    In tank fuel pump substitute for M35

    Repaired a few stock pumps. A good cleaning solves 80% of problems. The stock design has a LOT of play ( i assume for the variety of fuels used in less than ideal conditions ). Definitely looking into the Walbro. Cheers

    Overthinking things again - Grease - Wheel bearings

    My HUMBLE opinion... Do NOT mix grease....No bueno. MANY react with each other, causing compounds to precipitate out, or the grease to lose or develop undesirable properties. The products balance the amount a oil 'liberated' at different conditions. Too much free synthetic oil will not...

    M35A3 power and speeds mods?

    Dunno about power or speed, it IS a M35 after all. For casual and daily, I put a LOT of focus on brakes, fuel, and low-maintenance changes first: Wheel cylinders, running vents to air box ( eliminating highway draft tube ), cleaning / maintaining fuel system and injector pump. Made the truck...

    Questions, Seat, Antenna, Fuel Gauge, more.

    Welcome from Oregon sir. As for the seats, if you are open to the thought of NON- original equipment, I've seen people use aftermarket ( base model ) seats for the 1984-2000 Jeep Cherokee. Slim profile, more comfortable than the HMMWV. Big drawback, The ride height is not adjustable. Once set...

    Couldn't transfer my title from iron planet to my name in Maryland

    Since Vermont is no longer an option, perhaps title the vehicle in NH, then transfer to your state. The the VIN / serial # is an issue in itself, you can apply for a VIN in and title in NH, then transfer to your state. Cheers
