You checked the rubber hose attached to the in tank pump? TM has a great troubleshoot decision tree for fuel system.

They are not "stock" but people have used the type of switch used for the air shift transfer case switch for air actuated lockers (ARB lockers). Makes for a clean, stock look. It also makes me want to duplicate that exact setup before I shy away for cost reasons, still drooling. If the truck...

Thanks, rusty. I found some reference here: http://thesensorconnection.com/content/thermocouple-wire-color-reference-chart-type-k-j-and-n-usa-and-international-iec-5843 However, at least to me it seems that if a probe is a certain type, e.g. a "K" probe, it should work with other "K" calibrated...

My NAPA carries CuNiFer brake lines. Even I can make double flares that work when using this material :-) I learned about the stuff on this site as well. Really cool when you can gently bend the brake lines by hand and they do not kink.

No info regarding gaskets/shims but look here: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?161320-Misc-M35A2-Winch-Parts

I have a Westach EGT gauge; worked fine for years. Then it stopped showing EGT/showed them sporadically. I put in a new K-probe. Now it does show temps, but ridiculously low (400 F) on uphill grades where it should get to 1000 or slightly above. Are there different types of K-probes and how...

Sad day...Queen Lola got tucked away in her winter quarters. I miss her already. Here is a pic from earlier today: Deuce in its natural habitat "Where Is Waldo? Edition":

The fun fact about these engine cans is that they weigh in at about the same weight as the engine itself (a little less). The bottom half of the can (which is what you would use) is almost 500 lbs. The top is bigger and therefore even heavier.

Man, that is one speedy Deuce! I bet you can't even push the windshield open at that kind of speed! :-)

That engine is a heavy piece of kit. If it is complete with bell housing and flywheel, around the 1500 lbs mark. I know, because I have one sitting in my garage. I use a 2t cherry picker to lift it and move it, if I have to. It is sitting there because I overhauled an LDS and this is now a...

I have only now come across this thread! Thanks for taking the time to do the write-ups and post the gorgeous pictures. Deuce****ography at its finest! The rollover of the MB1017......I vividly remember the time one of our members on this site was killed in a rollover of an M35A3 that he had...

It looks so pleasant to work on with all the sheet metal out of the way!!

Also check pinion bearings. Rode in a truck with one bad one and the vibrations were noticeable.

Rusty, it is about half 40W and half 30W non detergent oil. Waterloo called for 40W but there was only 2 qts available. I used to run 80/90 gear oil in it. 30W sure is thin.

My rpm at 60 mph are 2400. Engine is governed to 2500, but that is already scary speed in an M35A2.

Thanks guys! Took her out for a test drive....clutch slippped a little in 5th in the beginning (that LDS has a lot of power!) when accelerating hard, but after a while it seemed to hold just fine. Maybe I give her another brake clean spray. No new leaks. I am happy.

Opened inspection cover and washed the bell housing out with 5 cans of brake cleaner. 2x4 to keep clutch depressed, engine idling to get the clutch and flywheel as best as I could. Oily mess cleaned up to clear runoff. I also cleaned my hands through the gloves and soaked half of my face, so I...

Murphy and the Rear Main Seal - Murphy messed up :-) Had replaced the rear main and modified the carrier while I had everything apart. Did "fingernail check" on crank for groove and new seal dis not sit in same spot as old one anyway. Ran fine for over 50 hours now. Today....highway run for an...

Sorry, was going to read what you wrote but stared at food instead.

No. Front seal is NSN 5330000813416, rear is NSN 5330009180595. Can be had from all major MV parts suppliers. If my list is correct, the National part # 3945 is the civy equivalent (hopefully someone can verify).
