I had a pesky oil leak where the spin on adapter meets the block. Only torquing the retaining nut way above the specs fixed that. I have a spin on filter that leaks unless it is torqued ape-tight. the second one is fine. Go figure.
Not sure what it is, but it looks like something John Rambo would use to drag dead enemies out of the forest!

Good effort!
I nevertheless echo what was said before.....consider replacing the inserts. The consequences of a dog bone falling off while on the highway and the axle tilting, potentially shearing a U-joint etc. are likely ingredients for a bad day.
I decided to feel the pain only once, took a...
That roof is exactly the right combo of sophisticated and crude looks that makes it appear bone stock! You certainly know what you are doing when fabricating; "luck" had little to do with the outcome; this looks very well and precisely made.
The cab interior roof HAS to be blue, because who is...
Also wanted to say that the REB kit for the front axle is a desirable upgrade. The sprag works, especially when the operator understands it and avoids "wind up". However, the REB converts the automatic engagement to a purely mechanical engagement with a lever. Prior to the air shift transfer...
I am not a gasser expert - other on this site are - but the ones I have seen had the standard "car" like shift pattern. The wonky shift pattern for the multifuel came out of necessity for an OD gear for the lower revving engine. Stands to reason that, as gassers got parts replaced, they were...
I see that the data plate with the shift pattern appears to be showing the multifuel shift pattern (both 3 and 4 away from the dash).

All signs of timing 180 degrees out. Matt does a decent job wrenching on the Deuce. Fun to watch if you have done this work before and it actually...
Not sure what you were reading, but 16.00R20 are 52" tires. The largest that you can fit on a stock Deuce is 46". That means 12.00R20, 11.00R20 and 395/85/20. The latter leave room for a sheet of paper between them and, because they are MPT tires, they ought to run on a rim that fits these...
I am sure there were...interesting...incidents to make the military want this.
I am wondering...do all the M35 have this oddly shaped switch, including the gasoline powered trucks? Or is something specific to the multifuel?
I suspect, for consistency, they all have it, but I wonder where the...
@Kacykl you are right, as I stare at my phone screen with a jaundiced eye. OK, but now I have THIS:
TM 9-2320-361-20 ; 7-22 TORQUE RODS REPLACEMENT ; p 7-51 and p 7-52 ;
The lower image on p 7-53 shows the torque rod (22) and the nuts ( 18 ) and (21) and it says 175-200 ft lbs (237-271 Nm)...
The 361 series 34 says "Tighten nuts (5) 200-275 lb-ft (271-373 N.m)."
This is the newest series of TM and the one I would trust.
