    HH removal issues

    I am lining up everything using the jack shaft, but my arms are not long enough to turn it and pull the head....ie no soldier 2. I believe I can see the pin, but not real sure, it’s a deep color of red in there. I will try moving it to the valley of the gear and wiggle some more. Based on...

    HH removal issues

    I have read all of the threads on removing the HH but can’t for the life of me get it to come out. The red mark is positioned right under the arrow but it won’t lift out. Does anyone have any tricks or advice? Also of great importance. Where can I get a new pin that goes on the fuel shut...

    I am waiting on a new filter kit so I decided to start working on the doors that won’t close on one side and won’t open on the other. It’s been 8 hours and one side is working now except the outside handle is stripped out. But the inside works and the window rolls up and down smoothly...

    The transfer case looks normal. One shaft in and two out. One to the front and one to the back. As far as the secondary fuel filter I believe it should work fine. There is a line coming from under the IP to the full filter. One from the fuel filter to the HH and another line from the T...

    So how does the range selection work?? It has four. I can’t read the first one but the other three say ??? Winch, Neutral, Earth Auger.

    I was doing a quick pressure wash of the the truck yesterday and noticed that on the plate under the range selector it says “earth auger”. Any ideas what this was for?

    Great video!! I am currently cleNing the sludge out of the fuel tank and lift pump. The primary fuel filter was wrong. It looks like the guy that owned it put a secondary fuel filter in and threw away the spring. I am hoping a duel filter setup from a 465 will fit the 427. Right now the...

    Here are some more pictures. Can anybody explain the secondary fuel filter set up? I don’t think that is original. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    This truck is not going to impress visually. It looks like an old farm truck. New Mexico Teche used it to haul things and put a Homemade flat bed on it and a role cage inside the cab. My friends think I was nuts for buying it, but it looks fun to me. I’ve heard there is an upgraded head...

    Thank you for the information. The engine plate tag says Continental 427 on it I will have to figure out how to post some pictures. I’m not that good at this technology stuff. That’s why a 55 year old truck suits me.The truck needs a lot of work and the bed is not original. It has a homemade...

    First time posting. I accidentally put this under modifications earlier but anyway here goes again. I just bought a 1963 Studabaker M35 a1 that needs a lot of work. I seems like all of the parts are for a2s. Are the parts interchangeable? Right now the truck only starts with a gas soaked rag...
