These are simple drum brakes. The only thing that's different to say a typical '60s pickup truck is the way the booster works. G.

If you are referring to the T-Case PTO (P-136-C) it is built to transmit 100% of engine power, in any selected gear. G.

Yes. G.

Miltruckman, here... G.

Yes, CCW - looking rear to front of engine. Why so? Spinning "the wrong way" wouldn't be any different than for example coasting (in 5th and clutch depressed) then releasing the clutch. A sound transmission will stay in gear, either way. G.

It won't grow any more... We don't need this same discussion for the third time.

Apology accepted. You only got a "Warning", this time. Remember, before placing a for-sale ad in the classifieds you will need to upgrade to "premium membership". (It's explained here...) G.

Next time try "brakes locked up", not breaks... Here: many good threads to read that will lead you "straight to the hard of the issue"... (BTW: I have edited your thread title.) G.

OK, you couldn't see your pics posted because that post in particular was "on moderation" - which is now fixed... (Thanks to Warthog!) Pics came out fine and clearly indicate that this is in fact a new- or "fresh" rebuilt transmission. Everything seems to be brand spanking new in there! Still...

I can assure you this: even the best- or the worst- possible lubricant will not cure the OP's main problem, that is preventing 5th from slipping out of gear. I say, at least one part in there is worn or faulty and must have been overlooked at the time of rebuild - if this really is such a...

Hi and Welcome to Steelsoldiers! 1) Hard to shift into 2nd from a complete stop: This is quite normal; you are not the only one with that issue. Read this thread and see what others suggested. 2) Slipping out of 5th: Not that common for these transmissions; not at least if all parts involved...

... but then you were talking about tires in all three posts!? Correct. Except for the S&S 2-1/2" ton truck (4x4 FMTV) which would be what, the latest model Deuce? The 43"-diameter, wide based 14.5R20 (later 365/80R20) was the most logical option to replace the skinny 11.00R20 radials - which...

So what about post #29??? Besides that, A2 and A3's share exactly the same axles... And there is a (good)reason the military adopted these MPT tires to put on the M35A3... G.

Definitely not! I tried to measure one as good as I could. Here are some of the dimensions - most probably a standard size & shape for injection lines? G.

First, there is no outer seal on the fronts. 2nd, I see rust on the outer bearing race? 3rd, lots of dirt on the lower outside of the steering knuckle, which would indicate a ripped boot and water getting inside and doing its thing?? Maybe the spindle nuts were not tightened correctly. But if...

Almost right.... Just the other way around: it is a 1:0.187 ratio for 9.00-20s and 1:0.200 for 11.00-20s. G.

That should be a "Steward Warner" logo... and yes, its .187, which is the correct (reduction)ratio to run 9.00-20 sized tires. Do you still think this is not the standard adapter, found on 99% of all Deuces?:smile: G.

Why not, what is different? Clean it and see if you can find 0.187:1 stamped on the housing. That is the correct one for a Deuce with 9.00-20 tires. The one on the right is the tachometer adapter. G.

Well, beadlock-(inserts) and beadlock-(wheels) are different things, but I think the OP's question clearly was about the HMMWV's stock wheel width - 8.25 or 9.75 inches. The rubber beadlock/runflat insert itself is only 6-3/4" wide. G.

I have never seen any HMMWV-wheels other than 16.5"x 8.25". Here is a little drawing I made, showing all dimensions... G.
