Did some more research. Here is the information that leads me to believe a WW2 Chevy case will work. I have the Banjo axles. Anyone know what the WW2 case is they are referring to?
"That transfer looks like that from the G749 GMC duece of the 1950's. It is a sprag type case, single speed...
Did some more research. it looks like I can use a WW2 Chevy transfer case. I'm not sure which case tho. I have Chevy 2.5ton Banjo axles and I would assume the Banjo transfer case. The link below under C. says it can be done. Does anyone know what case that is or where I can get one...
Great write-up, I have two questions.
1. If this was a direct swap, sprag to air-shift, what is the model number of the air-shift case that went in and the transfer case that went out?
2. It looked like there were no modifications to the mounts or drive shafts, what its the rotation of the...
[Crossing Fingers] Is there any transfer-case that would be a direct swap for mounting position that would be more updated or have a high-low? If not where can I get a replacement case if it turns out the front output it shot? Is there a TM that outlines a rebuild?
The lower rod is connected to a lever in the cab. Before I knew what the lever did I thought it was for high and low speed. I was defiantly curious as to why I could not find a neutral. The truck drove forward in both settings before I installed the drive shaft. I will have to go back and try...
It looks like there is a drum brake assembly for the parking brake on those models. I don't have a drum brake assembly on my transfer-case. Its odd that it doesn't list any model specification anywhere on the site for the transfer cases. Just says 2 speed. Thanks for the link tho. The axles are...
That would be great! I'd love to get the truck on the road and running. Do you know the model number by any chance? I'm not sure what to ask for if I called a surplus yard. Thanks again!
Hi guys. I have a bit of a problem. I got a custom truck for my birthday. Its a 74 C-65 w/ stock engine 366 Tall-deck, stock trans CL280V but was converted to 4x4. After researching the axles are the Rockwell front loader type on the early deuce. Here is my problem. The transfer case is most...
RE: truck
Turns out the trucks are located at a different site. I talked to the site manager and he said to come on out and take a look but that I wouldn't be able to start any of them because I'm not military personnel. 10hrs round trip, cant see if it starts... I may just wait to find a good...
I talked to the site manager for Starke. He said that all the trucks are sitting as it, I understand that but then to told me that I would not be able to try and start the truck. Reason being 1. I'm not stationed there and 2. that the trucks are drained of all their fluids ect. I would have...
Thanks for all the replies! Yeah I've looked on the net and I really like this site. Recovery or other FL members that know about this stuff, would anyone be interested in looking at a few trucks with me or for me? Going back on the not knowing my pucker from a hole in the ground when it comes...
Well I remember buying my first car. It was to much money for not enough car. Thanks for the support. Is there someone in that are that can take a look at the truck. I dont know much about MV's in FL and was wondering if it could be driven home to Sarasota. If yall have the time PM me with a...
Hi everyone. Great site!! I keep on burning the midnight oil well into the morning reading, learning and most of all wishing I had an M35A2. I'm pretty new to these trucks and don't exactly have all the money in the world to play with, just a college and part time paycheck to work with. I've...
Hi Guys. I've been looking around for quite a while. Great site. I have had an account with GL for a while but never purchased anything before. I have looked over the 2.5ton 5ton debate and decided I'd like to buy a 2.5 Duce and go from there. Learning and all. Is there anyone that can go and...
