Tactical-Life.com – M35 2.5 Ton Truck Rebuilt For Bug-Out

Friday, April 18th, 2014

This week’s post from Tactical-Life.com profiles Big Bug Out Trucks, a North Carolina-based company which rebuilds old M35 military surplus trucks for off-roading & disaster preparation.

Their method is to bob the M35, which means shortening it by removing an axle, removing 3 feet from the chassis frame, and lengthening the drive shaft, among other modifications, which increases the fuel efficiency and top speed of the truck. Additionally, Big Bug Trucks can even add an electronic shock device to the vehicle which will deliver 1,000,000 volts of low-amperage, non-lethal electricity to the outer shell of the vehicle.
