This is last years thread, I was just poking @MWMULES to see if he had his tables yet. Once he gets them I’m sure he’ll be along to start a new thread.
Also, I may still have four wheels I could bring up. Let me do some digging, and remind me if you don’t hear back.
You got it. Leave the engine on the m35 off, and make sure you have plenty of chain or strap between it and the pickup so you can be sure not to get ran into.
A little messy, but if you have a slick concrete garage floor, you can do the same as above with just a little gear oil on the floor to slide the duals out on. We used to use one of those white hard plastic mud flaps under the tire to put the oil on instead of the concrete, then all you had to...
If they are on the trailer straight. I’m thinking you could run a chain and binder on each side from the truck d-rings back to the trailer to hold it straight. Then maybe have soldier B use the clutch/motor for a brake, while you pull it off with another vehicle.
Post pictures, and get through those brakes ASAP, Haspin is fast approaching, we look forward to seeing a “new” truck!

The more frequently you dive/use your truck, the less problems you’ll have with seals and all the other rubber bits. Don’t let the fear of throwing rods discourage you.
Your dad may have inadvertently stumbled into the LMTV section when reading all the maintenance horror stories…[emoji2957]
I got a chance to test out the tightening torque on the different settings on my 2767-20
Tightens about 60ft lb on setting #1, 170ft lb on #2, and around 1,000ft lb on 3 & 4 using a 1/2 to 3/4 adapter, so I would expect some torque loss there.
Correct, it was a very common jeep modification at one point, that you used to see in “kits”. I bought all my junk separately off ebay for well under $100 if IIRC. Don’t forget you need 24v hi/lo bulbs.
I went with some 7” e-code h4 housings, h4 bulbs, and ceramic h4 pigtails with the pigtails off my original light bulbs spliced onto them. Those e-code lenses are fantastic!
