    CAT 7155 Manifold rebuild

    Thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge and take the photos. Im as dumb as a sack of hammers when it comes to trying to 'visualize' from the written word alone! The manufacturers should be required to be Members of this site. They could learn a lot about effective presentation prior...

    My new M220 soon to be camper

    My GMC, a little update

    Hey Brother, Great talking with you on the phone the other day. Like I said You Have a set of Titanium Balls to just dive in and get it done! When all is together and you have a spare evening would you be able to create a journal with your tech info/sources for the conversion? I would even...

    M135 CDN W/W Coming Home Soon

    Good solid advice guys. The wheel cylinders are 1 3/8 ", we ran out of usable light and time to show the cleaning and maintenance of the drums and adjusters. Keeping track of the little cork wedge (too tired to look up the actual name at the moment) is also important. We used some of Gord's...

    M135 CDN W/W Coming Home Soon

    The Wheel Cylinders were in vaccum sealed packages with June 1982 printed within. The Military external packaging was labelled 1983. A couple more photos of pulling out the axles and getting ready for cylinder removal and replacement. Oh yeah: Make sure if you've never done this before to...

    M135 CDN W/W Coming Home Soon

    Here's a perfect example of Gord illustrating 'There is no such thing as Too Much Leverage' when losening lug nuts.

    M135 CDN W/W Coming Home Soon

    We pulled all the drums. Found a couple in the rear were dragging a bit, the wheel cylinders were leaking. The wheel cylinders did not look to be in that bad of shape externally. They don't like to be sitting for extended period without being used. I decided to replace all of them. Ralph at...
