    Air Leak Woes

    If that is true, it's just crazy. Should he remove the troop seats if he doesn't get a passenger endorsement?

    Reviving a multifuel

    I see the engine is on the trailer with it!

    M35a2 motor swap

    Why ask what to use of you already made up your mind? Any reputable dealer has them.

    M35a2 motor swap

    Gaskets required for the deep water fording kit. If you plan on keeping it high and dry, use sillycone.

    can a f250 pull a stuck m35 deuce and a half out?

    http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Box_crib Cribbing or box cribbing might just be the best idea man has had since the wheel. Goes like this. Fire, wheel, cribbing, beer and pizza. Wings were much later in evolution.

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    Ordered a clutch kit and flywheel for the project truck. The ranger torque splitter is on the garage floor and the 465/205 in the bed off the M1008. The real fun starts when all the parts are here.

    Dual Alternators with AC Compressor (not m1010)

    Memory is not so good these days but I will try to figure it out!

    M35a2 motor swap

    Wow, the one man band thing really sets a tone here as well. My 12 yr old has been the crane operator (on the M1 0h eight) since he was 6. I'm too old to be climbing up and down on that thing. Hopefully my CUCV Wrecker project will take care of that. That PP may be salvagable. Kinda worth a...

    Dual Alternators with AC Compressor (not m1010)

    Sure it can be done. There is an A/C place in AZ or TX that sells the mounts. Sits low on the passenger side and you need to add a pulley to the crank.

    Replacing the rear main seal and many questions

    I've seen some really thin nylon shim things used to protect the seal from the sharp lip on the block. Not sure if one exists premade for the 6.2.

    NP 205 in a 1009

    From the mid 80s the NP205 had a round pattern. If you can find one of these you can likely bolt it right onto your existing adapter. You will be sacrificing the 2.61 low range of the 208. No big deal if you never wheel the truck.

    M35a2 motor swap

    I've done these both ways and frankly, I find it easier to do them seperate. Lifting the oil pan over the front crossmember (unless you have the removable one) and getting the tranny tower under the firewall is a bit of a pain. I also find it worth my effort to remove the left fender.

    vacuum regulator valve ?

    I can think of nothing except the transmission that requires vacuum. Go direct.

    Front Brake problem any help would be welcome

    If it is a single circuit brake system, it would seem odd that only one axle would drag as opposed to all since they are all tee'd together. I would be really suspicious of that front frame to axle brake hose.

    what is the gear ratio for the speedo gear reduction box?

    The correct part number is readily available in TM 9-2320-289-34P.

    Mating a Spicer 3053 to SBC

    They only bolt to an SAE bellhousing.

    Mating a Spicer 3053 to SBC

    That I'm not sure of. I would think that an automotive machine shop would have the resources to find the proper specs to weight it.

    Mating a Spicer 3053 to SBC

    6.2 is externally balanced. The 350, 366, 427 medium duty engines are internally balanced. If the flywheels do bolt on you can likely have heavy weights added to achieve balance.
