M35A2-

What tires do you have on the Defender? They look like Michelin XL's?

Matt

Hi Matt.

Yes they are Michelin 7.50X16 XCL's. They are the correct tyre fitted to this vehicle. The series 3's use Good Year (hi miler)Xtra grips.

Welcome.

Hi my friend.

That's exactly what I thought when I registered. This is also my username for a forum in England that I'm a member of. So when I thought I would register on here (only just discovered it, and I've owned Military Vehicles for 17 years) I was thinking someone was bound to have it, but no. I couldn't believe it.

Here is my Toyota forum, to prove I've had it a while.

Andy, welcome aboard Sir, we're glad to have you here on this site. The UK certainly has some great MV events. I'm sure you're already aware of it but the M621 trucks from Norway are great trucks and are modified M35A2 trucks. All came with cab heaters, super single tires, and air lock differentials in all 3 positions. I know they are for sale in Norway as well. Of course I realize that they would probably shipped across the North Sea but maybe a consideration. Again, welcome!

I have found this link to the trucks for sale in Norway. I notice they have a LD435.1 engine. I take it these are NOT turbo varients?

You know, now I don't remember! I'm going to have to dig a bit. Heres a paste from a contact I made in Norway that had access to trucks for sale. If the email addy is still good, might be able to answer some questions.
