Looking for the same info....except for a M105A2.
For bearings, I came up with Timken number 39590 and 39520, and set #408. Anyone know if thats right, and if I order set 408 will it have all I need???
Thanks

Well, made it home ok. Now its time to start cleaning it up. Think Ill start with the wheel bearings :)
and here is a pic of my new ugly beast......gotta say, not bad for $120.
45 miles to go, taking my last break. Just trying to be extra careful. An extra 15 minutes here on the end of the trip won't kill me......but if i lot a hub......well....wouldn't kill me but it sure would really stink. :)
Good thing is i am not in a hurry. Got a thermous of coffee and my ham radio......oh and a sleeping bag. :)
Thanks for all the reply, they help to settle the nerves a bit.
150 miles. water just slowly steams off. No noise. Not spitting grease. Just warmer than any of my boat trailers have gotten. Im just going to take my time and hope for a shop on the way.
Would it even help to get grease into only one side?

and once I get my M105a2 fixed (ok, once I pick it up), the hunt for a M35 will begin...and then I will go to post 1 again. Great thread! I am down in Harrisburg.
picking up a M105a2....tried calling and it never let me leave a vm. called GL and they were going to send an email asking them to call me. Its about 200 miles, dont want to chance just driving up and then not getting in......
No doubt I will. I just found this board when I was searching for tires. I already downloaded the TM and am slowly sifting thru it for info.....a ton of stuff in there, well more like a ton and a half. :)
thanks for all the help, between the info youve given and the links to the other threads I've started a packing list and a prefight checklist of sorts.....
Just won an auction, didnt realize that the M105A2 was so big.....
Anyway, I have pintile hitch, and I have towed more than 2700lbs before but I am getting some feedback from others (and I have no idea whether they actually know or not) that it might be too much for the F150. So I ask the...
