    Lennon's M109 Camper

    I am kind of confused by the floorplan. Does the bed slide forward into the clearspace by the kitchen, or is the door blocked full time?

    Anybody ever put a hydraulic slave cylinder on a Spicer 305XX?

    AHHH makes more sense now. I would whack the linkage then on the pedal side and make the remaing stub a mount for a CNC style slave. You should be able to adapt it to your current peddal assy. I use those slaves for lots of different style clutches.

    Anybody ever put a hydraulic slave cylinder on a Spicer 305XX?

    Is your clutch really that hard to push? Has the cross shaft been greased this milenia? Mine is softer than my 2002 Dodge cummins with a hydraulic clutch. If I had to do it I would buy a slave from CNC or any others that have the pedal and hyd res all in one like the VW/sand rail comunity...

    Inexpensive camper/utiliy box for m35a2

    here is an idea for the gap between the cab and the camper you could mount 2 spares on something similar to the 5 ton rack. You would still keep the storage below that rack. you then could ditch the spare tire carrier and mount another fuel tank there giving 100 gallons of fuel. and you could...

    M35A2 Recovery in So-Cal

    For the oil leak try adding a few qts of type "F" transmission fluid it has seal conditoners. It has stopped a few weeping rear main leaks for me in the past and cured completly the 109 we brought back from FT Riley to WA. When you make it back to Tacoma give me a shout I live in Bremerton.

    Budd nut from ****

    At the truck shop where I worked as a kid when the impact was stalling out we used to hit the socket with a 5 pound sledge (AKA Thor) after about 3-5 whacks the nuts always zipped off sometimes throwing sparks as then went. We went with the copper antiseze instead of the molly crap, copper...
