jwaller, when you drill the ball, be careful when the drill does thru the ball. It pushes against the screw and turns it in. Then it's kind of like starting over 'cause you don't know where you started.

Went back and pulled the washer off of the other trailer tonite. Measures 3.0 od. 2.040 id. .125 th. Made of bronze. Looked at McMaster, found 2 that will do nicely. The id is .040 smaller than needed, but that can be fixed easily. The page won't link, but here's some p/n's 7814K42 or 5906K528...

Hey Clinto, Nope, it't the brass or bronze one that goes on the bottom side so when the unit is unhooked, there is a bearing surface for the gear to pivot on. Thanks for the offer.

I swapped the crank up gear off of the GL trailer to the free one yesterday. I had already installed the armstrong gear and come back home and realized that the thrust wasn't on the crank up one. Does anyone have a thrust washer they wanna sell?

Be careful. Cylinder kits aren't cheap! Also remember that the Small Cam followers are a weak link. When you jack up fuel pressure, it loads the injector pushtube and follower alot more. Pins like to break. Worse case scenerio, pin breaks, pushes out the side of the follower, sticks a valve...

WOO HOO! good to see it rolling. Where are you gonna get rubber for it?

You can drill the frame rails, just don't drill, cut or weld on the flanges. Side = OK, top or bottom = not OK.

Gary, gotta be careful, I think BLM passed a law that only scatter guns can be fired. No solid projectile arms. I'll do some checking.

Ditto on Aces reply. A synthetic oil isn't good for a new engine. What if you develop a leak when you are out and about? Shouldn't mix the two.

There are a few ways to check for vacuum leaks. One is just listen. There should be a whistling sound. Get a can of brake cleaner..make sure it's flammable..and spray around the carb base and intake manifold. If there is a leak there, the idle will go up by itself. BE CAREFUL with the last...

There are also a few more guys from the SCMVCC that want to go. The event coordinator will announce the trip this morning.

Mine too, What caused it?

I'll wait for you guys. It's better if we stay together. Besides, i'm getting some convoy signs, so we need to use them so they don't go to waste.

I'm a desert color guy, but, I have to agree, the 3 color woodland looks better on a CUCV than all tan :roll: . I say keep it like it is.

RE: scrap Scrap is kind of high, If there are no usable parts, scrap it and try to get your $ back.

Here's my Saturn wipers

MERDC..sorta?

oldshep, Don't believe there is a torque on the inner nut. The outer gets torqued. The TMs are in the Tech Manual section. You might want to think about downloading them, they are full of very useful info. Best part is they are free! If you do the bearings wrong, you'll end up buying new...

Jon, even if you don't get it back together, you'll have to bring the Ford out, i'll bring the starting fluid!

Why did they change it to the POO POO thing on the M35? Looks lots easier.
