Mine came from a large truck salvage yard in Sparta , Ky . Rural Truck Parts

I added power assist steering and radials ( 11R22.5) at the same time all I did was flip the front axle caster shims. I just reused the factory OEM shims . I don't have a clue as to the degree they were .

Shaft seals are cheap easy fix .

My Power Wagon has LSD in both front and rear Dana 60 axles . They are Dana Power Lock , these are not the same as a Detroit Locker , but this thing will absolutely drive anywhere on this planet with ease . Add the locker and never look back .

I did get stopped in my old M35 , it was running waste transformer oil . Non PCB . The inspector dipped his tube into the tank , dumped it on the ground and dipped it again , proceeds to ask me “ want is this ? “ I told him I don’t have a clue ! I have never put fuel in it since I purchased it...

Off Road only , I understand if you own property on two sides of a road , all is well for off road / farm use . If anything else you will loose all your profit x 10 in federal fines

I have done a few early Ford steering columns , very similar design just a huge amount smaller than an M35. I cut the shaft in a lathe , center bore ( drill ) it , taper it to near a point . Do the same to the splined shaft of choice. Add a pin to align the shafts . Weld them together , turn...

I adapter a Garrison Power Assist Steering to my M35 . It worked faultlessly , I think you can still purchase the system new .

I have 3 diesels with frost plug heaters , 2 BT Cummins and a MF tractor , never had one issue so far with any of them . The ones in the Cummins will keep the coolant around 90* . They do make in external pump type that is used on semi type trucks . You may need to think about one of this type ...

Sounds strange , but are you sure it’s staying submerged in coolant . They will not least long heating with no coolant .

As best as I recall it’s a 3/4 NPT plug , easy to locate if you want one

I had to whale the hell out of mine to get it to free the cone washers . Once they are free it’s off easily .
