thanks guys. Worked on big rigs for 14 years been wanting to move from my 2.5 ton deuce to 5 ton for a long time. did check over the paperwork from 1991 overhaul and fluid changes. picking up in about a week. Owner even hooked up his 40 ft gooseneck and loaded it down. Didnt even know the...

Yes sir thanks I know the 5th wheel was removed for a gooseneck hitch.

Yes sir already did test drive. Will post pics later this week. Time i added up the $$$ to do power steering to a deuce and upgrade tires/rims it just didn't add up to. Plus already has a winch to

Sold my deuce and half Sunday and going 5 ton. Juice seems to make more sense. 1986 truck 5 ton m939, cummins, power steering, Allison transmission. New 49 inch tires. Clean title and drive 10k. Anything I should double check before purchasing? Has a winch to. Has paper work saying in 1991...

Ill try to get a pic of the front. The title and vin match was just making sure befire i purchased it.

Has air assistant power steering. Guess with the cat 3116, auto transmission its a A4. But a 1978 on title???

cat 3116 i mean

Auto. Transmission. 2.5 ton, 6x6. Car 3116 Looks just like my m35a2. Has a tires psi air system at the steering wheel

Looking at a 2.5 ton deuce but not sure about the year matching the engine. Guy selling has a 1978 deuce 2.5 ton but its got a cat 3116 In it. I thought those were 1994 and up years? government auction title says 1978.

So the truck is bobbed with 395/85r20 on it now. I was actually thinking going with 9.00-20 with duals in the rear. But I was trying to upgrade the brakes due to the single circuit issue-if u lose one u lose all brakes

i was hoping there was a different route without having to add power steering to get the better brakes. thanks for the info and help time you addup the brake up upgrade and power steering id be better off putting the $$ towards a 5 ton which is the way im thinking just perfer the multifuel parts...

Het Dirt can you pm i have a few questions on this old post

we have a m35 bobbed with a single circuit brake setup. Can we delete the air over hydraulics and go pull hydraulic?

IS THERE A 9.00-20 YOU CAN USE WITHOUT A TUBE ON SOILD RIM? AND WHAT TIRES ARE EVEN OUT THERE FOR 15" RIMS THAT CAN HOLD THE WEIGHT OF A M35 ON THE STREET AND OFFROAD

Well thanks very much cattlerepairman that is help full for sure. Im the middle of doing this build i didn't think im cut my frame and go with a single rear. I know back on the day the G506 military trucks did this setup stock from the factory and didn't think it would look bad. Thanks again
