    It is for the very early flame heater systems with electric solenoids to control fuel.

    what is this and why is it dripping fuel on turbo

    If you want, you can get a new replacement from White Owl. DO NOT use a replacement with a hexagonal body.

    5 Ton turbo on a 2 1/2 Ton

    I put a 4LE-354 wastegate turbo on my LDT; it is easily do-able. It ended up that the turbo was no good. However, after doing a little investigating, it probably wouldn't have done much anyway as Ken on SS says that they have the same ultimate boost anyway. The wastegate turbo uses a...

    Has anyone tried to fit this pump in?

    You don't HAVE to splice the harnesses together. The stock/ original wire fite pretty tight into the parker pump. It may be fine as-is. I used the stock fuse. What is the normal life of these pumps? (ie. how many for a lifetime supply)

    All this for a freeze plug?!

    Depends on whether or not you stretched them into the plastic region.

    transfer case airlines

    I used copper lines and flare fittings. I did not use the oem rubber airline between the transfer case and the hard line; seemed pointless as the transfer case doesn't move much and there is plenty movement in the hard line.

    Aftermarket Carb Question

    Maybe perfectly fine for you:mrgreen:... If stuck with a carb, I want the best one I can get. Even if I were to rebuilt the original, there are DESIGN differences that you are not considering. For example, the economaster carbs have a number of improvements developed in search of better...

    Aftermarket Carb Question

    In short, they work better. We installed one of Stovebolt's carbs on my brother's M37:better driveability and starts. I put a newer Holley 2300 economaster on my M35; significantly better performance. You have to give credit to the fact that carbs did get better with time.

    Drive axel gear ratio

    I am not saying that the transmission gear set isn't the easiest and most cost effective solution. It is what I would do. However, I don't believe that the shift up in each gear is necessarily a bad thing. First gear is plenty low even in high range. Depends on the tires you are running and...

    Drive axel gear ratio

    You've got the low transfer case range for this.

    Servo Brake Conversion

    Somone on SS hinted at a much simpler method of reducing pedal pressure but I don't remember the details.

    Servo Brake Conversion

    I know that the servo is SUPPOSED to reduce pedal effort, it just wasn't obvious to me.

    Servo Brake Conversion

    My 1947 chevy pickup had the huck non-servo brakes and my 1948 was converted to the bendix servo brakes and I really couldn't tell a difference. Might be a lot of work to find out the same on an M35.

    I can provide power steering CHEAP & RELIABLE

    I was quoted $1200. But I may have misunderstood; the salesman was very hard to understand. The cost and difficulty of working with Garrison led me to the HF54. With two systems already outlined in GREAT detail on SS (HF54 and the Saginaw), I really can't understand why there is still...
