Most of these trucks were coded out around 20 years ago when replaced with S&S LMTV's. A lot of the A3's with the CAT engines and Allison transmissions were given to the Forestry Service and the rest went to Foreign Military Sales. The maintenance expenditure limit (MEL), on the multifuels was reduced to 0%, so how they were turned in is the way they were sold.
maybe you or someone could school me on the correct reason then. I cannot find any other info to as why it would be. But thanks for letting me know, I do hate spreading bad rumors.
is tha a spare battery? because with a 24v system yu can use a 24v to 12v buck converter for a 12v for load load devices, chargers, lights, light motors etc etc
@justamanandhisdeuceandahal5399 that makes sense since I remember starting on top, and the next 2 gears being on the bottom, next to each other. Still planning on getting a deuce now that I'm retired, but decent A1s or A2s are getting hard to find and I really don't want to spend the money on a refurbished one because they can get pricey.

there are a few options but as far as I know...all the m35a2's did not have power steering
your info for why fifth gear is up is incorrect

@@cdoublejj yes that is exactly what I do
I always got stuck driving this thing. Nobody cared to drive or didn’t know how. Got me into restricted places for packages
Are the 5 speeds a newer upgrade? I for some reason only remember 4 when I drove one in the 90s.
You probably never used 1st since it is like a granny low. I only use 1st if I am starting up a hill

What was the reasoning for bypassing the fuel density compensator?
Mine was causing a fuel delivery issue. After some research everyone bypassed it. Mine definitely woke up.
I appreciate your channel. Great info keep up the content 👍
Do they have power steering
The 5 tons and possibly the newer trucks had air assisted steering. Some 5 tons had the hydraulic power steering. Can anyone add their 2 cents?
I. Need a truck but I am in Liberia how do I get it here ?
that would be a very expensive shipping cost for sure
nice deuce.
That’s what she said
Cool
