    Clutch Adjustment Help

    Hey there, So I've read other post on this issue and none seems to have the same issue that I am. I'll try to keep it kind of short. I recently put a new clutch on my deuce. The new pressure plate has 3 fingers instead of 4. Long story short, I got it all put back together and started the...

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    Finally got the transmission bolted back up to the truck after the clutch install. Shes been sitting for too long, a couple of months now, haven't had the time to get down and work on her very much with work... But today I'm hoping to adjust the clutch, since there is alot of free play in the...

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    I also think my front left is also starting to go as well. I need to look at it closer to make sure.... If your going to get parts I'd go with C & C Equipment, I ordered the new clutch kit from them and they shipped it out same day. It got to my house in MN in 2 days. Good luck with the...

    M35A2 Flywheel Weight

    Awesome thanks. I already have the trani pulled and the pressure plate and the clutch disc are also off. I need to get the flywheel resurfaced after the clutch fried (see my other thread for more info). I planned to mark it with a sharpie or something. Once I get the weight I'll be sure to look...

    M35A2 Flywheel Weight

    I was doing the research but I still couldn't find it. Does anybody know the weight of the flywheel on the M35A2? I need to pull mine off to get it resurfaced before I install the new clutch. I was reading the TMs and there saying I need to pull the radiator off and a few other pieces to pull...

    Clutch Replacement

    It's not to bad. I say have at least 1 other person help you. Even better to have 2. Also I really recommend an engine hoist to (if you have one). The trani isn't too heavy, maybe 300 pounds. But you start by unbolting the floor in the cab, just the middle section, and I ran the engine hoist...

    Clutch Replacement

    Hey, So a couple of weeks ago my clutch went out on the truck. It didnt burn out, but rather the bolts holding the pressure plate onto the flywheel backed themselves out. Which caused the truck to work harder and burned out the clutch. So I ordered a brand new kit from C & C equipment (thanks...

    The Project Truck

    Thanks a lot. I spent most of the day today, dropping the trani because the truck wasn't putting the power down. Turns out the clutch is cooked, really glazed over, and the pressure plate is bend to **** too....it was only held on by 1 bolt.......the rest were at the bottom of the bell...

    4th Gear Issue?

    Well guys, I found out what is wrong with the truck. Your correct with it being the clutch, it's glazed over really bad. Also the pressure plate was hanging on by 1 bolt yes only 1.......I'm surprised it didn't rip itself appart. It goes to show how tough these trucks are... I'll put some...

    The Project Truck

    Normally on these trucks the mushroom is mounted directly onto the air cleaner, I added the 90 degree bend so in the winter snow and ice won't get into the filter, or if it rains hard water won't get in either. Plus it looks really good once it's painted :)

    The Project Truck

    So I've had the truck for a couple of months now and I putting up photos as I work on it. So far I've added a 90 degree bend for the mushroom. Sanded and primed the fenders for painting. Sanded all of the old paint off the wheels, they were all mismatched colors ----painted black ---Soon to...
