And maybe I'll add a couple hole saws as a way to get the old rubber out :wink:

How do you get the upper off??? No room to swing a hammer!!

OK boys... let's take a chill pill... no fighting or the band packs up and goes home... I'm just happy the beasts are here, I got 'em unloaded and the whole crew still has their fingers and toes, everybody went home safe and happy and no MVs were hurt in the making of this film. Happy New...

I meant to get the stud out of the axle bracket... I have a 12 ton press to press out the rubber end....

Thanks!!! Sounds like a plan! I need to get it out of the middle of the Museum's back lot this weekend... Note to self: pack in toolkit saturday- chain, come-a-long, ratchet straps, wood chisel, saws-all, long extension cords and hammer(s).... Having seen what happens with the 2 lowers failed...

Is there a steel shoulder at the rubber end of the taper so you could use a tool like a ball joint tool?

Other than seeing that I used a properly licensed, insured trucker who's rig is set up for 27,000#s (more than the weight of 2 deuces) I really don't know what other care or due dilligence I could have exercised. Not being a trucking expert, those seemed like the correct things to verify. The...

Both have dead batts, the one with the promising 'RUNS' on the hood has no brakes and dry rotted front tires...the other has the bad torque rod ends... having them delivered was a GREAT deal for me!!!

Mike said he was just under his GVWR... am VERY glad I had him haul them... and for about what my fuel $$ would have been to go get them myself...

I am seeing rod ends $32 to $40 and complete rods about $125 to $150

I can't blieve that no one responded to this one... As I now have torque rod ends to replace, would love to know the answers!!! :?:

My Deuces made it home today... (thanks to Mike with Kinetic Frieght Services http://kineticfreight.com/ , great service and rates, and yes, you can get 2 deuces on a 44' drop deck)... one had both lower torque rod rubbers torn out, so it took some rigging with chains and a ratchet binder to get...

Move south of the artic circle and you won't need one!!! :lol:

I wrote the guy and asked how he managed to do 70 in a M35... he said he did it at 2400 rpm by running 50% diesel and 50% 97 octane gas.... What a load!!! rofl And to answer the original question... convoy speed for me is 45... it's a long story, but I have seen repeated proof with mine own...

There seems to be a relative flood of M35s on Ebay these days...

A billion years ago when I was a pup I thought I was a welder.. learned how to gas and stick weld from my friends... then the company I worked for sent me to their welding school to learn TIG... the instructor asked if I knew how to weld... I said 'oh hell yes'... he set up two 4" pieces of...

In Texas, they will give you credit for tax paid out of state. If you paid more than what you would owe in Texas (6.25%) in another state, they don't refund the difference. Unfortunately, GL charges 8.25% for texas sales tax, which is wrong on a motor vehicle but correct for other things. Don't...

Try Uship.com The more flexible you are on dates for pick-up and delivery the cheaper it will be... also, if it runs, consider meeting the truck in Seattle to reduce the empty miles they will have to run after they drop it off...

My NA produces some smoke, especially when it has not fully warmed up yet, but nothing like that. I usually can see a slight shadow from it on the hood if the sun is the right angle above and behind me, but I can only see it in the rear view if I have it floored trying to accelerate or go over a...

Thanks Ken... but I have my new turbo w/w coming soon.. so watch out!! It will be off to the drag track!! LOL!! (My NA Deuce will do 12 in the 1/4 mile.... minutes that is) Ken's turbo is like being in a 'vette compared to my NA multifuel...
