I'm working on getting my old m211 running again. For removing the radiator, it looks like all there is to do is unbolt fan shroud and it appears the radiator hangs on bracket which go thru to the front there there are "L" shaped slots. Does it just lift out when the bolts in the slots are...

I'm looking for a windshield frame and glass for my m211. Anyone know what years will interchange? Does it have to be from a M135 or M211, or would ones from like a M35, etc, fit? Thanks

Oh, by the way, if anyone has any driveshafts for sale, I'm looking for driveshafts, D and E, the two coming off the back of the TC. Somebody torched the splined end so they could roll the truck. If I can find the correct splined end, I could reweld in, a new splined end.

Well, looks like everything looks good so far. While under the truck I oiled more of the linkage, while messing with the TC, I noticed the TC lever finally moved up and felt like it engaged in gear. I started the truck and put it gear and it jerked forward a little, but I need to work the...

Thanks for the tips. I do have driveshaft E in. I'll be checking the TC linkage since this truck was sitting for a long time so the linkage is sticking and needing oiling and the TC lever had been sitting in the disengaged position for a long time. Thanks

No, there is one going to the first rear end.

I think I have the REB shift kit.

Heres the story: previous owner removed or torched driveshaft so the truck could be moved. The short drive shaft is in place between transmission and transfer case. The front drive is removed and the driveshaft to the second rear axle is removed. The flat lever on the floor is pulled up...

I have a M211 which is a project and I've never driven it yet. It has one of the rear driveshafts off going to the rear end. I started the truck up but it won't move. I assume the other drive is needed coming from the transfer case. Is this correct? Thanks

I pulled the valve cover and discovered a loose pushrod. I'm surprised to find it wasn't bent. I put it back in and turned the engine by "hand" No stuck valves, everything looked clean. There might be some hope on getting this thing running. In the picture, you can see loose push rod...

I might be interested in a windshield, but don't know if shipping would be reasonable or practical to Houston area.

yeah, Someone bolted and welded some extensions to the end of the frame for the longer bed.

Does anyone know what civilian distributor will fit on the M211 302? My truck came with the distributor missing. I heard one from a 50-53 GM truck will work. I don't mind wiring just to test the engine before I would consider buying the 24V Mil. distributor. Thanks

Truck looks pretty complete except a few things. I do have the gas tank, they took it off to get the truck on the trailer, along with torching the outer wheels (dumbazzs). It is basically missing the distributor, generator, mirrors, and one windshield. I got extra doors though. First...

LOL about the trailer. Long story, but we actually talked the guy hauling it the scrap yard to deliver it to my place. I will have to post the pics of the truck pulling this trailer, but it was a small Mazda truck. I found out later the guy had a bet with somebody else that he could get...
