I was wondering if an injection pump off of a 5 ton LDS465-1A would work on a LD465 engine. Would the fuel be turned up to much, the governed speed tag says 700/2600 so it looks like a direct bolt on replacement to me. Is there some reason this pump wouldn't work? Thanks for any info, James

Has anyone had trouble with the check valve in the injection pump sticking? My truck has sit a while and this check valve keeps sticking on me, I can take an air hose and blow in the fuel line and it frees up, then it starts and runs perfect until the next time I try to start. Thanks for any...

Only reason the rear end is red is because that's the paint I had close by after installing the Detroit locker. I agree it needs to be green. The Wheels are from Longs Wheel and Rim in Florida and they are 11" wide with 8.5" of backspacing. I love the Rims but the price was a little steep.

I actually shortened the bows a few inches to make them even with the top of the cab, I liked that look better. I used Gillespie Paint that I bought from Rapco in Texas a few years ago. The paint itself was 383 Green, Earth Brown and Special Black if my memory is right.

This is a few pics of my 1974 m35a2 that I bobbed.

What kind of spare tire holders have you guys made for the 395 tires. I just bought a set of Wheels from Longs and got 395s on the way just wondering what I could do with the spare tire instead of just laying it in the bed.

That truck is ready for the crusher my opinion!

I used white plastic tube from tractor supply so that I could see if it is oil is being pumped thru the line. I didn't know that there was 2 check valves in it, I thought it just passed straight thru. I guess i will take it apart and inspect/clean these valves. Thanks for the info

Oh ok, thanks for the info. The PTO I bought was from and old gasser water truck so that explains a lot. Im going to remove it and just install a plug back in its place. Im having trouble with my PTO pulling oil from the transfer case and I think it might be drawing air around the speedo looking...

What kind of gauge hooks to the speedo gear that is located on the rear pto on a m35? I assume a rpm gauge but i've never seen one? I also did a search and tried to find the cable that would connect the two but couldn't find out nothing there either. Has anyone seen this gauge and cable?

Has anyone put the tires/rims off of a m105a3 trailer on a boobbed deuce? I think this would be a good combo.Anyone have any pictures of one?

The camera batteries went dead today before I could get some more pictures of this truck.The truck cab was in very bad shape and it was missing the bed but if anyone is needing this pto pm me and i will give you the location of it or if you live far away i could get a price for you.This dude is...

I found this old 5 ton truck today in a junkyard in southwest virginia and thought it was kind rare since I had never seen one before.It seems to be a 1945 model and it does have a rear facing pto on it.Has anyone seen one of these before?

Truck runs like a top,just wanted to thank everyone for the infomation and the help that they have provided me while troubleshooting this problem!Now its time to find a set of front springs to convert it to a bobbed duece!

Got the HH off and guess what the center clip had came off of the bottom of it.Now its time to put everything back together and see what happens.
