    Wow! What a truck!

    RE: the parts from ODIron, the pto is a class 3 leak and then some. I won't risk blowing a transmission, the beast is already hard (read expensive) to fuel, and I don't think much of abusing equipment. I certainly hope everybody is OK at ODIron, but I NEED parts. RE: the muffler, it is an...

    Wow! What a truck!

    Wow! What a truck!

    Oh yeah, it is a 1967 JK M35A2 W/W with an LDT-465-1D. I've already ordered some PTO seals etc. from ODIron, what is up with those guys? Two weeks later I have no parts and no response to emails. I am almost ready to cancel the charge and go elsewhere.

    Wow! What a truck!

    I was interested in an old diesel truck because I was intrigued by the thought of not being dependent on the usual sources for motor fuel. Well, whaddya know, the Army had already thought that whole thing out. Then I found out what all else came with that idea, and I had to have one. Wow...
