    Front axle brake shoes wear out faster than rear axle brake shoes?

    Assuming the rear wheels don't lock every time you step on the brakes... then all wheels will do (almost) identical number of revolutions during a deceleration from speed X down to speed Y. That, while the pressure applied to every single of all 12 brake shoes is exactly the same. Why should...

    Front axle brake shoes wear out faster than rear axle brake shoes?

    I still don't believe that the reason for that much faster wear would be (abnormal)weight distribution- or weight transfer. In this case, who knows if all three axles- or just the rear axle brakes were serviced at that time? Differences in brake lining material- and hardness play a big role...

    Front axle brake shoes wear out faster than rear axle brake shoes?

    Correct. According to the books, at least... Yes, M35, M35A1 and M35A2 came with Ø 1-3/8" WC's, all around. G.

    PLEASE Assist with parking brake

    It is a fairly common sized Grade-5 hex-head bolt: Ø1"x L=6", 14 TPI. Threaded portion is 2-1/2". You should be able to find it online. For the nut, it is only "special" because it was turned down to 3/8" in height. It really only serves as a counter-nut. ... Or call the usual parts-guys as...

    Intake/exhaust port CFM flow? Porting the heads? Tech babble.

    I have cams here, from every model engine (except the LDS465-2), starting with the early 427's... and I have yet to find a part number stamped or written anywhere - on any of them. So the only effective way to confirm if there are- or were- any differences would be by measuring. But who would...

    Intake/exhaust port CFM flow? Porting the heads? Tech babble.

    That is really THE question... If you go by that diagram you posted- then YES. But if you look up the different parts books (TM 9-2815-204-34P; TM 9-2815-210-34P, May'74 & TM 9-2815-210-34P, June'98 ), the camshaft is #11610283, for ALL model Multifuel engines. G.

    M923A2 Transfer case bearing, help needed

    You can do following: go to the parts manual -24P-1; find said bearing (figure 208, item #2); note the NSN and part number; Google it....; look for results like "parttarget" (here is the link to make it a bit easier for you); then if you are lucky it gives you all specs and dimensions...(yes...

    Intake/exhaust port CFM flow? Porting the heads? Tech babble.

    Interesting, the difference in "valve events" between those two models. How can that be if the camshafts and timing gears were identical for all of these engines? BTW, I see you have the -35 TM. Not in digital form, or....?? G.

    M1070(HET) Tractors What are second lives/uses????

    This is one M1070 which just started its "second life"-duty in private hands... doing exactly what it was meant to do: pulling the HET trailer! We finally unloaded our two M1000's early this morning, at 3:00AM, and I'm glad they let us do the whole job (since we really had such a "perfect tool"...

    M35a2 winch shear pin sizes

    Definitely not 1/4". Original size is Ø9/32" (= 7.1mm). Many winch shafts & yokes have been drilled to Ø5/16" (= 7.9mm) at the time of depot-rebuild. I have found some to even allow for a 8.0mm pin diameter. To improve shear strength a snug fit is always better than fitting too loose. G.
