Nailed it. Adjusted the front brakes and found the passenger side was all wacked... took it apart and re-adjusted.. pedal is normal now. Thanks for the assist!

You are probably spot on... when I got this truck it had amazing brakes so in all the years I've never really had to adjust them. I did try the TM method but I may readjust using the .015 method. I did not touch the master cylinder since it had no issues... I'm gunna check it tomorrow when I...

So, last summer I was driving along in my M35A2 and my airpack locked up, causing me to drag my brakes for around 5 miles until I had a place to pull over. I drained the tanks and the brakes released... called a buddy and we slowly got the truck home. I decided it would be a good time to...

All Great Suggestions... Got the arm off. Now have to get the plate under it off... hah.

I suppose I could stretch the boot over it, however on the Passenger Side it was easier to get the installed on the Axle and then add the knuckle. I am also taking the opportunity to remove the knuckles and inspect the bushings and clean everything up. I got one of the cones out and have been...

Hello All, I'm replacing Axle Boots and for the life of me I cannot get the Steering Arm off the Knuckle. I have gotten the Linkage off the Arm.. however using the TM information. Is there a trick I'm not getting :confused: Thanks in Advance -Dave

Is that hot or good?

Hah! Thats how this started :). I saw my hubs running hot. Which brings me to my next question... what do you guys feel is "Hot"? -Regards, Dave

All, Thank you so much for the assistance. I have 3 three hubs by Hand/Feel... and have no play with the tires installed, and I did the last rear with the 50 ft. Lbs. method... they all had the same feeling. For the front, I'm thinking either the 50 ft. Lbs. method or RustyStud's method. If...

Truck: 1968 M35A2 - 16 Spline C240 Rockwell Axles. So the TM says to tighten the locknut until the wheel binds then back off. Well I have tightened it until it doesn’t tighten anymore and the wheel doesn’t bind. I set them by feel... no play in the hub afterwards. Tightened the outer locknut to...

Much appreciate the words of wisdom you speak! In the end, I have bought a new "center" section for the exhaust manifold and will just replace it. I've taken everything off the passenger side of the engine, just waiting on the new parts. I actually intend to begin to put things back together...

I guess I posted too soon... checking here: http://www.goetzprinting.com/images/conversion_table.pdf .375" = 3/8's which would mean the nuts are 3/8's -16... Thank you! -Dave

I did! I'm not sure I see the size of the Hex Nut... I do see the TPI (-16), but not the actual size of the nut. Admittedly, I may be misunderstanding the output. -Dave

All- I'm hoping someone can give me the proper size for the 4 x Nuts and the 2 x Bolts. I snapped all mine when taking the turbo off and the NSN/Part Number is not quite helpful. Anyone out there have the sizes so I can grab them from the store? -Dave

Yeah we will see.. I have to drill some holes in the seat base to get things lined up right. This weekend will be focused some other work, until the Bench Seat Bracket comes in and some other stuff. -Dave

This is what I suspect I was sold as well. You mind sending some pictures my way of your placement and cut? -Dave

Well, at the moment I'm coming from an old box... that was re-covered with less foam (Basically sit on metal). The springer was pretty pricey once shipping was included, I'm hoping to not have to deal with it for a while (Why I bought a NOS one)... what was the experience with yours? -Dave

Dave, I called up and ordered that. Thank you so much! -Dave

Thanks for the information! I was able to get the bench and box out fairly easily... I'll probably replace the bolt hardware to be safe. Now, what does everyone do with the Bench Seat? It uses the box as a "left leg" and I suppose I could cut the right side of the box off and keep it as a...

First off- Many thanks for the assistance with my Turbo question a few weeks ago. Just got it back from the shop all nice and rebuilt. As a part of my "Winter Maintenance", I also ordered a NOS Springer Seat and I pulled out the Box (found out the bench is attached to the box.. more on that in...
