    What vendor did I buy bulk canvas from ?

    Chief_919 (Tim) maybe...? He has the right stuff, by the roll.

    Done and glad to help. (Moderators are supposed to do such things... eventually:))

    unable to edit posts

    Nothing has changed to my knowledge but if you are referring to your "Challenge Coins"-thread in the "Conversations" forum, that is one of the few sub-forums where members cannot edit their posts. There you said you "will add some, later". If this was your issue then just make a new post with...

    M998 backfires through intake at times

    Maybe, but I've never seen a broken valve spring on these engines... But I have had sticking exhaust valves.

    FYI: Wheels and tires

    There are three holes, spaced at 120° which are a tad under Ø15.0mm. All other 21 holes are Ø16.0mm. Now... the protruding, knurled area on the studs measures 14.1mm, which leaves us with almost 1 mm of radial play, between both halves. While that doesn't sound to be much, it still is enough to...

    FYI: Wheels and tires

    And what if I told you that centering the holes on the studs is no guarantee at all, for lowest radial runout of the inner wheel section? Easy to confirm, if you mounted just the wheel - no tire, on a hub and spun the whole thing. I bet you'll be surprised... G.

    A tire question.

    Really?? According to mil. specs, the 9.00-20's are load range D (=8 ply) and the 11.00-20's are LR F (12 ply). Maybe there were exceptions of the rule, but every 9.00-20 I have had in my hands was just that, 8 ply rating.

    A tire question.

    9.00-20/8PR NDCC is what the M44-series trucks came with, up to the mid 80's. Those can be found everywhere so I don't think that's what you are looking for?

    M35 torque rod inserts

    Yeah... isn't that lovely? (I mean the round ends, of course...!);-)

    M35 torque rod inserts

    Nice! I like those "round" ends; they seem to be the trick, really...! At least the whole thing wouldn't come apart - even when/if the rubber separated from the outer sleeve. Which is the most common failure, for the normal, straight ends. Oh, and about those pics "lost"...

    Tire slightly tilted out - M923A1

    ... But he said tire is "tilted out at the top", not the bottom. I suppose that the "normal" camber for these front axles is +1.0 deg (+/- 0.5). Can anyone confirm this?

    Help Ident Engine

    You may compare yours with the pics shown in this thread, which is a "C"- model. You have a "D" turbo. And no, those had no waste gate. G.

    Direction of M35 winch PTO?

    No, the PTO is like a gearbox in itself and its selector (shift)shaft has 5 positions: two forward speeds (L & H); one reverse- and two neutral positions, in between. As I said before, in forward-H or -L the output shaft will turn CW; in reverse it turns CCW and in Neutral it doesn't turn; even...

    Direction of M35 winch PTO?

    I doubt that there is enough room; your pump would probably hit the clutch housing... (see picture) See it here... CW for forward H & L; CCW for reverse. (when looking at the front side of PTO) That is always - as long as the clutch was engaged - and no matter if the transmission was in any...
