    Winch Questions....

    Simple, you must read the TMs.... all of them!:p See your answer here: TM9-1819AC, fig. 45. Best, G.

    M35 GAS Motor wiring

    Ah.. now I know what you mean: yes every harness connector can be opened and you can easily add (solder) a wire to any of the unused pins. Same with the light switch connector: just open it and add the missing wire at "J". Lubricate the rubber parts with dielectric grease before applying too...

    M35 GAS Motor wiring

    Half a page?? You have that wiring schematic (PDF-file) downloaded to your PC, don't you? "Opening" as in disassembling? I understand that you want to do the splicing inside the connector, under the boot, right behind the metal pin or receptacle, crimped to the wire? It is possible yes...

    M35 GAS Motor wiring

    Wire #22 runs from L.SW-"C" to TS.SW-"D", only! Then #160 connects L.SW "J" with TS.SW "G". Flasher input is #167 and connects "F" with "B" on the flasher unit. G.

    Combat Rim O-Ring Sizes

    I'm not so sure about the accuracy of that list... The O-Rings for regular HEMTT 2pc wheels at least are not Ø 3/16"! More like Ø 5/16". Maybe its a typo? G.

    LDS Hydraulic Pump Powering a Hmmwv Hydraulic Winch

    ... which makes me want to study that TM and see how it's actually designed to work: power steering- AND power brake booster - AND the winch; all on the same pump!? G.

    LDS Hydraulic Pump Powering a Hmmwv Hydraulic Winch

    Ty, I think you are getting close now... Normally, with a PS-system - and not steering- the pump's full capacity can flow almost unrestricted through the control valve body and back to the reservoir. On the other hand, when steering hard all the way against the knuckle stops the valves are...

    1952 M35 Gasser repair and build

    No problem, you can use a Multifuel tank. See the differences, here... It just needs a custom-made cover, where the fuel pick-up & vent goes. Or use an old MF in-tank pump, disabled and modified to work just as a fuel pick-up. Yes. G.

    1952 M35 Gasser repair and build

    Not the starter, it's the generator that is on the driver's side. The A2-harness would work. But then you may have to change some of the connectors to the Douglas-style. Not a big deal, though. Sorry, I just re-read post #1: he said he got a new gasser harness, included! G.

    I beat the fuel fitting... And a thread for all the other mods to my deuce

    I guess, not necessary... ;) Look again: those rubber bumpers are placed almost too high up on the tailgate, to even hit the end panel at the lowest edge? G.

    Longer wheel studs

    Post a few pics of them and I will tell you what the backspacing is, +/- 1/4". FMTV-wheels aren't expensive, and re-centering them is not such a big deal... So I would say, better to get new wheels made, with adequate backspacing, than adding spacers - anytime! G.

    M1070 HET + M1000 Trailer: Las Vegas, NV

    Couldn't agree more...! Do you happen to know if that transmission was just replaced with a stock one, or eventually changed out to something stronger? Thanks for sharing your HET-experience! G.

    Conical Washers from the Pitman Arm

    Wait a minute: why Ø 5/8"? All the studs I have seen so far are 9/16" in diameter. I just checked the NAPA-site: you probably need the TWD AX1014. What left me wondering is their specified height of only 3/8". From what I recall ours are taller than that. Let me see if I can find any loose, to...

    Conical Washers from the Pitman Arm

    Did you see this thread - before trying...? FWIW, they are also called "Drive Flange Wedge". Apparently Dorman makes, or has them. If you wanted to order online, here is one possible source... G.

    Fuel pressure relief valve

    I think that PRV at the top of the secondary is mainly a safety backup, in case the regulator on the transfer pump got stuck closed, to protect the system Also to avoid possible pressure build-up between that pump and the FDC, or- if by-passed- directly the HH, after engine shutdown. Certainly...

    M1008 Brush guard measurements?

    You are lucky: I just found one M1008-brushguard that I knew I had laying around somewhere, for years. You will have all measurements put in a drawing to scale, tomorrow. Plan on buying flatstock: 1-5/8" x 1/4", about 7.10m; 1-1/8" x 1/4", about 2.10m; 2-1/4" x 1/4", about 0.80m. Also 1...
