The M35 started as a 1949 REO Motor Car Company design for a 2ยฝ-ton 6x6 off-road truck. This original 6-wheel M34 version with a single wheel tandem was quickly superseded by the 10-wheel M35 design with a dual tandem. The basic M35 cargo truck is rated to carry 5,000 pounds (2,300 kg) off-road or 10,000 pounds (4,500 kg) on roads.

I wouldn't bet on it. My last Ram dually was rated higher than that.

The M35 is rated at a load capacity of 5,000 lbs. It can transport ammunition, supplies, and troops and could often carry loads that are double the recommended weight.

There's always a limit to every truck.


Yup,and you got the SRW version(M-34) which also has a limited off road weight of 5K and why they call it the Deuce and a half..They quickly went to the M-35 DRW..

The military even went through this SRW vs DRW fiasco....

Stock cab height is 111", so you can do the math how much height you have left for a cab over and vents. Stock gearing limits you to 58 mph, but there is an overdrive kit.

I don't think Torklift makes steps long enough to reach the door.
Love the concept thought.

WowSpecta, that is pure awesomeness!
Reminds me of another rig I saw recently.
Smallish Class C on a 2nd gen Dodge dually chassis with a tag axle. Looked like a 10 wheeler but only 8 tires.
It looked stout, of course based on rvnet math though, he was a couple tons over his gvwr....
