    Spicer 3035 questions...

    I swapped a NV4500 into my M715 when I put the 396 in 4 years ago. It works, but for the money I could have gotten several 3053A's. Or, a 3053A, a M35 pto, pto shaft and most of a pto winch all for the price of just the NV4500. I also wouldn't have to use 1 gallon of $35.00 per quart oil in...

    Deuce Accelerator Pedal Replacement

    It has been a year since I put the Gasser together, but I am pretty sure the pedal mounts have nuts on the other side. As with anything, look it over before you drill them out.

    LH - RH Brake Adjust for 105

    Here is a picture of the inside of a M35 brake that might explain what happens when you turn the top ones better than words.

    LH - RH Brake Adjust for 105

    Um, my 105a3 has the same basic brakes as the M35. You adjust the bottom off center bolt until the pads have the clearance from the drum the TM calls for. Then you adjust the top bolt with an 11/16" wrench until the tops of the shoes have the proper clearance. I just described what the manual...

    Cargo cover tie-ups?

    Send a PM to Sermis. He has a bunch of the straps with the plastic hook on one end and a metal tip on the other with a bolt hole in it.

    M715 Parts Wanted

    Better watch where you park that trailer. Somebody stole the front axle! They might come back for another. Drive safe.

    Pliobond, non waxed dental floss, 8 needles, 1 pair of gloves and 2 pair of pliers is what I used to sew my top back onto the plastic thing at the front. took about 4 hours and has lasted since October.

    GPS in a deuce

    Chris, I got this a few weeks ago. I read it while driving the M35 with it suction mounted to a MWO data plate between the gauges and dash storage area. Works good stuck to the M715 windshield as well. I will be able to give you a better road trip report after I drive the M35 a few hundred...

    Pulsing vibration at 35mph+ in Deuce

    Check all of your tires for pressure too. With a gauge. I had a harmonic on my Gasser that would go from nothing to big shack and back to nothing in about a mile while at speed and then repeat every 3-5 miles. One of my inner rear tires was at 5 psi or so. It still thumped like the rest, but...

    M715 Parts Wanted

    Take a trip over to Bowie and see Mark at Rapco: Rapco Parts Company Call him first about what you are looking for. He has a lot of M715 stuff, but not enough to advertise about if that makes sense. After that, the usual sources such as AB Linn, Antelope Valley, Snake River, Saturn...

    Wheel type?

    I like that theory. About 1/2 of my 15 or so M715 rims have the every other champfer on them.

    Bat wing Deuce machine shop gasser

    That bat wing is a rare bird indeed. The one rim you can actually see inside is a M34 rim. Another rare thing.

    Ragtop to Convertable in 6.8 Seconds...

    I have had the "instant drag chute" deploy on me as well. I glued/sewed mine back together. Why can't you legally drive the truck with no top?

    help removing body from frame

    You are correct. At least for the ones not at either the very front or very back. When I pulled my bed off a few months ago. Most of the carriage bolts just spun in place. I "think" there are 12 or 14 fasteners holding the bed to the frame. 8 of mine had to be cut off. The 101 came with a...

    Gasser main seal replacement

    OD Iron list a 1 piece seal on his site. My 8022 manual is out in the truck and the rest of the house is asleep so I can't slip out to get it. If you still need to know, I will look Monday.

    Cab Reinforcement Plates

    Rory, Look at Sermis' big truck the next time you or there or at the air show in a few weeks. He has a NOS one installed. Way different than yours.

    Gasser main seal replacement

    The -20 and -30 in the manual section with the (1965) notation cover the OA331. Then there is the TM-8022 which is just about the Gasser. Kind of a combination 10/20/30 all in one book. ZiggyO here on SS also has a bunch of NOS Gasser stuff.
