AGREED! Bump and super easy! -- Even though I was a few days late... Dave

G. (and other rivit experts!), After a few trials (and a couple failures!), I finally worked out a method that worked out pretty well. I worked a small spacer on the head side of the rivit and the hand tool G. referenced above in an arbor press. I think it worked out pretty well. By the time...

Not with a pic! I guess we can toast a frosty beverage when I drop off that 50 bucks I owe you (in exchange for the other running board)! Dave

Let's see if I can beat Joe to it this time... ;) TM 9-2320-209-20-3-4 pg 19-129 shows a couple good shots. Dave

G, Thanks for the update, and sorry about the international CC problems! If I have this correct, the same hand clinching tool you mentioned in the previous post (the HT-171 from Hanson) will work with the "correct" 7-6, but not the 8-9. Correct? Is the clinching tool defined by the shank...

Good Timing on this thread! I just ordered a set of linings from Eastern Surplus. Saturn was out of stock and didn't suggest when they would restock. I also ordered the rivet setting tool referenced here by Gerhard... http://www.steelsoldiers.com/deuce/33570-brake-shoes.html#post362306 I...

Warren, TNJ Murray shows the NSN you list as a starter that crosses to a MMS53011-2 ( about three quarters of the way down the page here ---> Cross Reference Guide for M35 Military Vehicles - TNJMurray) That NSN number doesn't match the numbers listed in either M35 part manuals... The M35A2...

Seabeeut, I always have to have "soldier B" (better known as my gorgeous wife... ;) ) help out. She usually responds with "Didn't we JUST do that a month ago?!?!?" One person can hold the 3 and 8 o'clock positions, while the other holds 12 o'clock and tightens the clamp. It really is a...

G, Now that you say something, I may have pulled the flange with a puller and PB Blaster. The PTO is now mounted on the truck, but I don't see any impact marks on the flange. I think I was remembering beating the snot out of the woodruff key that was between the flange and the shaft (after...

Joe, I think I had the whole housing in the Vise with the cover side (opposite transmission mount flange) facing up. That barely gave me enough to swing and catch the flange on the adapter. I swiped a pic that Gringeltaube had posted and put an arrow on it showing the swing direction. Don't...

I searched "jerry can strap" on ebay. That returned a number of strap / bracket combos, and a couple strap only sales.... Dave

Mine took a pretty BFH to get loose.... Don't be afraid to hit it! By the way, if you run into needing any internal parts, I might have some spares around. I'll check up with you sometime next week before I come down for those running boards and windshields. Dave

Epic thread! And it will only get better! I noticed your travel route, and I am a few miles south of Indianapolis... I will shoot you a PM with my cell number just in case anything happens close to Indy. Good Luck and God Bless! Dave

Zout, Like these? If so, they are pretty easy to come by on Ebay.... If not, I'm interested in more detail about what you are looking for! Dave

Yikes! Thank the good Lord you are still with us! Good luck with the rebuild / salvage. There are still lots of good parts on it... but maybe not enough to fix the damage. "When one door closes another door opens; but we so often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door, that we...

uhhh, Gimpy.... Search results die fairly quickly after the search is performed! Maybe clue us into the search terms? Thanks, Dave

Every Cummins Straight 6 (that I am aware of...) fires like this: 15 is too young, 36 is too old, 24 is just right 1-5-3-6-2-4 Dave

They also show you have pretty good taste in beer! I liked the Amish Four Grain the best, but the milk stout was a close second... :beer: Dave

Good reference there! I found this thread http://www.steelsoldiers.com/deuce/51479-m35a2s-vietnam-what-year.html , in which Katahdin posted this video... Check it out at 1:54 Dave

I can FIND a spare if you'll tensile test it... :grd:
