Howdy all,
As in my intro post, I bought a M1123 from govplanet. It is a roller and the price reflected that it definitely will need some work, which I am fine with. I generally find myself in the have more time than money category. Unfortunately, that sometimes leads to more spending, but I have had some good luck in the past on other projects. I had the HMMWV delivered a couple of weeks ago and have since been searching and learning about it as much as I can. Still have a lot of gaps to fill. I mostly focused on the fluids, what goes where and qty’s and what obvious parts are missing and needed to get it started.
I knew it was missing the rear prop shaft, serpentine belt and some other odds and ends listed on govplanet and pictures, but I figured a good once over will be needed. I have found that the union straps and bolts are missing from the rear diff, the fill plug is missing from the T-case and some other bits surrounding the t-case. The CDR (pcv) valve was also missing. Thanks to you all and the TM’s, I have been able to find the part numbers to these things and have ordered some.
I ordered a prop shaft(2520-01-459-0050) which according to the TM should be correct. However, when I tried to install it, it appears to be to long? I have attached some pics. So I consulted the TM again and noticed there are 2 shafts, depending on what T-case and if kit 57K3498 is installed. Does anyone have info on kit 57k3498 as I am curious what it is? I will be ordering another prop shaft here soon, 2520013575044 unless some one here has more insight?
Edit: From a quick look, it appears the 2 shafts have different tooth counts? 28 (2520013575044) vs 32 (2520-01-459-0050)? The 32 slipped right into the t-case but is to long, so what gives?
In the mean time I will focus on the fluids and filters till the new parts show.
