    OK, I'll check out the data plates then.

    The only ones I heard that had "Lockers" where used by the Marines.

    Scepter Jerry Can Gravity Feed Adapters

    That's why you need to add the right side fuel tank. Dual tanks are very nice in a CUCV !

    m35a2 over charging !

    The M35A2 alternator only uses 3 wires. One is ground, one is power out and the last is 24 volt in from the Master switch to energize everything.

    NP205 T-Case found!

    Now that is a rare beast. A SM465 with a 32 spline output shaft. Most all 4X4's that used the SM465 had a 10 spline output shaft that went into the NP205 transfer-case.

    I can crawl under them and see if the data plates are still there.

    Fuel Leak Injecter Pump Area - M35A2

    OK, I've said this before and I'll say it again now. Diesel fuel and galvanized tanks are a NO ! NO ! The first two documents are federal requirements for diesel tanks. The last page is from the Galvanizing Industry itself. In it they say the same thing I've said but that in larger tanks (1000...

    Top hat bearing cap torque after ARB install? (bearing preload tool idea too!)

    The torque spec could have been a misprint, but considering the Chevy CUCV 5/8" front "U" bolts are torqued to 150 ft Ibs. maybe not.

    Spicer 3053A guts in 3052 housing

    I don't see why not. The case is the same as is the main shaft and countershaft. The first two gears come off the countershaft.

    NP205 T-Case found!

    Now that is truly interesting ! I wonder why they did that ? In the Circular 6 bolt pattern NP205's the adapter housing is just a bit longer then the figure 8 pattern housing, so they needed the longer shaft. I have an original 6 bolt pattern housing on the shelf downstairs right now. I bought...

    NP205 T-Case found!

    That's what I was wondering about too ! Why just buy the transfer-case and leave the perfectly good TH400 behind ?

    Is a Dana 80 strong enough?

    Thanks. Your a Medic too ?!?! I have wanted to take some Medic classes just for taking care of my immediate family in an emergency. It is an extremely useful skill to have ! I'll also keep my eyes open for any 4X4 IHC's .

    Front spring "U" bolts.

    It is well documented that studs are superior to bolts. This is just one of hundreds of articles on the subject from "ARP Bolts" explaining the principals behind this.

    Front spring "U" bolts.

    So you went with "studs" . I didn't even think about that. Where you able to find long enough studs to get down into the housing for a good solid grip ? If so I might take mine back apart and use studs too.

    NP205 T-Case found!

    As usual there are many answers to the same problem. Your partially right about the NP205 input gears. The longer style was used in the later model 6 bolt style NP205. The shorter is the one used in the figure 8 pattern NP205 like I said earlier.

    Front spring "U" bolts.

    I was working on my front brakes this week and I found my passenger side spring pack had a leaf twisted out about 1" . So I got the 3Ib hammer out and beat it back inline. It moved way to easy, so I tried to tighten the bolts and "U" bolts. The inner Bolts would not tighten at all, so I decided...
