How to change an M35a3 tire / stop air leaks / Picture by Picture

Hi,

I had a leak in my M35a3 wheel assembly and took the thing apart to replace the seals and a few cracked brass connectors.

As I didn't know what I was doing I took pictures in case I need to undo something that I shouldn't have done. Turns out I must have done something right as the wheel doesn't leak any more :)

See attached for picture by picture what I did. Sorry about the disclaimer .. I just can't afford to have any one sue me for trying to be helpful. (sigh)

Comment, feedback, guidance welcome ... any edits to the doc will be corrected and replaced on this original post. No need to go to the bottom to get the latest document.

I like this PDF a lot. I've been referring to it throughout my tire replacement project. The one thing I'd change is that a regular 5-gallon bucket won't cut it for removing the rim from the tire! I suggest using wood blocks or an engine hoist instead.
