    M35 vs M135 axles for 4x4 project

    If it's still there, the easiest way to identify which style front axle you've found is by the tag. If the tag says Timken, then it's an older undesirable model with either the Bendix- or Rezepa-type shaft. If the tag says Rockwell, then it's got Spicer-type shafts. This is according to jp...

    Custom oil pan on LDT-465

    Ill check to see how much i lose, then that might be required. But if I expand the area notched for the front axle, and just cut off the lowmost portion of the small sump, I should be about the same as original.

    2.5ton bobed rear suspension help

    I would move the shackle and spring hangers down. If you lower the front hanger 4" (gives 2" of lift) then lower the rear hanger 4" (2" more of lift) then flip the rear shackle (4" more of lift) You will get 8" of lift, no spring changes then you can remove those nasty perches. For more info...

    Whats left of an 1966 kaiser M35A2

    I agree, hideous, but it really is worse in person... I wanted 56 cab, drop the rear axle, pickup bed, bigger tires..... Wife says, 56 cab, custom flatbed, keep it a 6x6 Buddy suggested the 56 stepside bed, with really stretched fenders to give it that usa6x6 bed type of look.

    Whats left of an 1966 kaiser M35A2

    Heres one thing i was thinking, since im not much of a ford guy... Do the cab swap, then bob, and run a long bed, step side (era correct and widened, to match the width of duals)
