    Oil leak

    If you're going to pull the cannisters, how about my spin-on oil filter adaptors? This is the time to change over. John Tennis PS, actually, the oil filter gaskets are heavy fiber type and fit into a recess in the original filter base and won't be distorted by turning a loose filter cannister on...

    5 ton shear pins

    If I could find the exact correct parts at a price I could possibly justify for my WORK trucks I would not have had to start making parts. If one has to have the exact correct winch shear pin with NSN number attached, don't contact me. John Tennis

    RE: Re: Foiled by the m35....again! Ace and a few of us "old guys" are making a little road trip next year, say 3400 miles give or take a few to Oregon, just to put our wheels in the Pacific. That ought to be excitement enough. Always better to let the trucker get her home the first time. I...

    Deuce leaking oil from base of filter

    I think the payback comes from 2 points not related to the dollar cost of spin-on adaptor set ups. First, your engine will develope oil pressure much faster with anti drain back filters which means you are running your motor with a pressurized film of oil between metal parts from the git go...

    M35A2 Axle shims needed

    Those stories are from more than a year ago, really not fair to flog a dead horse unless you have up to date personal gripes about someone. Internet gossip travels a long ways and real fast.
