Look for dents/scratches/marring on the frame near the dent in the driveshaft, I've seen many a bent one from fork lift loading. The off balance driveshaft may have caused the crack as well if it were severely out of balance, but I'd think you'd feel that going down the road. If you could post a...

What model unit is that? I need something like it for the boatyard

So after measuring everything twice over with tapes and scales, all is adjusted properly, pretty sure I'm just an idiot with low transmission oil....... Then after checking, turns out I'm an idiot with too much transmission oil, or so I believe. I did the knuckle test and rather than having a...

Anyone have a guess as to what the rotational travel of the throwout lever is supposed to be? In the picture posted here of the pulled transmission it looks like it sits at rest at 11 o'clock, mine is sitting at rest with all linkages connected at about 12 o'clock, and the complete pedal motion...

Mine are a little..... Creative. I think what you're looking for is in here, unless you have electric wiper motors.

Here she is guys, my first MV, 1969 Kaiser Jeep M35A2 W/W. Heart transplant was done at some point, the original engine replaced with an LDT-465 MFD 2/92 Yes, you really do feel all 4 of those horsepower 😆 Removed a cobbled 12v power supply and began wiring my 24v panel in Got...

I agree, if not this truck, my next one will definitely be done up like this.

https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/fuel-storage-and-filtering.217862/ Some good info there https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/waste-oil-filter.209312/ Some pics in there and more info. Filtering is very important, lots of ways to do it. Find what you like is my philosophy.

The green is a bit lighter than I'd like, but all in all for a little rattle can and time, fantastic coverage. We'll see how it looks after clear coat.

Sanded some panels down, hitting the rust again and buffing the gouges tomorrow, then paint. Gotta love rain days

Found the transfer case and transmission under the dirt and grossness from who knows how long, more importantly got to be soldier B while the ol lady whooped my bee hind as soldier A. First of my many projects she's taken interest in. Couldn't do it without you guys, huge thank you.

Didn't someone have a restoration of an hst not long ago? Be cool to see something like that......just saying......or HEMTT... A10.... You know, normal backyard stuff 🤣

So far I've found this bar measures 14in centerline to centerline, supposed to be 14 3/4. Right around an inch and a half of pedal travel, pedal is set to maximum height through the floor. The orange line looks backwards to me according to the TM, maybe I just read it wrong. Onward we go.

I'm having the same problem, thought it was in the shifter shaft, took advice from @gringeltaube and drew the conclusion it wasn't. If nobody minds a little thread resurrection/hijacking I'm knee deep in going in through the top. So far aside from pedal play, measurements check out but I can't...

Return from center, I didn't know it was supposed to stay when tilted towards the passenger side. They (synchros) shouldn't be but who knows. Can't diagnose anything properly with the clutch dragging and out of adjustment though, and putting what's happening with what you explained equals the...
