    Front Axle not engaging?

    You are wrong. It is not "locked in" in any gear. Read section 86 in TM9-1819B which describes how the single sprag and dual sprag work.

    Front Axle not engaging?

    It is in 6x6 in ALL gears. Read up on the operation of this transfer case or jack up a front tire and try it out. The transmission linkage only switches from the forward sprag to the reverse sprag. The forward sprag is engaged by default. This has been beat to death in many other threads...

    Rear main and clutch replacement - lessons learned

    I believe that the TM recommended this when going from the old style to new style pressure plate (3 to 4 finger or vice versus). There is a thread out there somewhere describiing this.

    m135 underpowered

    I know of one 302 powered car which ran this fast and it blew the crank in the process. It takes a LOT of money to go this fast since you have to re-engineer the engine; you aren't exactly starting with a race engine. Nobody has been able to defeat poor engineering without spending lots of...

    m135 underpowered

    This is a 1930s technology engine. 2HP / cubic inch is very difficult and expensive. Anybody who says "it can be done with relative ease" is lying to you.

    Dana Tab Style CP115X - ?Problems?

    Yes, I found the exact same thing a few years ago. I bought a NOS u-joint off of ebay which fit.

    Replacing my starter with a gear reduction style

    Is it a 50mt? Same HP as the 39mt. You can get a 50mt with a prelube pump.

    Rod Bolts

    I called HyCapacity which is an ag parts distributor to ask about their "HC40-1091706" rod bolt. It is the correct rod bolt for the Hercules 478. They purchase it directly from Hercules. HyCapacity was helpful and tried to contact Hercules regarding the specs but couldn't get a response from...

    Then agan, that rod/ cap looks intact; maybe a different failure mode. Beat me to it....

    However, it appears failures still occur with the 12 pt bolts: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?66437-Major-Meltdown!!-(/page8&highlight=mortum

    Rod Bolts

    Pretty easy to find out. I sent an email asking if they are 12 pt or 6 pt.

    More engine problems (Documentation of testing fuel system, failure of Hyd Head)

    IMO, burning junk fuel is like diggin' through the dumpster for a half-eaten, day-old donut.

    multifuel parts interchange

    Both have TD cast into the block. The early block is squared off at the passenger side rear, the newer one is rounded. I have wondered if this is one of the differences between a C and D.

    stuck oil drain plug?

    My wife once called me while changing oil and told me that she couldn't get the plug out; it just spun in place. Turns out that she got confused about which direction loosens the plug. She couldn't get it loose with a wrench; tried a ratched, worked up to a breaker bar, and finally got it to...

    multifuel parts interchange

    There are actually two different TD blocks. There APPEARS to be an early TD and a late TD.
