    11r22.5

    So a redirect on this thread. Will dual 22.5 rims with standard 11r22.5 semi tires fit in the standard dual tire dual axle M35 configuration or do you have to single the truck out ? I haven't read this thread in a couple months and that was really the question I should have asked in the...

    Opinion needed for 1st drive home

    Just pay for a tow. It's not worth it one blown brake line one flat tire and you've got a nightmare.

    11r22.5

    Has anybody put modern 11r22.5 dual tires on an m35 ? I know one would have to have rims made I have that part figured out. This is more of a will they fit question. I have a friend who has a truck tire shop so I have an unlimited supply of free used tires that come off of semis

    Spicer 3053 trans question possible problem

    Hey guys here's an update. I got the top back from the tranny guy this morning. He flipped the bad spring in the ball detent arround and now the tranny goes into 2 and 3. The best part is he didn't charge me. I'm going to charge batteries tonight and try and fire her up to see if she will...

    I am having issues with my tranny also. Another member suggested Waterloo specialties for my parts. Don't know if that helps you out

    Long island new york

    Anyone know of any junk yards that may have deuce parts near long island NY ? I know it's a long shot as I know most of them don't have that kinda stuff around here. Ct,nj,ri or mass would work too. Thanks for any leads

    Spicer 3053 trans question possible problem

    Spicer 3053 trans question possible problem

    Thanks for the info. Rustystud Do you have a parts source for rebuild parts? I have an excellent tranny guy but new suppliers are always good to know about. And as for the oil it smells like gear oil. I honestly have no idea I bought truck about a year ago and have not driven it much (lots of...

    Spicer 3053 trans question possible problem

    If you grab second gear with your two fingers and vigorously wiggle it it has some play in it. Not alot but I would say it moves back and forth between 1/32" and 1/16" almost like if a bearing or bushing was soso. Whe n I rotated the gears everything else looked good I shot a video of it but...

    Spicer 3053 trans question possible problem

    When I pulled the top cover off when it was not connected to rest of tranny the cover would not let me put it in 2 or 3. I then removed the set screw on the 2 3 shift form and I was able to shift the cover normally. I put the set screw back and the problem returned. I don't know if this price...
