That turbo is the one on an LDS 427-2 from an M35A1 truck. It is built for power not clean air. If it is on an LDT 465 - 1 engine, you ought to install a Pyrometer real soon. That turbo produced 146 HP on the infamous LDS 427 engine. I have one of these early Hypercycle engines in an old dump...

Hi Squirt Truck, I have a 5 ton transfer case apart in my garage, I have the top hat off. I figure that it is in the neutral position as it sits there with no air to it. I will try it tomorrow morning. It ought to turn free as it sits there, right? If that is the case, I will be real happy...

I have a 1954 Diamond T 5 ton Bituminous Asphalt Distributor truck,,,, guess they may have made M62s too. If it is really a Reo, it probably is a 2 1/2 ton. JT

Is any one out there familiar with the workings of the air actuated sprag in the 5 ton? I have one apart at my shop and I can't see where there is a neutral position where the sprag collar would lay when there is no air to the cylinder. I think the sprag defaults to forward direction when the...

I understand tired, get some rest, then tell us if you got the overhaul set from M35Tom. I'm hoping he will handle all the gaskets we need. He is knowledgeable and straight up in my book. JT

Baxter, you are talking about Head Gaskets, they are looking for valve cover gaskets. Did your Head Gaskets come with valve cover gaskets also? I am wondering if M35 Tom will find a way to offer complete head sets including intake/exhaust and water outlet gaskets with the Head Gaskets. That...

The cooling system is too good, ask Cranetruck, he has anaylized it all the way and the M35A2 runs too cool. Winter front or cardboard, your choice. Some of us run Winter fronts all year around. It ought to run at 180 degrees for proper efficiency. Trucks with heaters shpould have a 195 degree...
