Hello Carnac
Im trying to register this truck here in the Netherlands. I need some proof to
satisfy them, hope you can help!? Therefore i need the date of delivery. Or only a year, searching thru the last posts i guess 1971 or 1972

Yes got the hub plate off,then the ticking sound was gone away.
But with the plate attached, there is no difference in sound when I turned
the wheel in other directions. The knuckle boots are 1 year old and the knuckles where greased at that time.

Hi guys
Just solved a problem and already have another one :D
The problem is that my left front wheel makes a ticking noise, its not comming
from the wheelbearings. I guess its from the inner axleshaft bushings or the
inner axleshaft crossbearingjoint itself.
Anyone has experience with this...
There is indeed a rectangular surface each side of the bumper which has a
tan surface over OD with unit numbers in black.
BUT this is over the 100% tan layer of paint.
I did also recover a layer of white paint all over the truck,but not in the cabine.
White color is over the tan layer btw.
I...
Woww very cool stories!! It made my realize that the chance my truck had been
there seem much smaller as there where trucks in the US as a reserve also
in Tan color.
But I know most trucks here in the Netherlands and Belgium are coming
from the US depots in Germany and those where all in Camo...
Hello
Iam in the progress of sanding my 1972 M35a2. just to give it a new layer of OD. But while I was doing this I found sandcolor everywhere, bumpers, hood, in- and outside cabine, chassis, fenders etc.
I did also discover some numbers on the sandcolorlayer, the sandcolor is about the 3th...
Bleeding didnt help much. I'll put the orginal hydraulic head back on and see what happens then... If it starts up rightaway, then I need a new hydraulic head.
thanks,
Corné
thats a relief, but I was thinking could I have done something wrong with fuelshutoff??
I think it only fits one way back in, but is it true?
But I took off one injectorline and gives fuel, it squirts about 1 feet away.
Maybe the hydraulichead is worn..??
At least I could try again with the...
Hi guys
Anyone know how timing of the IP works?? I just replaced the
hydraulichead, but I doesnt fire up again.
I put the first cilinder at compressionstroke and set the pointer at crankshaftpulley and
the scribe mark at the pointer under the rectangular cover on the IP.
Then I put the...
Hi fellows
Last week I went to REOMIE our biggest army dump in the Netherlands,
they have more than 400 2-1/2 tons trucks in stock all of them for export.
They also have a fulltime Injectorpump rebuilder in the shop and I asked
him some advise. He told me what to do and it was quite simple...
I havent heard from him since last week..but I will wait gently until he replies.

But first I would like to fix mine if possible, very understandeble I think.

I will think about it.
Thanks,

Hi guys

Do I need to be carefull, I have no idea what happens when I take it off.

Hi guys
I will start with the bad news first :cry:
During the compressiontest, I saw that one of the injectorfuellines was squirting
some fuel, but not under high pressure like the other 5 did.
I suspect something in the pump is not working like it should
Good news is that the compression...
Any ideas left here on the board??
Well I was thinking of a compressiontest, how much compression should it have?
About the fuel injector pump are these for sale or rebuildable and where to
get parts?? Here in the Netherlands rebuild pumps cost 2500 euros and
sometimes they have takeouts for...
