    M35A3 TRANSMISSION Problem..

    Wasn't to long ago there were a bunch that auctioned off GL. Would think some would be for sale. Now at what price would be the question. Maybe check with Eastern, TNJMurray or White Owl. Maybe one of them scooped up a few.

    steering shaft

    The procedure for taking the box apart and reassembly is in TM 9-2320-361-34 section 12-3 page 12-6.

    What should a MEP-002a / MEP-003a be worth?

    I think you hit the nail on the head right there. I would like to pickup another 003a but with the current prices $1200+ it won't be anytime soon. I'm just thrifty (read cheap).

    Does anyone double-clutch?

    You do raise a very valid safety issue. Especially with the unknown mechanical status of items like detentes, shift rails and worn fork assemblies. Looks like a good time to put aside an old practice. Safety should be number 1.

    I hate Road Hogs

    Maybe a few choice hand gestures would have made him move. :-) You weren't driving a “smart” car were you.

    Does anyone double-clutch?

    I will concede that was the main reason that I never owned a personal vehicle with a manual, until the deuce. After spending all day doing that the last thing I wanted to see when I got in my pickup was a shifter.

    Now lets see your truck in the snow

    I didn't have any trouble at all. aired down the rear tires to 20 psi and the front to 30 psi (note to self, do this before the snow:rolleyes:) and hit the road. I don't have any weight in the back but a 1000 ~ 1500# would be a help if for nothing more than ride quality. Most of the roads have...

    Does anyone double-clutch?

    When I first started driving “Big” trucks we had 5-4 twin sticks (B63 Mack) and a more seasoned driver gave me a nice tip. When you start the truck in cold weather leave the aux shifter in neutral and the main box in second while you do you pretrip. This will let the 90W tranny oil warm a...

    deuce valve lash

    I need to do mine when the weather is better. I am going by the -34 TM .010 on the intake and .025 on the exhaust. I just need to find a source for v/c gaskets.

    When starting, yell "FIRE IN THE HOLE"

    Even with the streamer I still forget mine once in a while. Worse part is climbing the fence to retrieve it from the neighbors yard.
