I just finished my M116A2 and here are some useful NAPA numbers:
Axle Seal 22532
Bearing/Race BR25580/BR25520
Flexible Brake Hose 5784
Slave cylinder overhaul kit 264
Master cylinder overhaul kit 137
Napa also carries the entire slave cylinder but its more expensive than etrailers.com...
Mine's held on with a hex nut. There's a square shaft coming out of the valve body that the lever sets on. Not surprising there are variable designs. Yes, I'll have to just dive in and see why my shaft is so loose (the nut is tight).

Ya, I've been looking for one for awhile too - same thing - shaft is loose. I agree, the price is high (your link). Is the one for the 800 series the same as the 900 series??

There is only one pair of axle sensors on the 900 series... making your conversion that much easier. Check out the ABS section of the TMs. Chapter 4 in the -23 series. Also check out the ABS WMO instructions. That will get you heading in the right direction. I recommend you test your ABS...
The battery relocation kit does not call for insulating the wires near the exhaust. The directions that came with the kit have the wires going back much further (rearward) that what you have done, resulting in adequate distance from wire to pipe. I've checked mine a couple of times and the...
Oh and note I'll have to fabricate a latch for all the genny doors. They obviously won't open with the cover on the bows. I'm also trying to dig up some genny cord to build an umbilical to plug in the pole drop. As always, a project in progress.

And here are a few more.
If you want a specific photograph, let me know and I'll post it. If you do part out any, let me know and I'll be a definite customer for the stuff that is shippable.

Here are some latest pics with the genny mounted on wheels. I'll post pics of the trailer rebuild under that forum so look for it there (later).

I've had things like that spray welded and machined back. Those sorts of operations are usually only in metropolitan areas as they pretty specialized. Good luck.
