Over all these years I have done a lot of detail-measurements (and 2D-drawings) myself, so you may not have to start completely from zero. PM me if interested. G.

We have a very interesting TM in our library: VEHICLE RECOVERY OPERATIONS See what the military uses in cases like this one... G.

Put in 1st gear, with clutch fully engaged and engine pulling @ say 600 rpm, it should be 2 knocks per second but only if... the large sliding gear (45T) had one (or more) teeth missing. Or perhaps something embedded in between two teeth? But you said you checked already and didn't see anything...

When starting from a full stop with engine below idle speed, does it knock say 6-7 times per second, or just 1-2 /sec.? Did you get to inspect this one, the 1st counter-gear? It only has 13 teeth (from factory at least...) G.

Patent on what? Not this, or?? http://www.blastgateco.com/Cast-Aluminum-Full-Blast-Gates.php G.

M35 steering box seal numbers, corrected data! Thanks Rusty for double-checking...: Your info is correct! (My bad, for some reason I had those two inverted, in my files :oops:). Below is now the correct version/ numbers, extracted from the TIMKEN-NATIONAL catalog:

Welcome to Steelsoldiers! I see you are pretty new here... Might want to consider a few points: 1) If you really want to be helped then better be more specific about what model trailer you want to convert. 2) "U" is a vocal which we may use to describe the type of bolt; joint; etc. "U" is not...

No, it just says #323138 "provides a compatible interchange". It probably is more popular but it's a single-lip style and only 1/4" width. And made of Nitrile (S) instead of Polyacrylate (N) The #330480N is a much better option IMHO; unless someone wanted to use two of the thin ones, with the...

Ohh well, yes and no... I forgot that at some point I had swapped IP tops with another (HMMWV)motor going for a 12V application. The body of the IP in the picture still is the original DB2829-4521. I don't think so. G.

Yes, it was running when I pulled it out of a... nice and complete '77 M886 !! (I bought the whole thing for less than what that motor costs, here.) All I know is that the Uruguayan military had done the swap, and the only thing they had on hand at that time was M1008's and M1009's. Never did...

Just so the original question doesn't go unanswered... From the ORD 9 SNL G-742 parts manual; Fig. 14-1, item BB: Part No. 500044, SEAL, oil, type ML, 1-3/8 x 1.832 x 7/16. Now, 7/16" would be extra-wide, for that size of seal at least. Best if you could get an OEM repair kit, which would...

It takes a very common size, so why not order online? Just google: "brake bleeder screw 7/16-20 x 1-1/4". (7/16-20 x 1-1/2" will also work) For example NAPA # UP 11410, here... G. .

Yes, look in this area, stamped on the block... G.

Wow! I didn't realize the #49927 alternative would hurt that much...! G.

For the FMTV wheels with the steel band type beadlock I use common wheel bearing grease, where the O-ring goes and around the studs. And I'm certain that the stuff I found when disassembling them (probably for the first time in their whole service life) was also plain, thick grease. When...

I fully agree. Specs are: 5.000" Shaft; 6.001" Bore; 0.50" Width, fully encased, nitrile (or better fluoroelastomer). Why take the risk to buy outdated NOS seals if you can have the same, "factory fresh" from Timken (#415725) or SKF (#49929 or better #49927) G.

Its very easy to confirm: 22.2" overall diameter = MPT 24" overall diameter = all other super-single wheels To Toby: once again, those wheels in post #21 do not fit MPT tires! G.

It is not that difficult to make them... see this post. G.

Hey John, where are the promised pics from "Bella"?? (Do I have to travel half around the world again, to hopefully get us some...? :smile:) G.

Yes, number BR 8-6 is what you really need. See it here... BTW: I have found they have excellent customer service there... G.
