    leaky winch gearbox

    I see what you see as a crack, Ron... but there is a large HOLE in the center of that bearing, isn't it...!? Seems the bearing just popped open its whole center portion...? Pics below, for comparison... G.

    leaky winch gearbox

    Weird - looks like there is a stream coming right out of the center of that bearing...!? Can you take some close-ups; maybe try to clean it a bit to see if there is an opening? It takes a M-2016, closed end needle bearing there; and never leaks like that. G.

    Bobbing m35a3 keeping 6x6

    WELD (done correctly!) is the answer... :-) G.

    Bobbing m35a3 keeping 6x6

    Very true! That's what they do - even being mild steel (which they are in fact)... because -like most solids- they still have a certain elasticity... and because in "normal" service that elastic limit is never reached. Also true! ... in excess of its yield strength, yes. BTW, the same will...

    what m35 parts fit a m35a2?

    Most has been answered, already. Just for clarification, regarding body parts: the hood; doors; WS-frame; top and other accessories are the same for all; not so the grille; fenders; engine side panels; headlight mounts; dash panel, instrument panel and much more... This thread at least, has...

    label on fuel filter to use diesel only?

    OK, I know. Was just a joke; found it funny when the OP said fuel fillters - never seen any decals on those...:) G.

    What model 5 ton is this? Oshkosh?

    yes.... and still looking for info what model/year that M1078 exactly is, in the OP's pic. Apparently it's an early version; NOT the M1078A1 at least... G.

    Clutch Problems

    Yes, a Multifuel will run backwards - and oil pressure will remain ZERO (!!!!!!) ... besides other problems!!!!! Not saying it wasn't engine oil in your clutch, but..... keep in mind that there is no seal for the transmission input shaft, just a (RH) coarse-threaded portion inside the bearing...

    Remove/Install rear main seal NHC250 M809

    Incredibly complicated, compared to all other engines used by the military! Must have been the enemy who designed this! G.

    New tires!

    IF.... those in fact are 365/80R20 and not 365/85R20, then your tires are MPT, same size and type as the A3's 14.5R20. And you will find MPT written on the sidewall, next to the size and elsewhere. The good news: that is the best all-around type and size tire you can put on a Deuce...! The...

    What model 5 ton is this? Oshkosh?

    My mistake: I automatically said Oshkosh but then realized that it was S & S who made the FMTV trucks, until 2010 or so. I did notice their logo on the grille in the OP's pic and yes, it is different from what the latest Oshkosh's show. What leaves me wondering is that unique grille: not what...

    M35A3 Parking Brake adjustment

    You already have Gary's excellent explanation above.... better than any Operator's-TM!:) Regarding proper parking brake maintenance; yes, TM 9-2320-361-20; chapter 8, section I; pages 575 to 591. That is about all a guy needs to know! That manual can also be found in our own library, under...
