My m35a2C is a pain to start in the cold. I mean even in the high 30's (which isn't that cold) it is a pain and I have to pull the throttle way out and liberally use the flame heater to get it to start.
On the other hand my M342a2, in the same weather, I just reach in turn the key (someone...
There are NOS ones on ebay. I bought one and it looks great.

Notified of revisons on 10/7. I kicked back an email within an hour of receiving. Last week I resent my revisions as status still said needing revisions.
Checked today, still no update. Called to see what's up, guy had me re-send my revisons again, and said will forward on to...
I should be going to Ft. McCoy this week to pick up a few things if you need me to take a quick look at anything for you.
May be up again the following week if my EUC gets cleared.
Soda won't cut rust.
I had an ACE soda blaster, I had it hooked to a 23cfm compressor, which was WAY too small.
You will also need a good dryer.
I think I used about 300lbs to do the bedsides of a chevy shortbox.
I seem to remember mine doing something similar. When I replaced the trans and clutch, the throwout bearing was completely toast.
I think you can pull the inspection cover on the trans and should be able to see the bearing up there.

It was amazing how quickly it left the ground, the announcer said it had just received new engines that greatly reduced the amount of runway needed...
I think it was you in a post I saw commenting about the rust in the cylinders. That is why I decided to replace them all, I had planned to do the hoses anyway.
I'm going to replace all of teh wheel cylinders and hoses on my XM818. I have found the front wheel hoses, and rear frame to axle hoses, but can't find the front frame to axle hose.
The TM gives in a different PN than the rears, at 7413492. Will the rear one work?
Also, if anyone happens...
I tried posting in the classifieds, but no luck.
I need a battery tray that will hold the plastic battery box. It bolts to the two legs that come down and mounts the door and step.
If anyone has one, or knows where I can get one please let me know.
Oh yeah, here is a link to my ad...
I think he's going to press out the studs to bolt the wheels together, then place the plate behind the inner wheel half and press new studs in to retain the new plate. Then it would work as normal.
These look real nice BTW.
This is what I'm planning. I just sold my house in MI (and will be a WI resident soon), but still have "Camp" up there. I've been told that if a vehicle stays mostly in another state it should be registered there.
