    I saw them listed on one of the vendor sites a while back but they quickly disappeared.

    New Guy From Georgia

    Another welcome from Louisiana. At least you are over with all the cool people in GA. I'm stuck over here with Welldigger and Ke5eua...:confused:

    Transfer Case out put shaft play

    Sometimes the rebuilders didn't care. Many times they only replaced the components that absolutely had to be replaced and nothing else. Also don't confuse a rebuild tag with a "repaired" tag and a fresh paint job.

    1st M35A2 coming home in a week

    I bought my first MV last year around this time. The green disease is in fact an incredibly infectious disease.

    Starting issues M35-A2

    That's crazy. I had heard that the 130 was supposed to serve until almost 2060. Maybe it was 2025. Either way I didn't think they were retiring them yet. To test individual hh outputs you just have to remove the lines and spin the motor over to see which ones spray fuel and which ones don't.

    If there is no hole in the block your chances are pretty good it'll run.

    1st M35A2 coming home in a week

    Some do. Even the low priced trucks are climbing in price rapidly though. I've seen roughly an average $2000 increase across the board on deuces in just the past year.

    m35a2 rebuild from the dead

    If it is that close I would advise towing it to your location where all of your tools and equipment are readily available. As I believe was already stated, make sure you have another person nearby with a block of wood to smother the engine in case of a runaway. You will more than likely have to...

    You guys air drop it on a pallet or what? I've never seen a deuce air dropped.

    Better to have it come home in a week than in a box.

    Pull those injector lines and blow through them to check for obstructions. Also look in the inlet of the injector and see if there are any obstructions there (rust, gunk). Worth a look anyway.

    If you fill in the pool and pour another slab there you could put in a two post lift and park three or more jeeps there. Every serious jeeper needs a good two post lift.

    m35a2 rebuild from the dead

    Where is cutoff? I could probably help you if I knew where you were. Edit: I found you on the map. That is way down there! I sure hope it didn't get flooded during Katrina and sat there since then. If it got in salt water and then sat that long it may not be salvageable.

    Our museum M-113

    Oooh yeah.... Gotta have the track tools. You could probably strong arm the parts and just make due with some heavy tools, but I'm not sure. I am not an experienced track mechanic.

    If the bell housing does match up, then you have to start looking at converter stall speed.
