I have a '68 M35A2 with a D-turbo. When running the truck noticed oil splatter on the passenger side engine compartment. There is oil leaking out of the back of the turbo (between turbo and firewall). Why is there oil leaking out of the back of the turbo?

I'm rebuilding my steering box. It's a Ross TA box. The worm gear is in decent shape as are the races and bearings. The sector shaft is showing wear. I also believe the sector shaft bushings need to be replaced (have also posted for parts in classifieds). Question is this, if the sector...
Need help. I have read thru most, if not all, of the threads on the in-tank pump, however none cover this specific question. I have removed the pump from the tank and cleaned it up. The metal braided wire goes up from the pump, up into and thru the bottom of the cover plate and attaches to the...
Currently restoring '68 M35a2 with a soft top. Have removed about 4 layers of paint, primer and rust from the outer windshield frame, which really isn't all that bad considering. My question is this, the frame appears to be several pieces put together, however they are all welded together and...
While disassembling and stripping for paint the heavy steel L brackets that bolt to the frame and support/hold the fuel tank and tool box, I noticed the mating surfaces of the brackets were lined with what appears to be a thin webbing strip. I'm guessing this was used to prevent vibration and...
I used the search feature but found nothing related to this. I'm doing a complete frame off restoration on a '68 M35A2. Removed the air tanks to inspect, blast and paint. There are chunks of what I thought was rust inside the tank. Shook some out and it actually looks like some type of...

One of my cargo bows recently broke in half. I can't seem to find anywhere to get just 5 bows to replace the old one's in my area and don't have a steam box to steam my own, so I came up with this cheap and easy fix using the below steps:
1) Draw a rectangle 75" long by 5" high on a flat...
