    M35A2 mirror arms

    Here is an old thread which helped me a lot, when I made mine (almost two decades ago!) A few more details, attached:

    Curious old M49 fuel truck

    They both are basically the same shape/profile as all others. Exception would be that Ø4.0" hole for the winch DS, to the left of the front one.

    Curious old M49 fuel truck

    That A22 would be crossmember "Z" (#7521803), here: The longitudinal beam T-ed to that crossmember is what supports the transfer case on the drivers side. A bit confusing because there are two styles of it, this one positioned vertically. Pictures, here...

    Front winch pic needed!!!

    This drawing might help some. Even if it wasn't exactly to scale, it shows the distance from mounting surface to hinge CL to be about 1-7/8" (+/- 1/16")

    1968 Kaiser M35A2 shifting issues

    A bent shift fork would still allow engaging either 2nd or 3rd, no....? For the record: I've worked on dozens of these transmissions, coming from all kind of environments. And I think I've seen every possible condition/ failure/ abuse.... Never found a fork that was bent - yet...

    1968 Kaiser M35A2 shifting issues

    Yes, the top cover needs to come off. Then try to slide 2nd /3rd synchro back and forth, manually. You should be able to engage the clutch collar of the synchro unit into either gear, just by using both hands, no tools. If that doesn't work and the collar is stuck in N, then most likely the two...

    Camshaft bearings

    According to TM 9-2815-210-34P, Fig. 8 it takes 4 bearing-sleeves #s 10910977, -78, -79 and -80 . They come in a kit with the P/N 5702653 (NSN 3120-00-849-1030) I've no idea where to get those...🤷‍♂️

    Curious old M49 fuel truck

    Not sure if you are referring to the centerline of the PTO output shaft? If so, the offset is less than 1/2", actually.

    She go in gear

    Sounds like your clutch disc isn't fully liberated when you depress the clutch pedal. Try to lengthen the pushrod a few threads to give it a bit more travel. You mean, the PTO output shaft (& winch driveshaft) is always turning? No, that is not normal and should be avoided. 1) Shift points...

    Mounting and balancing the tires

    Well yes, but it not only depends on size and speed. How many ounces it takes to get a tire/wheel combo to neutral equilibrium plays a big role, too. Every case is different: I've had HET wheels which only needed a few ounces while others took up to 5 pounds of lead (!) Same goes for HMMWV...

    Steel Soldiers giveaway sponsored by unitedstatesoffreight.com

    USF (Joey) has shipped stuff for me more than once and most likely I would hire them, again. Now my obvious questions: Is this contest open for all SS members, US-citizens or not ? And what would be the approx. timeframe for the winner(s) to actually schedule a transport ?

    When did they switch rims on deuces from rivets to welds?

    Good question. Hard to tell, maybe sometime in the early 60's (?) If you are lucky there will be a manufacturing date somewhere under all that paint. Here is a real old-timer....

    Deuce winch PTO pass-through

    ...."built into the T-case".... ?? It's the P-136-C PTO and it can be retrofitted to any of the T-136-21 or -27 model transfer cases, on any of the M44 series trucks, provided they are stock. Obviously not in this case. OP said: ................

    Deuce winch PTO pass-through

    Deuce winch PTO pass-through

    If I was you I would purchase this part (it's called auxiliary drive and it bolts right to the rear of your winch PTO), then find a suitable pump and connect both via a short drive shaft. Just keep in mind that the transmission-mounted PTO is only good for accessories up to 25Hp. Doesn't...
