I am in the middle of rebuilding my Airpak as we speak. Here is an exploded view for you to print off. It has been very helpful to me as I do it.
I'm using this method of rebuild with the 5 ton kit and power piston.

I was looking at some of the seals that came out of the original airpak and found National part # 50197 stamped on the shaft seal (NN in the parts breakdown). This seal is readily available

Not yet. It is sitting in pieces all cleaned up and waiting for me to put on the new seals and assemble it. I have a 3 day weekend coming up and hope to get it done then.
I wanted to have the airpak done before I bench bleed and install the master cylinder. Oh..and I had new front brake hoses...
If you feel like it, would you post a video of #3 running and driving without music so we can hear what it sounds like and how it shifts?
Not at all complaining about the first video. It was well done!
I too would like to hear something from the people who know how to rebuild those and would like to learn how to do it myself here soon. Hopefully because of a "want to" and not for a "have to". Maybe we can find out if any of the rebuild equipment is available for sale.
As for the blackout...
Oh man...this is going to be fun to watch!:popcorn:
It is neat to see you guys working on this together. Not many people have an opportunity to do something like that.
I bought some of these from a local carburetor shop. I have one in my truck now and it is working well.

I suppose I should add this to the parts list. Forgot to do that a while back.
Looks like they changed the part number on us. I'll remove the bad number, do some searching and put up a good one when we find it.
Thank you for letting me know and helping me keep this up to date for all of us!!
If those are M135 wheels, don't grind them. I'd trade you some M211 wheels for those.
You'll know when you take them off. If they have the taper on both sides, they are for M211 or M35.
