    Looking at m35a2s, Best tire and wheel combo?

    Deuce brake line repair

    Brake line attaches directly to the brake cylinder w/ a banjo fitting. To change the cylinder, the wheel and hub/drum assembly comes off. Not a job for a bad back.

    Question about a "kinda threating" form received in the mail

    It's just a reminder of the restrictions you signed for when the original EUC application was prepared. Do not sell it to a foreign entity.

    Was the inboard bearing intact? Could someone have shimmed the bearing instead of replacing a worn spindle?

    Valence's M66 Gun Ring

    That's the clamp you need, buy it, then dip the clamping section in liquid rubber, keeps the metal from marring/ scratching the gun barrel.
