    Yet another M35A3 Recovery Thread

    My meds just allow me to kill time. :) On mine the tires looked OK (except for one) but when I tire gauged them only 1 had 50, another 30 and the others didn't move the tire gauge at all. Def. plan on a gladhand hose. BTW mine had a hose in the toolbox, now I got two!

    Yet another M35A3 Recovery Thread

    UPDATE: I picked up the truck Thursday and have a handle on most of the issues already. I put a new alternator in yesterday and swapped out most of the gauges. I have a punch list of things to do and it is getting shorter daily, so I am very mellow about the recovery. Adam (Ferro) says Tim...

    Thanks Adam. Sorry I was not able to meet you. I was mystified about the incident. Cary followed me and said he thought the rear tires were close to coming off the rim when I took the hard corner at the gate to get off the post. Went about 300 feet past the gate and aired up. You would...

    Thanks guys. All in good time. :) I have been out cleaning up the new toy and such. Oh, and making a list of all the stuff I need to buy for it. Yeah, after Daniel at Richmond was so easy to work with, I guess I was spoiled a little.

    Tim tried to stop me from driving by insisting I could not move the truck without insurance. I pulled out my binder. Probably he is easier to work with if you agree to have it towed in the first place, but I look at it a little differently. Title has passed when I sign for it and he releases...

    Yeah, tim is not my best friend. Oh, a footnote. On arrival at home got the hood up and the engine oil was on the full mark, just where it was this morning. Overall I was a happy camper. Oh, when I went thru Charlotte NC I came to the place where my M38A1 broke down some 30 years ago. It...

    Yet another M35A3 Recovery Thread

    Safety check completed, lights working (not much else electrical was) and away we went. The fluids were fine except for the tranny was 6 qts low. Noticed at least one of the tires was square, gave me a real fun ride at speed. Out to interstate 77 and northbound! That is when I noticed the...

    Yet another M35A3 Recovery Thread

    The tan truck was used to jump and it looks great! I have no idea if it is up for sale or not. Anyway, Tim jumped out of the truck and said "Well, your alternator is gone" I stated I needed just a little time to air up the tires and do a safety check. "No! Absolutely no work will be...

    Met Tim at Eastover, SC at 8AM this morning. Not without its little issues, but the good news is it is outside in the drive right now. Wife likes it better than the A2 models! Go figure. Time frame was very good! Submission of EUC Pending 07/01/2010...
