    1968 M35a2 over heating

    First thought would be to verify coolant temp. If you are in fact running hot, I'd look for a radiator place that can rod the core. That means the tubes might be clogged and they will run a rod through to clear any stopped up tubes.

    How to remove the Fuel Shutoff Rod on the IP

    So, have you gotten an estimate from this diesel place? Prices can shoot up quickly. I would think you'd be better off buying an ip off ebay or from a reputable dealer like White Owl or Boyce equipment. Off the cuff, it sounds like the front half of you ip is toast.

    Another newbie with a brake question

    I didn't see it mentioned, the gap between your brake pad and drum is supposed to be .010 and .020 top and bottom. I've adjusted mine .015 top and bottom and have had good success. Just my .02 cents...

    Just wanna be sure as I'm seriously close to going super single...

    Yes tubes are fine for those tires. Make sure you get radial tubes if they are radial tires as bias ply tubes will blow up from the heat of radials. Just so it has been stated, the xml tires don't wear as good as the xzl tires.

    Clutch fork

    If using the stock trans, I'm betting you'd need the 715 version. Might need to swap out the throw-out bearing, but since the 715 fork should be on hand, I'd start there.

    Tall cargo cover

    I have used a hemtt cargo cover and an lmtv cover. Both were better than stock height wise. I ended up using the hemtt bows with an lmtv cover and that is perfect imho. Mine is not on the truck 100% of the time, but it is on more than its off. The only issues I've run into is when driving with...

    Anyone know what this Caulk is for Fuel?

    Lots of gasoline-compatible sealants out there. Hard to say what was used 50yrs ago.

    Glues/Adhesives

    Primer increases bond strength too. Hard to say what's best, maybe contact the panel board and see what they recommend.

    Help needed PTO won’t disengage

    You should have 2 controls for that pto. One should be on the floor by the transmission tunnel, the other should be on your left, between the cab and the seat. The one on the floor should control the winch only. It has (i believe) two speeds and reverse. The one on the left should be on (up...
