Every bottom end knocking engine I have ever pulled apart has needed the crank turned. -
M24 Chaffee ORD 9
So badass to hit the start button on the left Caddy, having it bust off, then the right Caddy, then hearing the combined rumble, before dropping the Hydramatics into “lets go” and hearing the Caddies scream.- NDT

M24 Chaffee ORD 9
You will not find a digital version of that TM. I am 90% sure they are the same, suggest you PM member "hawk-aggie" who works at a museum that has both a Stuart and Chaffee and all the associated TMs.- NDT

Alternator 28 Volts 60 Ampere
This stud shown in the picture should always have +24 volts on it. The little wire is the excite wire and it will have +24 volts with the ignition on. Check for issues with the Cannon plug going into the Protective box. -
6.2 m1028 water pump
Looks like the right one unless you have serpentine conversion. Flush block and radiator while you got things open. -

Brake Bleeding ideas/failed ideas
Is the bleeder on the calipers as high up as possible? If not unbolt them and place a block of wood inside the piston travel area, then orient the bleeder facing up. -

M1079 electrical help please.
I’ve found that lots of times when dealing with FMTVs that have had civilian batteries installed, people get the cables mixed up. Check all that first. -
M1079 electrical help please.
The box with square red lights is the tire pressure controller and has nothing to do with starting. -
M35's with radio racks in the cargo bed
It’s possible, however there were never any Signal Corps engineered “kits” produced other than some brackets designed to mount radios on top of the troop seats. Like you said, most of the times this installation waa in 4x4 trucks. -
M211 Holley 885-FFG rebuild help.
The little wire attached to the needle should be bent in a u shape such that when the float drops down, it pulls the needle away from the seat. Check for trash in the seat that could prevent the needle from closing off fuel flow.- NDT

Did a Steel Soldier Site Search (Gasket + Bridge truck + gas + fuel filter + R6602) but nothing came back :(
Looks like a AC type T-2 fuel filter used on all the WW2 vehicles, the Jeep parts people have kits for them.- NDT

Starting procedures...M38 vs M38 A1 :)
I don’t use the hand throttle, I typically blip the gas pedal with my left foot while pressing the starter with my right foot. It’s important to keep the engine as unloaded as possible until oil pressure comes up.- NDT
