M35a2 motor swap

I see you got the clevis pin out for the clutch linkage.

Fun isn't it? That is, WITHOUT pulling too far and losing the pieces inside.

Actually I pulled Iit too far. It was rusted solid. Stupid setup. I'm replace it with a clevis pin and cotter pin and alot of antiseize

Ok problem.
Reading TM 9-2815-210-34-2-2 page 677 sect 5-47 through page 683 5-53.
It shows a gasket with the short picktube for the rear sump but doesnt show squat for the front tube. Is that also a pickup tube ??
Does it need a gasket ?

Tm seems to be missing info here.

Looking at the parts TM 9-2815-210-34P, figure 20, it looks like there is a gasket for the long pickup tubes, item #35. The short tube looks like a gasket #19, o-ring #34 and a gasket #28

 

[acesneights1]

Thanks Warthog. I will look at that one when I get home.

Waiting for clutch. The good news is the flywheel had been replaced and was virgin so it cleaned up nice with a fresh cut .
Clutch is on order from Kublos and oil pump gaskets from TNJ . I stripped the old motor yesterday. It was a good experience because now I know how to dissamble pretty muvh anything. I goofed with the inj pump removal. It looked lime the gear needed to come off but it did not so If I ever have to use the IP I will have to figure out how to realign the gear to the IP.
Saved everything including oil cooler, the good cyl head. My buddy wants a piston from it to make a lamp. Maybe Ill make one for my son. I was gonna save the cam and crank but homestly I doubt Ill ever need them and they are too hesvy to ship to sell.
Gotta figure out how to remove thebbalancer. With it all ripped apatt it was a good demonstration model to show my 8yr old how it works.
Opened the oil filters. Saw metal bits so I am very confident this engine is scrap.

Are you still looking for an engine?

You still have an active wanted ad.

The TM shows gaskets for both flywheel housing to block and trans to bell housing. what purpose do they serve ? Insulator or for deep water travel ?
RTv ? Or do I need to source new ones ?

 

[Recovry4x4]

Gaskets required for the deep water fording kit. If you plan on keeping it high and dry, use sillycone.

I would prefer to use the gskets..Who carries them ?

Why ask what to use of you already made up your mind? Any reputable dealer has them.

Really ? Who. I have not had any luck so far.

RTV will do the job. Glad to see you are trying to keep it original and you are following the TMs

 

[acesneights1]

Kublos had thdm. He is sending them out today. I will have them for the install party.
I have a love/hate relationship with the TMs....
They are very detailed but difficult to Navigate...

Very true ! Just like Ford Service Manuals !

 

[Recovry4x4]

Memphis and White Owl have them as well. For the folks new in the hobby, when something just can't be found, call White Owl. They have everything and great peronal service as well.

 

[acesneights1]

Kublos has been pretty good to me as well. Ken is a great guy. My clutch kit arrived in 2 days and came with everything including the alignment tool.

 

[rtk]

The Kublo's are pretty good people . I am glad this fiasco is working out for you . Man this has been a lo-----oooooong road for you . But you are getting closer to the finish line. Just think how great that FIRST ride will be !!!!! Bob k
