    2015 LA steel soldiers rally

    I may still be able to make the rally. I'm sure I can still drive the deuce, but I need my left hand working enough to set the park brake.

    2015 LA steel soldiers rally

    All I can say is never trust a semi auto open bolt handgun with issues.

    Got a Deuce! '62 M35A1

    About a case of brake parts cleaner per wheel is what you really need for a brake job on our trucks. You might have to cross a border to get it though. Most brake parts cleaner is prohibited for sale in Cali because of the yuppies and treehuggers.

    2015 LA steel soldiers rally

    Looks like I won't making it this year . Had an accidental pistol discharge this morning and shot myself in the arm. Shattered my elbow. Hope they can save it. I'm in the trauma center now.

    m35a2 bad rear wheel seal

    Well that sucks. Better keep my rear wheel bearings well serviced then.

    m35a2 bad rear wheel seal

    No, my memory is just crap. I could have sworn the spindles were riveted onto the rear housings. Would make sense to make them replaceable. I have a rear wheel that needs servicing soon so I'll have another look soon.

    939A2 with Electronic engine?

    So they took a semi- reliable truck and made it a nightmare to repair... The intercooler is awesome. Same can be done with our normal A2 trucks, but I can do without all the electronic junk. Still, that is really cool that you came across such a rare bird. At least it doesn't have a particulate...

    Why don't the brake drums have jacking bolts?

    I've never taken mine apart that way. I've taken them completely down, and the drums look like that. Maybe it is just the angle of the pic and how it is layed out. Looks different. I see now, the shield is still on it. Makes the hub look thicker. It is a front hub.

    m35a2 bad rear wheel seal

    You can remove the hot rivets from the rear spindles, machine them, then reinstall with grade 8 or 10 bolts and nuts with good lockwashers. Same as the front spindles. They are bolted on and they stay. Otherwise, what happens if you loose a rear wheel bearing and damage the spindle? Replace the...

    Why don't the brake drums have jacking bolts?

    Ok, so what is that hub and drum off of? Mine doesn't come apart like that.

    Oil seal mod. for 3053 input shaft

    I stopped in again today. Got to talking about guns and forgot to get a pic of the part, but it is almost done. Poor guy is working on it in between jobs but doing some nice work. It is almost done, just some inside work on the base and the mounting holes left. Sorry guys, but looks like this...

    Get those good body parts and swap them. No point in keeping destroyed old body parts. They are all the same.

    Lost pinion preload

    I'm just going to change the whole chunk out. I'll pull the bed, lift the chunk out with my wrecker, drop the new chunk in, then put the dropside I have back on there. Just have to order a third member to housing gasket. Ill fix this one later, when I'm not relying on it for transport.

    m35a2 bad rear wheel seal

    I fill the whole hub. Two pounds of grease per wheel hub.

    Not starting, but started yesterday.

    The small black three fingered clip holds the button on. They sometimes just pop off for no reason. Reinstall and be on your way.

    Not starting, but started yesterday.

    If the fuel shutoff lever moves freely ( the little lever under that two screw cover, should move back forward to the 7 o'clock position) then the button keeper has fallen off of the hydraulic head stem. You will need to pull the hydraulic head and reinstall the button and keeper.
