The M35 was designed as a tactical vehicle, not a highway vehicle. Top speed should be limited to 50 mph. Those NDCC 9.00-20's are not rated for speeds greater than that. The current tires don't look in the best of shape. As old as these M35's are, all the crossmembers need to be checked for cracks and loose rivets.
@@dw7094 tactical vehicle? ??OK go with that. This truck was a depot rebuild it has 350 hours on it I’m sure they checked the rivets and crossmembers then. (On the recommendation of someone in the comment section)Also if you watch the videos it was stated multiple times that this vehicle is used to move trailers around the yard. So if you’ll excuse me I have to go fuel up my tactical chainsaw and tactical wood splitter and get some work done.
im about to be doing the exact same swap but with a different bellhousing. The housing im using bolts directly to the spicer 3053a to and flat adapter on the back of the chevy engine. Pulled my engine from a running air brake truck that had a spicer 3153a behind it. So all i need is a bushing to press into the pilot bearing, bolt everything up, make 2 rear mounts and attach the chevy front crossmember to the M35A2 for the front mount. Ill be moving my radiator back to use the oem fanshrowd and make room for a hidden winch in front of that.
@@ceetwarrior for what I use it for it is doing great, when I do use it it is to move a trailer around the yard so I can cut the grass under it or I use it for an air compressor
