    Jerry can holders

    Andy3 came up with a good idea for adding jerry can holders to the rear flaps on a m35a2. And I also made one that fits right over the gas tank per Andy's request. What do y'all think? The final part has a hole for the factory brace to go back on.

    Clutches In the heat

    Yes I came to same conclusion when I pulled the tranny this morning and found no seal. Just a walk back worm gear. It turned out to be a bad bearing.

    I will check but it was noisy when clutch is out (in-gauged) in neutral

    Help she won't stop shaking

    I have read of a cut away special tool rear cover. You adjust your idle screw all the way down and check something with feeler gauge. The tm is pretty vague on the matter and I was trying to find a IP wizard that could shed a little light on this problem.

    Help she won't stop shaking

    Just of idle the governor will bounce and if you don't remove or put the throttle to the floor will chatter the entire drive train. The two springs in back of the IP control this movement there is a supreme balance between these two springs and I am not capable of getting that balance.

    Help she won't stop shaking

    I'll post a link to a you tube video here http://youtu.be/5f0PQNRp2Rs This is a 1970 M35A2 continental G code injection pump. After install I noticed a problem. Just off of idle it starts to bounce from more fuel to less fuel making the drive train go from load to no load. Anyone who has built...

    Rat Deuce project 1

    Yeah mine will sit a little shorter than original height and rear wheel drive but I will be able to get on down the road at highway speeds and pull a trailer. If I can ever get finished...... What's sad is this is only the mock up phase. I still have to tear it back apart to do paint and detail...

    Rat Deuce project 1

    I have plans to pull the engine and disassemble take the block to the machine shop for further analysis. But putting a sleeve in is a viable option. But my plans are to completely rebuild the bottom end.

    Rat Deuce project 1

    All I know right now is if you put piston to the bottom of the bore it will fill up the cylinder if you put the piston to the top of the bore it will put water in the oil.

    Finding a radiator.......

    I'll put up some pictures of the radiator tomorrow it doesn't look all that bad. I think I will install one of my modified bumpers to help with the lower radiator tank. It kind worked out with the lower outlet hose clearing the frame.

    Rat Deuce project 1

    Shifter is outta the way pretty good. The cabs on these trucks were designed kinda small but I'll make the best of it. As far as preempted strikes go. I did the basic home work measured frames and other things. But it definitely has been a learning curve from beginning to the middle where I am...

    Finding a radiator.......

    It's a three row core 27" by 38" now. The deuce will be lighter than the bus and I am running an external trans cooler with this setup should be more than enough.

    Finding a radiator.......

    I did look at early mustang radiators but it would have to be a three row aluminum one and they where 650.00 as well

    Finding a radiator.......

    It will but fan location is different. And I need to squeeze in a air to air inner cooler some where.

    Finding a radiator.......

    I chopped up the mounting flanges on the bus radiator and it fits but hangs down 5 inches below bumper. I'm gonna call radiator shop and see it they can install a shorter core using my tanks.
