So after a parts shopping trip last week I got a few things that I needed for the M36. A long style air pack to replace my old busted one. It could be a new old stock one. It has all the plastic plugs in the fitting holes. Going to check out the internals just to make sure before I install it...

Well one thing marked off the list already. I was able to get my hands on good take off C turbo. Finally was able to change it out today only took about an hour. Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk

I ended up with a M109a3. I started on this project for some one else and things changed due to medical stuff on their end. So I ended up with it. Luckily it's in pretty good shape. Just changed all the wheel cylinder, wheel seals and re packed the bearings. She runs great just needs some tires...

It's a long style pack Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk

In the process of rebuilding my brake system on my M36, I am on to rebuilding the air pack. Nothing came apart easily but it all did. The only part that didnt come apart was the pushrod bushing. So the question is this a replaceable part or is the whole pack trashed? Sent from my SM-G975U...

So the M36 has some company for alittle bit. The m109 project I'm also working on. The 109 isnt too bad just little things. But for the M36 the brake lines and fittings have been ordered. I manged to save all the T fittings. And the soft line kit I ordered a while back will take care of the old...

Replaced all the wheel cylinders, seals and that whole mess. Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk

I'm really wondering how spoiled this truck was. It doesn't seem like it ended up at depo. All the axles motor trans are all the same year as the truck. Front brake lines are old school style and from what i can tell there isnt a ton of paint. Too bad there is no real way to find out the history...

Thanks Tracer. That helps out alot. I'll be able to use the hoses that came in set I ordered. I have a new set of boots that are waiting to go once I pull everything to do the brakes. I'll be checking everything as I get to each part. Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk

Heres what I have. I already cut the hard lines off to try and match that soft and that's when I found that something was off. I also is the image out of the tm Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk

Ok so after looking through that TM something doesn't make sense with what I'm seeing on there and what's on my truck and then what I can find parts wise. The TM shows a single hose that goes from the axle to the wheel, I have found a hose that does from eastern. But my truck has a short soft...

Thanks on that info. I havent really done too much with that TM I have it downloaded with all my others just havent done much more then browse through it. Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk

I gotta give Big Mike's Motor pool huge shout out. I reached out to him to see if he could help me out with a data plate. And he came through and it looks amazing. Alot better then the 1st replacement one I got awhile back. And now the latest updates. I'm going to be rebuilding my entire brake...

If you are going to use the current 3 color with the 383 brown, then you should use the 383 green. The black would stay the same. Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk

Yes I have the lube order for it and I've read it a few time now. And got alot of grease tube since I'm sure things are pretty dry by now on her. Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk

Well kinda figure that the brakes were gonna be just that simple. Went to start taking off the flexible brake lines and they were rusted on bad. So instead of cleaning out the lines it's looking like she's gonna brand new brake lines. Probably should look at replacing all the hardware for the...

I think the non turbos did. I've seen a few other m36s and they have a turbo with the stack. But in could be wrong. I really dont know anything about the history of this truck but theres alot of things I've found that makes me wonder how much of the truck is "stock" For being a Marine truck she...

Thanks that's what I'll try. I'm replacing all the wheel cylinders, rebuilt the master and air pack and all the soft lines. So all that's left is cleaning the hard lines. And putting alchohol through them should do the job. Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk

I'm getting ready to do the brakes on my M36. I have no idea what's in my lines since it's been sitting for so long. I was just looking at what I could do to clear out the lines so I don't have to go through so much DOT 5. Would compressed air work then bleed the system ? Sent from my SM-G975U...
