Are there M35A2's around that were repowered with M35A3 drivetrain.

The air compressor on a cat3126 is large. I don't know if it hit the steering box? But if the air compressor on a A3 doesn't hit, then I think it'll fit. Not sure if the 3116 and 3126 use the same air compressor? If so do a HF54 conversion, it's smaller than the stock box!

Would it help to look at an A3 with the 3116....year 97 and toward the end.

I'll pay for some help changing the Allison. Have one 1545 rebuilt ready to go in.

What the deuce really needs is 590 gears. Then even the Allison 545 would work and avoid the 1545.

Is that gearing conversion a thing with the Rockwell axles?

Ouverson engineering.com has 4:90 gear ratio for the 2.5 ton axles.

I would like to see an image of how close the 3116 compressor is to the steering box?

You can come take a look.....I'm 20 miles away from you.

I forgot to take a picture or actually measure, but after looking in my A3's engine compartment recently, I think there's a little less than 1 foot between the top of the steering box and the bottom of the air compressor.
