I had thought of this - when I drained the oil I tried to stick an inspection camera up the drain hole. I was foiled by a metal screen covering the drain hole on the inside of the pan. If I can find an oil pan gasket I'll do this at the next change. Good call.

Oh, one last thing. Here are the distances between the three oil holes I used in the above. Dimensions in inches.

So, what I'm doing to clean out this engine is running junk (FRAM) oil and adding SeaFoam at 1oz/qt. I'll run this oil for a month or so and then change it and the filter. That should do a decent job cleaning up anything internally that I didn't get in the first change. Here is where I want...

So, the discussions alluded to above: PARTIAL BYPASS OIL FILTER CIRCUITS: Back in the day the oil pump fed two parallel circuits: The lubrication circuit and the filtration circuit. This is why the top and bottom oil holes (from pump and to engine) were in the same plenum as the TO FILTER line...

Anyhow, on to mounting: The left two bolt holes are where the heat shield attaches. I didn't get a dedicated picture of this, but remember how I said to hang on to the original oil filter housing? Use that as a mounting plate to mount the new oil filter remote mount kit. I used the oil...

All, As an owner of two gasser M35s, I went looking for details on the oil system when it came time to referb that subsystem. Despite my searching, I found information kind of hard to find, so this post is my attempt to collate this information in one place for future readers who might be...

Everybody, Hopefully in the next month I'm going to be painting my M35 gasser, and I want to have authentic bumper markings per the truck's history. Problem is, I can't seem to find the "decoder ring" to reverse-engineer myself some bumper numbers. It seems like this should be easy enough info...

No kidding! Right now I have all the wood off of the bed (cutting new boards) and I took an M18 cutoff wheel and cut out a bunch of rust spots. Currently fabricating patch panels to weld in, and then it will be ready for sanding and primer. Only part I have had a hard time finding shockingly...

Thanks! City and state updated. So pictures: I'm not a huge picture guy (unfortunately - I think making how-to videos would be useful but I just don't have the time!) but here are a few of the first deuce - the one I'm restoring to Korean War vintage. The truck started life at Fort...

All, Just curious as I'm still learning a lot about the deuce "lore" and history. What is the order of rarity of the M35 models (Standard, A1, A2, A3). Thanks,

Hey everybody, About two years ago I was gifted two M35 Standard trucks. I want to get them both running and roadworthy, but I'm focusing on one at a time. Both gassers. The first is nearly done (mechanically) except brakes, which I am doing right now. It's getting the full Korean War...
