    M1097A1 Steering Gear Box

    For the price, give it a try. You may have to get an OTC puller if the cheaper one fails

    Newbie Help

    Check "vehicles for sale" on this site. Cheap one and an expensive one. I would buy a good runner and drive it home. Believe me , dating the big girls on this site can be expensive. If you are a good mechanic, results may vary. Best of luck to you.

    I agree If the seller wants that price, it's up to the seller to show that it runs. A couple of batteries is worth demonstrating runability.

    Winter weather.

    A sometimes forgotten cold start for diesels is a hair dryer or heat gun in the air filter housing for 15 minutes or so. Old farm tractors often require it.

    torque rod bushings

    I think the junky guy is confused When money is short, you use what is cheap or free. However you have to go at it, you do good work according to me

    New to me M35A3, suggestions needed

    I was curious as to how the truck is working out. With your luck, you should buy a lottery ticket. This does not discount the hard work you have put into it.

    M35A2 on "Diesel Creek" YouTube

    I like the guy's videos. He gets old equipment working and saves it from the scrap. I thought he did well on the M35. Just wish he had more information on the truck first.

    Geared hub drain plug removal advice

    Someone in the recent past has dealt with this, extensively. Might want to do a search of past posts.

    M970 series of unfortunate events

    Take a look at Northern Tool. We use 2 of their high pressure pumps on VFD trucks. You could go back with plastic since you are using water in the tanker.

    Injection pump

    As far as I recall, the civilian pump has a rubber "shock absorber" in the drive inside. They are known to disintegrate and clog up the insides. Military spec pump has an all steel drive train. Someone else probably has better advice.

    Don't forget to check water distribution tube behind the water pump.

    Reuse head gasket if not run yet

    I've heard about that. You can use Copper Cote gasket dressing also.

    M35A2W/W Master cylinder replacement

    The appropriate swear words scare the offending parts into submission. Anointing them with knuckle blood helps.

    M939 Wiring /Lighting issue

    Might want to insure that personnel understand how to use the 3 lever switch. Check in the dash 10 manual you can download I think.

    Registering ex military vehicle in Louisiana

    That is most interesting. In the 1970's, the Texas DMV used the frame number on my M37b. That was on a 1962 truck.
