    PLEASE READ-NC Rally-NEED NEW HEAD COUNT

    I just voted with a positive "Maybe". I should be able to go and will plan on it, but I don't know right now that I can go for certain and I don't want to take up someone else's spot if it were to turn out that I can't go. It should be fun & I don't want to miss out. Neil, thanks for reserving...

    Bonjour from France !

    Under Dash Wireing --- Why Not More Accessible

    I just re-wired my M35 and working behind the dash on it was a breeze compared to what I've had to work on in the past. I guess it is was you're use to working on. As a previous owner of older MGs and Jaguars with Lucas electical systems, I've spent many an hour working behind their dash...

    Throwing the Main Drive Shaft. Photos of the Aftermath.

    I felt a vibration for 15-20 seconds, and then it sounded like an explosion. :shock: It took a few seconds, but then I realized the engine wasn't driving the rear wheels any longer. Luckily, a 13,000 lb vehicle traveling at 50 mph can coast for a long way and I was able to pull off the road...

    Oil Leak From Under The Dash

    doghead- Forgot to mention that my front axle does engage properly. And a good thing it does. I was on a trip when the oil leak started & decide to return home rather than continuing. About 5 miles from home I threw........no, launched, the main drive shaft. But that's another story. I...

    Oil Leak From Under The Dash

    FrieghtTrain- The oil is definitely coming from the transfer switch. I wrapped a paper towel around it to stop it from leaking on my foot as I was driving home.

    Oil Leak From Under The Dash

    I drain the air reservoirs everytime I shut down at the end of the day. Both tanks are draining OK. The fluid is oil, not brake fluid. Is there any way that oil from the transfer case could get into this line? Thank for the help! -Russ

    While driving my M35A2 the other day, it peed on my right foot. It looks like I have oil coming out of the front axle engagement switch located under the dash. Any ideas to the cause and fix? Thanks. -Russ

    ATHS SHOW-troutman nc-july25-26

    Neil, Glad to hear that neither you nor your son were hurt, nor anyone else. :) And also that the damage wasn't too bad. That being said: I think you need to get to the bottom of why this happened. It is clearly not equipment failure because this is finest equipment available. And it...
