    Brakes Deuce what is wrong with this picture

    The only thing that's truly wrong is the spring placement. The adjusters were either turned the wrong way or you turned them farther than they needed to go and they "started over". If I were you, I'd put at least one new shoe, maybe both. I would move the return spring to the correct...

    Wow, these days with so many threads, that's an accomplishment. When I joined the forum, I kept a file on the desktop and each night I'd read a few pages and keep score of what I'd read. It took a few weeks but eventually I had read everything. That's a big part of how I'm able to find...

    m35a3 winch ops issues for newbie

    Aright, that was quick. After going back over the system in the tm, I realized there was another valve in the system. This allows the fluid to flow. It can be seen as the culprit in this thread: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?92351-winch-M35A3 After soaking it and freeing it...

    m35a3 winch ops issues for newbie

    I think I have a dead PTO, I want a second opinion. First: M35A3 w/w, obviously. Engage the winch air valve lever (18 ) on the shift tower, unlock winch drum, engage winch. Move the winch air control valve lever to the spool out or in position and you can hear air move and the shaft in the...

    It's not a bad job, just time consuming. I have done a bunch, here's the first one I did: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?11295-All-this-for-a-freeze-plug-! There are a few things that are annoying. The intake manifold nuts can only be removed with an open end wrench. You need...

    VA DOT Military Vehicles and HOAs "Junk Vehicles"

    Because they want to be able to tell their next door neighbor not to hang a dead deer or a small block Chevy out of a tree and leave them there for 6 months.

    wiper blades

    This is a very good conversion but I have slung a few blades off the arms. In the future, I am going to put a small machine screw and nut in place to hold the blade to the arm. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?46120-Civy-Wipers...

    Front axle brake shoes wear out faster than rear axle brake shoes?

    This is why when you stand up on the brake pedal in an all drum brake equipped 383 Road Runner or 396 Chevelle, the front rolls and the rear smokes!

    Front axle brake shoes wear out faster than rear axle brake shoes?

    Proportioning valves are typically found on vehicles with front or all-disc brake systems. I have never encountered a vehicle with 4-wheel (or 6-wheel) drums that had a proportioning valve. I've owned all sorts of 1950's, 1960's and 1970's Mopar and Chevy vehicles and I've wrenched on hundred...

    New member from Atlanta GA - looking for MV to pull a single car trailer

    So, I've had Mules, Jeeps, Deuces, CUCVs and even a 5-ton. And I loved 'em all (except the CUCVs rofl). But you'd be so much better off buying a used Cummins Dually. Excluding Mules and Jeeps for obvious reasons, you come to CUCVs. 1009's won't cut it because they're half-tons and too short...

    Keyed ignition switch for M35A2, blah blah blah

    I guess it depends upon what you're after: Is the purpose of the keyed switch to keep people from turning on the electrical system, or to keep someone from starting it? On the main power switch, constant power is fed to A and C. When you turn the switch, power is sent to B and D. B & D sent...
