Are you dynoing the engine... I mean you cannot tell a 1-10% power loss usually in normal driving.

Did someone post these? I haven't seem them??? If you are talking about the PDF I posted that is the Oshkosh 55000 series transfer case and I know that is locked that is why I posted it. I have never seen a schematic in any manual for the M35 that indicated the transfer case is locked in any way.

I've watched you guys run around in circles about the multi-fuel aspect of the engine spewing misinformation like it is manna from heaven. I want to see proof that the system is locked because from understanding the transfer case is essential the same as the sprag unit with a different...

Well I've never seen any schematic of the air-shift model. But what I've been told is that it doesn't lock up. And from watching the truck in action I would agree that it possible doesn't lock up. Which is what I have, but if it is locked up great. Still doesn't matter I want to put about...

Water-Injection is better.

I'm looking to top out about 65mph and cruise at 55mph so I actually want to put extra torsion bars on the rear tandems so I maintain as much contact with the road as possible. I knew they made a 7 spd at one point but I cannot seem to find any information on it. I think the DT466 is the...

I've never read any manual that says the T-136-27 has anything more than disconnect for the front axle that is air-operated. I'll believe you and that is good to know but it still won't help since I want to double the torque rating almost. So it has to go. But It was my understanding that...

Are they air-lockers or just standard mechanical lockers?

Yeah mud is not your friend. But, lets face it when you have a truck like a M35A2 you want to play in the mud, sand, water, and other nasty obstacles... So I want a truck that has positive traction between all the wheels no matter how many maybe off the ground.

I've driven a Unimog 500 series truck through some serious mud in its crawl gears. Sure some mud you want speed to go through, but I'm thinking mud about 10-12 inches deep on a trail where the terrain is up and down hills. Where I'm from in New York we get mud, not mud like they have in...

Yeah I was thinking of Hamlet when I wrote the post.

If you can lock up the Transfer Case then I want it on my truck. I want the drive train so locked up that it attempts to move the Earth in the direction I drive.

Well of course in Vietnam you need a heater... That makes sense.

Well the sprag only actuates when the rear axles slip. So if the power were equally divided between the front and rear axles of the transfer case then front wheels wouldn be always engaged. The unit would always think the rear is slipping since the power is being equally divided between the...

Yeah but it is not enough to divide power equally between the left and right if the front is slipping then only the rear is pushing. You need the rear and front to have equal power as well. This is to me is the most important factor of why the Kraz 255b is so impressive, it not only locks the...

I've never read anywhere that the power is a true 50/50 split; and considering how the sprag type unit worked with dividing the power only when the rear wheels slipped that leads me to believe that is not locked at all. I think system is open just like the diffs. Besides the Oshkosh 55000...

I think I want to put on in my M35... A filter and coolant heater wouldn't be bad at all.

One thing that always has amazed me about the M35 series trucks are the lack of locking differentials in both the axles and the transfer case. It seems to me that if you going to design a truck for serious off road work you want to make sure that power is even distributed between the front...

I bought my truck in Drexel Gardens IN and it has no heater, this guy is in Mississippi and he's got a heater... I'm jealous. Where did you buy the truck from on GL? As I've stated I got mine in Indiana which is really really close to my home in Louisville. Well not that close 100 miles. But I...

Sprag type transfer case ???
