Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
That's what I would do... if I ever decided to use a gasket between those surfaces.........Should I still put a coating of RTV gasket on each side of the gasket material?
No issues. Read this old post: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showth...se-mountings-M35&p=37312&viewfull=1#post37312 and this other one, here: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showth...rsion-question&p=302950&viewfull=1#post302950................There is a difference in the driver side mounting, first what I got with the air shift, second what came off my truck. I hope this doesn't cause any issues.
"I'm wondering if it would be easier to change the input and output housings, rather than the internals of the main TC housing...."
I thought it was clear…..
To convert your sprag TC: open both main cases, clean and inspect synchro, shift fork, gears (dogs) for wear, check brgs., recondition companion flanges, remove 33T gear from both rear output shafts, swap these alone, not the gears!, re-assemble with new seals, select shims for correct brg. preload and finally swap entire front output section.
Sounds simple but besides the didactical aspect and value it is a lot of work on heavy stuff and I would only recommend this if your sprag TC really deserves to be saved from scrap as a low noise, low mileage unit!
Maybe better find a new owner for it (some still seem to prefer them) and try to get a sound air shift for more or less the same $$$.
