in your photo was on road or off.

    Rear mount logloader on m35a2

    The old international I have the loader mounted on now has it behind the cab.The photo is above in the thread. That configuration limits your reach and unless you want to pass logs over the truck causes you to work mostly from the sides. If I rear mount I can back up to my work and have full...

    Rear mount logloader on m35a2

    I am wondering if you think a 5000# Barko 80 log loader could be rear mounted on an m35a2. I would mount it in the space between the rear most dual and end of frame. The purpose is as a crane carrier not a haul truck. Thanks in advance
