Does anyone know how to remove the drive coupler off the engine shaft ? This is the one that has a flexible coupling between the alternator and engine. I've tried a puller and slide hammer and nothing budges this thing ! I of course removed the two set screws and still nothing. It looks like the...
My transmission developed a problem last week. I was driving up a hill when I lost second gear. I had to drive the truck home in first gear. So this weekend I cleaned up my work bench and removed the transmission. I ruined eight U-joint strap bolts. I had previously Loctited them in and the...
Since I have the truck up on stands working on the front springs I thought I would take this opportunity to fix some electrical problems and also install these extra armored lights I got for my deuce. I ordered some PAR36 12volt spotlights and installed them in the lights. Since my bumper is not...
I have had an "on again-off again" problem with my turn signals for some time now.
The light will not go off and sometimes it will not work. Just last month I had the whole front clip off trying to find the problem. I even installed extra grounds all over the place with 10 gauge wires going...
I was working on my front brakes this week and I found my passenger side spring pack had a leaf twisted out about 1" . So I got the 3Ib hammer out and beat it back inline. It moved way to easy, so I tried to tighten the bolts and "U" bolts. The inner Bolts would not tighten at all, so I decided...
I don't know if this is the right place to post this but I'll give it a try here.
Someone recently asked me if I towed a regular truck with my deuce and how did I do it. I said yes, and here is what I used. The first couple of pictures show the original tow bar I made to bring home my first...
I was asked to repost my heater modifications and how I ran my hoses.
I don't have all my pictures as most are still on the old computer that crashed (motherboard went out) . These should show how I made up the shorter box.
Basically unbolted everything and then cut-off about 4" off the end that...
Here's some pictures of my Winch and Bumper Project. I had the inner sections formed at a machine shop and then cut out some 1/4" plate for the side reinforcements. The bolts are 1/2" grade 8 fine thread Frame (Flanged) bolts with Flanged Stover (locking) nuts, and 5/8" grade 8 fine thread Frame...
I have rebuilt TH400 transmissions for race and hard 4 wheeling for over 38 years now. I decided to post some of my tricks and tips I learned during that time .
Does anyone know who sells the air-filter for the M35A3 besides the surplus dealers who want over $100.00 each for the filter ? I think I found a filter that might fit from WIX that sells for $60.00 ea but I would really like to use the original if at all possible.
Another winter project I've been working on is a auxiliary heater for the passenger side. Like my main heater it is shortened and will be mounted where the air filter is now. I recently bought a M35A3 air-filter housing which I will be installing later on. I still need the blower motor. I plan...
I've been working on a Fording project for my deuce since summer ended. I already have all the differentials and transfer-case and transmission connected with a 1/4" DOT hoses up to the engine firewall. Now I'm installing the heart of the project the control unit. It has a 0 to 3 PSI gauge, low...
Does anyone know who sells parts for the Wisconsin Robin engine WRD1-270 used in the 30D36R generators ? I want to get a spare fuel injector and fuel pump. I have looked for a couple of days now and all I find is that the parts are discontinued.
Thanks for any help.
I'm in the process of cleaning and checking all my injectors and I will need to replace all the copper seals and gaskets. Does anyone know who has the best deal on MEP-002A and MEP-003A injector gaskets ? Also does anyone know who sells the
AMBAC "TSE 773" (NSN#2910-00-448-0197) injector...
I finally installed my fuel safety shut-off valve. This is for "just in case" when I'm messing with the injection pump settings. Don't want any run away engines here.
I totally forgot I was that I was going to post my dual fuel install from this last summer. My main computor crashed (motherboard capacitors blew) so I did not have access to all my pictures. I went out and took some more today. I don't have all the little install pictures I took yet but these...
I needed to drain the fuel tank on my M1035 truck. So I made up this little pump. The valve on the side selects from filtered fuel to non-filtered fuel. The extra hole by the valve was a mistake. The fittings on the end are "quick disconnects" from a motorcycle. I still need to install the...
This is the finished reconnection box. The diagram is how I connect the main generator cables to the TB2 buss bar. This is a "double Delta" configuration allowing the maximum use of the generators potential. To avoid confusion I used the actual cable numbers in the diagram instead of "T1 T2 T3...
Has anyone totally gutted the circuitry in a MEP-016D to make it a 240V single phase unit only ? After I finish converting my MEP-003A I will be going after my MEP-016D. It would be nice to have an initial direction to go with instead of starting from scratch. I know this unit has a different...
