Well I guess I'll let the secret out of the bag -- Me and a friend of mine picked this up today in Columbia at Ft. Jackson..

its a "Duece and a half" 2.5 ton military truck -- 1967 Kaiser Jeep m35a2 6x6. Has a 6 cylinder turbo diesel built in 91, the engine is CLEAN..motor as 900 miles on it. Tires still have the **** on them its perfect! Little cab rust but that can be fixed..ordered new springs for it to lift it bout 4" so I can fit the 53s that were in the other thread..enough of the talk here is the beast!







this is how we got it off Ft. Jackson -- you couldnt drive it off we had to tow...


13,000 lbs. winch!


cant beat it tho for the price -- 1900 bucks, divorced tcase, diesel, rockwells built geared already..

what we are going to do is bob it..aka remove rear axle, make it a normal 4x4 on the 53s, flat black the whole thing probably fix rust add horns, air lines for quick disconnect...

somethign like this

 

This is going to be awesome. Is it possible to make it street legal?

 

oh its street legal now -- we drove it home about 140 miles at 55 MPH (top speed for it lol) took us bout 3.5 hours.. we just couldnt drive it off base..

 

sweet, now that should be a fun project!!

 

i am soo jealous!! ive wanted a deuce for years now! i love the sound of those old turbo diesel M35's

 

Very cool man! Deuces are so much fun.

Be sure to add new seats, or something. The passenger seat in those things is harsh! I spent a week wheeling in one of those things a couple years ago (passenger) and had a blast.

 

sucker was roooaring at 50 was crazy ear plugs are a must but think we are going to reroute the exhaust stack to behind the cab and lil taller so its not so close but i know what you mean..

 

That is awesome

What are the specs on the diesel engine. If it is what I think it maybe I could get you parts for it

 

900 miles? Those engines are rated in hours, so its probably 900 hours. Because its a 91 i can garrentee it has more than 900 miles on it lol. I want to get one so0o0o bad the Kaiser whistler turbo diesels are sick! plus its 6x6!

 

That is so awesome dude. I have always wanted one.

 

pimpin there is one of those for sale on pirate4x4

 

I allways wanted a duce. Have a m37 tho.

You got a nice truck

 

i think its a Hercules block -- 465 -- mutlifuel turbo diesel

 

it has both on the gauges..its 900 miles and 1500 hours..but the guy said the hours arnt right but the miles are close..

 

hmm lol ok. If i had the room and places to drive it id buy one. like if i owned a big piece of land... BUT i dont lol

 

I freakin LOVE bobbed deuces... I'm jealous

 

dude that is badass...

 

yep, they have both. thats pretty low miles. whats the date of the last overhaul?

 

91 i think thats the motor and rockwells look stock but the tires still have the **** on it so i dunno i wanna run a backround check on it to find out more info

 

yeah, it would be neat to know the history. i see some desert tan on parts of it. i wonder if its been in the sand box. where there any unit markings or anything on it?

 

That is just awesome!!

Do you need a special license to drive that thing?

 

state issued one -- nothing fancy..

 

I officially hate you. Nice Rig and awesome deal!

 

I've wanted one of those for awhile.

 

where do u plan on wheeling that thing? you could do a whole lot of grocery getting!
