    M35a1 Advice

    Excellent! I think the tank has a drain plug to flush. Pretty sure 465 fuel filter rack will fit. That being said...with a clean tank a modern spin on filter setup that filters to fewer microns would be better. I think Jeepsinker or rustystud built this one. Primary- Napa 3418, 1"-12...

    Wheel Bearings - Preload Question

    When doing the hubs on my '62, I found the tricky part was that the second nut would push the first nut in on the slop in the threads and tighten the bearings tighter than my initial adjustment, so some fiddly trial and error was necessary. Indicator is definitely the way to go for schooling...

    M35a1 Advice

    Yikes. Looks like someone bypassed your secondary filters. Off the the top of my head: In tank pump with fuse in housing on top. 4a? Slow blow glass fuse. 5-7psi Primary filter under alternator. Stubby filter long housing should have a pin and spring in rod to hold filter up against mount...

    Brake Lining Thickness

    Recently was in the brakes on my ‘70. Was told by a couple long time daily driver deuce owners that deuce shoes wear very slowly. Neither had ever had to replace theirs. I think I had 1/8” to the rivers and they said that should last forever.

    M35a1 Advice

    I am a huge A1 nerd and am dying to see pics. I'll be back after work to give you some tips. In the meantime, a search for M35A1 will turn up some info. Somewhat rare indeed, though the differences are slight and 99% of parts will interchange.

    Wheel Bearings - Preload Question

    I live on the Mexican border. I once had a 5th wheel RV trailer come in with extremely loose wheel bearings that couldn’t be tightened. Mismatched bearings and cones. Guy had just had them installed....in Alaska. That proved to me that loose is better than tight...but like menaces you want...

    Did have a Deuce down, Southern Arizona

    I am almost close, a few hours away, but no tow bar. Jack's gov surplus is the only place I can think of that way that might be of help.

    Got another Deuce! ('70)

    Guys, I gotta do head gaskets. Blown between cylinders. Full sets are getting rare and $. I already have an exh gasket and gasket material to make intake, etc. Should I spring for the whole set or just the HG themselves? Maybe if the sets are getting rare I should get it for just in case... I'm...

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    I was sitting at an intersection once and a Lexus SUV corkscrewed through the air like old 70s car chase movies right in front of me. A Mercedes had pulled out in front of him and his passenger side ramped right up it. Lexus took it like a champ and spun round like a top on it's roof. A deuce...
