    5 ton grease zerks

    All I've ever seen in 5-tons are regular size Zerks. I had your problem, and it turned out to be a worn-out chuck on the grease gun.

    Rim specs

    In post #6, I believe that is a trailer wheel. M715 wheels are a lockring type.

    Locating a part for the wrecker

    Those Crosby's are not the same, they need to be permanently swaged. The one used on most military winches is a screw-together job, with a bronze insert that supports the individual strands. A bench vice and a quality open-end wrench are all one needs to remove/install those. Something to be...

    Does anyone "float the gears" when shifting M39/M809?

    A clutch linkage is a lot easier to fix than a transmission...:unsure:

    Electrical system

    That Signal Stat turn signal control box is the very early attempt at such. Really junk, Don't even try to use that logic. Too bad your rig is all 12V now. Sad.

    Getting behind or under the dashboard M35A2

    This is a dash I pulled some time ago. I wasn't trying to repair anything, rather salvage everything before it was scrapped. Not hard to do for firewall repairs, if one disconnects everything, pops out the instrument cluster and pulls the Bowden cables from wherever. Sorry 'bout the...

    Turbo vs no turbo

    I've heard it said the early original naturally aspirated Multifuel 427 was the best one.

    Turbo vs no turbo

    The 'Whistler' was the most desirable, and that was only because of it's note.

    Getting behind or under the dashboard M35A2

    I've seen the entire dash panel removed to do those jobs, there aren't too many bolts to deal with.

    Getting behind or under the dashboard M35A2

    Speedo cables are easy to deal with. Unscrew the nut, and just pull it off. You won't hurt anything. It is a good time to squirt a bit of oil down the cable, it likes to be lubed a little. Putting it back on is easy as well, just wiggle it in and run the nut up snug.

    T-29/M-29Weasel in Arizona....in need of a better home

    I sold Don a good running Continental 6602 engine, said to go in his Autocar tractor. I wonder if that ever happened, or is it still sitting on it's transport frame?

    PTO Winch and Advice Wanted

    I have a good M35 winch as well. No PTO or drive shaft, but chances are they wouldn't be right for your application. Located just outside the Phx metro.

    Howdy from Arizona

    Braden LU2 on M37

    LU-2 is a 2-ton winch. The LU-4 is a 4-ton, but derated for the M37 to 7,500 lbs. BTW the MU-2 was a WW2 winch, found on many Dodge WC's.

    Hi-lo range

    Your transfer case is synchronized, and if there is sufficient torque while underway, it may be really hard to shift. As said, use the clutch, or bump the throttle when moving and pulling on the lever.

    Trailer identification

    Also seen it with a 100kW genset on it.

    Headlights OR parking lights ???

    Keep in mind the standard Milspec flashers/control handles are poorly designed. One quicky short anywhere between the handle and lights, one or both are gone. At the least, put an inline 10A fuse in the flasher feed and brake light switch. At the best, get the one by Nartron, rather than the...

    Purchasing my first Deuce

    No bolts, just a piece of steel rod, drilled on each end for cotterpins and washers. Easy to make them up from a ground rod, and they are Copper covered so won't leave rust stains.
