That carburetor rebuild manual is very handy. I have one and couldn't have done my rebuild right without it. You guys really did well on finding all that stuff.
We need a transmission rebuild thread so these great pictures and information isn't lost. What should we call the new thread? I'm really interested in seeing what solves the problem on that transmission. I'll be facing this obstacle in the near future.
I hear you on the time and money thing. Both can sure get scarce at times.
Route 66 is 20 or 30 minutes south of me at most. If you guys go through the Tulsa area, let me know and maybe we can meet up for a meal or you can come over, look at the trucks and we'll cook out or go grab...

I looked for that outer seal a while back. Still not having any luck finding new manufacture ones.
Just cross referenced the nut and lock washer. PM sent with a question and links to what I found.
We'll put some pressure on him when the time comes then.
That is a good looking M211 jeffhuey1n. Are those brand new engines? A military hardtop would sure look sharp on it.
I don't like to part anything out either, but the longer I am around these trucks, I have come to realize that some of the rougher trucks would be best used to keep the nicer ones on the road. The one in your pictures in my opinion would be best used as a parts donor. Mainly because the frame...
