    Spicer 3053 Shifter Shaft Cover

    So what started as a wiring job ended as three jobs, which I'll be documenting as I go. This one is to fix a shifting issue which is still unknown between the shifter shaft, the 4-5 shift lever, and probably the clutch. Starting here I'm using TM 9-2520-246-34-1 as reference and hoping for the...

    Fuel lift pump on auxiliary switch

    My lift pump hasn't worked since I got the truck, not sure why yet, but my guess is it's something to do with the keyed ignition wiring. My plan is to take wire 76 off of where it usually gets power and move it to my switch panel, giving me true control of the pump. If I find my pump is...

    Hydraulic Head Rebuild

    Looks like it's my turn guys. When under pressure it seeps, not terribly but enough to hit the ground so in we go. I'll be studying the rebuild threads and taking all the advice anyone cares to give, and of course, posting progress pics. Taker easy!

    Brake pedal return spring is AWOL

    Read the tm on how to replace it, question I have is since the pedal has been minutely engaged since she's been parked, are there any issues I should look for? I bled the air system completely before parking, and it's only been a week or so she's been sitting. TIA

    MI How I did it

    So since in my state you don't need a special license for the M44, I transferred my regular pickup truck policy to my Kaiser, from my Ford. Full coverage, emergency roadside assistance, all the bells, State Farm, 1600 a year. Yeah, it's a little pricey, but for not having to deal with the...

    Cold to Warm idle C turbo

    Tidbit of info for newbies or anyone who doesn't know, our engines may not reach operating temp in cold weather, so how do you know if its warm enough to run safely? Well I can't speak for all of us, but my turbo unit told me. After sitting for a week, I went out, flipped the battery switch, did...

    Is it bad for us or just the 5 tons? Apologies if this is redundant, my search came up empty

    Random boxes of parts

    Amongst the oohs and aaahs I found a couple things I'm unsure of, no idea what the larger clasps are for and i didn't know they made hood clasps with brass caps. Also found a speedometer showing 5 miles on the odometer 👍. Hoping someone can tell me what the latches are and catch me up on brass...

    The right to travel

    I Understand completely if this post gets removed, it's on the fringe of the TOU, but this has to be said. It seems like a lot of us are fighting to get these vehicles titled, insured, and down the road, and why? What ever happened to the constitutional right to travel uninhibited and...

    Fuel storage and filtering

    Hello all, had an idea for storage and filtering, wanna run it by some of you first before i get too carried away. I plan on cleaning out a 90gal marine gas tank and using it as my own fuel fill station, filling it with wmo and atf, and mixing that mixture 75/25 waste fuel to pump diesel. I have...

    Wheels

    Hello all, thinking about doing wheels and tires this spring, thought about the mrap wheels but I want to keep the duals. I found a couple build your own kits, but I'm nowhere near skilled enough with a welder. Are there some hidden wheel sites that I'm missing, or are my options that limited?

    Anyone have the TM (if one exists) for the proper battery terminal/battery removal process for the A2? I have searched my manual and many threads on here, plus web, and nothing.

    12v Parallel System

    Hello all, I purchased a 69 Kaiser m35a2 with a 12v alternator set up in parallel with the 24v generator and system, and I know it's installed improperly. Throughout this thread I will be assessing and documenting exactly what is installed improperly and how I remedied the problem. So far the...

    Mi newb

    Hello all, the time finally came, after 12 years, an M35 was deemed "practical", purchased, and is proving to be my greatest teacher. She's a 69 kaiser m35a2 w/w, and probably the most fun out of anything I've driven, and that's saying a lot. Keep em live, keep em rolling!!!!
