To keep the drum from freely spinning the drum lock knob on the driver side has to engaged. It has a pin that protrudes into one of many slots in the drum side flange. The brake holds the load when the clutch is depressed and cuts out the PTO power.

The front of the housing opposite where the pto shaft connects is this data plate. It does have a brake.

The brake is adjustable and may need adjusting. I've never adjusted one before but I've seen the data plate for it on the front of my winch...

Today I added 2 jerry can holders next to my hard-mounted ammo can. I arranged them so that they don't interfere with the tie-downs if I need to use them.

Economy is not a concern for me but fuel prices kinda are since it limits my fun. Funny that so many people are concerned about mileage that it's typically their second question when asking about my truck after they ask what it is or why I have it.

I run a turbo'd M813 with a winch and that would be my biased choice! They can be fairly snappy with the turbo and a manual tranny is just more fun.

Interesting fix! Will your engine suck in any rubber shavings?

Like 98G is saying, the error is a percentage so the higher your speed, the higher the error. I also converted from 11.00s to 16.00s on my M813 so i made this quick crossover reference as a short term fix till I get the speedo gear updated. Check out this thread for info on updating the...

I made a chart based on math and then drove by the sheriff's radar trailer and the speed readout matched what the math said.

A 2" drop in less then 10 miles is way excessive. With the overdrive effect of the 53s, the cruising mileage should be about 8-10 mpg according to others who have swapped to 53s. If the speedo cable gear box on the transfer case is still the factory ratio for 11.00-20s then you're actually...

The only one I've seen was an M818 show truck called "Double-Duece" that had bagged suspension and only on the rear

This. We need more of this. Thanks for replying back with your findings! More often, we never here what the cause was or what the cure was.

Someone has to be first to do it. Document it well and do a full write-up with lots of pics!

The closest thing I can remember would be @HanksDeuce that runs a 5.9 but is in the 2.5 ton section and online.

How well do the windows mate up with it?

How about a T3 liquid transporter from 1960? Top speed of 25 mph. Made for diesel. A deuce & a half couldn't really haul the extra weight but could certainly tow it and a max of two of these could be towed together. This may be an experimental version that i got to check out at a...

You bet and remember that approach because it can work on a lot of other parts

Here's how you find the answer: Download both halves of the M809 Technical Manual for parts that covers your M813A1 (TM 9-2320-260-24P-1 & -2) The index of the first half will direct you to the rear brakes & hubs section with an exploded view of the parts and a Bill Of Material. Copy the NSN...

For the lug nuts or for the studs that hold the two wheel halves together?
