    Late Model USAF M35A2C Registry

    I've used Carquest #20-2256. It's identical except sometimes the reservoir is some sort of alloy instead of plastic. Same fitting threads and it's intended for drums with boosters downstream on both circuits.

    Late Model USAF M35A2C Registry

    I'll post it when I get home this weekend. I wish there was a source for the mounting bracket so switching a single to dual was easier.

    Two new toys unimog 404

    The timing chain is tensioned by a hydraulic tensioner inside the timing case that works off oil pressure. Could be sticky or worn. That would be my first guess.

    Two new toys unimog 404

    Student, You're experiencing one of the common problems with the 404 if it sits for a long time. Between the aluminum head, iron block, brass radiator and aluminum pistons, if these trucks sit in damp for very long electrolysis can run rampant inside the cylinders that have open valves. Joe's...

    Two new toys unimog 404

    Hello Johan, Just to add some other vehicles to David's measurement above, I just checked two 404.1s here and they were 7-5/8" and 8-1/8" so looks like you're right in the average. When I used to deal with a lot of these, the 404.1's commonly had transmission problems, especially the fire...

    Two new toys unimog 404

    Hello Johan, I have several 404.1's and nearly all of them with the stock fuel pump will surge at prolonged highway speeds.

    Mystery Deuce ?

    Hello all, Yesterday I picked up two more m-35's from MCLB Barstow and one has me puzzled as to it's identity. It is an earlier deuce and has only one number stamped in the frame rail, "M35002". It's stamped in the same font style as the frame vin normally is. This is also not in the normal...
