Pump and cylinder

I want just slightly back high, not level without a load, so I expect to go with 5" not 3". I don't have the perch to remove like you did either GG...much simpler at the axle connection. My truck has 1/4" x 8" x 3" C frame rails so I'll use 1/4" thick. Thus I expect to want 13" x 3" x 1/4"...

Watched them! I can't do video and have just learned to take pictures with an Ipad. First comment is to go to Lennox metal cutting blades with very fine teeth and keep them oil lubricated as much as possible. I also use the 4 1/2" grinder with metal cutting blades a lot...and a smoke...

Yea, I understand about removing all the brakes. You may have to to get it home. That is a lot of trailer, even empty for an Xterra Do you have the Isuzu wheels and tires available that you propose (using single)? I've been advertising, wanting bolster wheels and tires and could...

Would you mind measuring one of them please from the face to the tire outside. I'm wanting to know if they would work dual on a 105 as an alternative to being over-width with the 9.00's pictured above. I didn't know they were the right 6 lug pattern and in reading many posts have not seen them...

Yes red, that roling surface helps pull things over i and it would be possible with a simple front of bed winch mount or a pipe jib. It would certainly work with the LMTV winch. If you go to the link on post 55, at the very end is a boomcrane on a 4x4 that has caught my attention. The winch...

I just want to add that the man who rebuilt my 1545 had to buy a very expensive manual that does include the 1545 specifically, thus all of the settings and adjustments are specified. They should not try a rebuild without the details the manual has in it, according to the man I had do mine, who...

I will help you set up warehousing and shipping at the Grissom ARB in North Indiana. Lots of room, ready access to US 31 and called "crossroads of America". Huge runway (neary unused) for people to fly in and out.

Hey guys, just read the (great) thread and have linked it to my crane winch thread build. https://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?175944-front-winch-crane-on-M35A3. I started with the desire to do a front crane and winch, but have been convinced the front suspension would be very...

Here is a link that I want to add. I came across it and thought it was relevant/good: https://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?79908-Bobbed-Wrecker-concept On another note, could we put a sticky together for making a 4x4 from the 6x6, like Clinto did a dump conversion?

Plans seem to change by the minute. I've come full circle, back to using a shorter, narrower M105 bed for this 4x4 project and not using the LMTV bed. The LMTV is about 5-6" longer than the deuce bed and I want it shorter to the back of the frame. A former donor M105 is about to donate the...

I had to look up "heim" but it appears we are talking about the same thing...a ball and socket. I have some new semi tie rod ends that might also work, but they have the shaft out one side (could go in a bed socket). The only difference heim to the weld-on appears to be the threaded shaft...

It appears it should, if all of the bolts come loose (nuts all the way off) without turning. Beating a frozen drum off is NEVER fun.

If you use the duals, they will end up about the same as the ones above...over width. We could compare the rims from the mount face to the outside of the tire and know for sure. I just measured my overall width yesterday (again). If you are 1.5" less, you may have it made re legal width...

Are they a single wheel or a dual? I take it they are the same 6 bolt pattern.

They say the 16.5 bolster wheels (also M1061) will fit, but I have not tried it yet. Maybe the 16" Isuzu will fit without removing the drums. Please let us know (pictures). I'm working on the possibility to use M35A3 wheels and 14.5 tires on a 105. It would appear to work with the dish in...

TC is Dacco in Cooksville Tenn. now owned by Transtar https://www.facebook.com/DACCOTrans/ A private guy here does my the tranny.

I replied but I'm not sure I answered your question. You buy the seal kit for the 545 and there are two or three additional seals different at the front. You may or may not need the aluminum piston, but they are not too expensive. A supply house can get them with the seal kit and should...

We A3 owners were blessed with the government taking something simple and popular and making it unique and an oddball. It's what a committee does. Using locked torque converters never caught on with the 545, so only the 5600 or so A3's had them. The input shaft from the TC and pump are larger...

Good luck... If I look up the SAE numbers I'll post them up. I'm kind of curious now and would like to know for 6 speed Allison 2500.
