Got booster back in, and worked a little more on parking brake. Got springs on, pita. Need to work on the cable hold down-either grabbed wrong bolt, or threads are messed up. Really hard to see. Installed the steering box. Pretty easy, except to line up bolt holes through frame. Also should be...

White(or some other company producing same design) for WWII http://olive-drab.com/idphoto/id_photos_corbitt_white_ww2_6ton.php some info and pics, Most the Hercules 6 cylinder, and had a 4 speed with 2 speed transfer

Got the end piece for the air-pack(Thank you Greg) so finished that, little annoying, got the end gasket on, was sliding it onto the studs-Snap! broke the gasket, so I used some rtv- nasty stuff, try to avoid using it except as a last resort. finally assembled(this is pretty much how it looked...

comparing the three "different" engines is like comparing 3 identical 1999 Honda Civics, except they were all assembled at separate plants

I got parking brake shoes in, cable and springs will be next, need to get a replacement bolt for the cable hold down. started on drivers side axle, got seal and retainer in with thrust washer, washed all the hardware...but that was as far as I got. I ended up going for a ride with the parents...

I would plan your first fuel stop for a 5MPG mark(After an initial fill up) then a quick calculation should be able to tell you how far you can go on a gallon. If I have to base it on distance, I always subtract 10% of distance I could travel. and I base travel distance on 4 gallons less a...

hey blinker fluid works; True story, my brother had a 99 GMC diesel one of the front blinker housings was on upside down, so the drain hole was at the top, to it would remain about 3/4 filled with water. anyways we flipped the housing one day and the blinker stopped working, tried a little...

rebuilt almost whole air pack, got fluid side done, still on search for cover, emailed Memphis, will see tomorrow if they can supply, if not, I'll get it welded, Thought I might have had a line on one here in NH, but from pics looks like the aluminum corrosion was starting to kick in. Guy also...

Just to throw my 2 cents into this mix, Rusty has a good point. But I always find Barrman's posts well informative, and because he is human; showing that even something as simple as checking the cleanliness of the Fuel tank can be overlooked especially when he is not the only driver. on that...

So tore down air pack, found this in first two minutes, kind of fell apart, breaks look old, as I had to pry a piece off cause it was stuck to the stud Will post want ad shortly

Got Master in, reused old boot for push-rod, new one was soft at the base(at master) but started cracking at the other end, the original/old one was still pliable and had no cracks yet. will start on rebuilding Air Pack next, as well as working on placing the remote reservoir-got the fitting...

just did some measuring myself, with two seals, the second seal would only be in halfway(not including chamfer portion), so maybe with some RTV, but probably not Thanks, must have missed that, read that thread a few times to get dimensions and reading up on the Cunifer Line(which I am forgoing...

well, the retainer was cracked as well, my dad spotted it, I thought it was just a machined groove, as the surface of the retainer is machined, and the crack almost followed one of those grooves. so definitely on the search, My Brother works parts for a Mack Service center, so he is going to try...

Thanks, those are the numbers I gave him, my parts books are dated 1955, not a single multi-fuel parts that I have seen yet

well, didn't get to far today, assembled passenger side, had a mishap(read about here,http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?140103-Knuckle-Dilemma-1952-M35) turns out the thrust washer got tangled between axle shaft and retainer, bent retainer. axle shaft looks fine, thrust washer looks...

well I royally screwed up the retainer, went to go pop it out, what? no seal?, sitting in the tube...ok, pop it out, what I thought was a knick, is well, two knicks from where the thrust washer sat up against it. so in the first pic(if it loads as I see it) you can see the impression on the...

well, it was that thrust washer, backwards, and looks like it wasn't in place correctly, got a decent knick in the retainer now, so have to pull that out. Any Part numbers I could run to Autozone for the axle seal? know I saw a thread with a number, but can't find it.. and didn't see it listed...

didn't see your post till I posted, but the washer came out with the shaft, it is installed...but maybe backwards, I am looking at your pic, I think I sent the bevel out not in, have to look at the other retainer, thrust washer is still on the drivers retainer, so I'll look at that as well when...

Kind of? I have the outer Knuckle Portion on the inner Knuckle, rotated on the king pins fine, installed axle-shaft, seemed to seat fine, could rotate it fine, loaded it up with grease(ball joints, not U-joint style) then installed the spindle portion( where the wheel bearings would sit) and...

So, went about getting my knuckles all put together, cleaned and inspected everything, installed the spindle, hub backing plate, and all of a sudden, no movement, can't turn the knuckle, can't even spin the axle. ?? Well tore it all back down(and realized that my "grade 8" nuts I bought are...
