No it is a good tranny. Just an older design and it seems not to take well to
sitting.

You could try SECO in Agusta GA. You want a Banjo one

starter, carb, dist, water pump, block

Yup

Not sure

Yup
>You don't happen to know whta the hi-low range reduction ratio is do you?=
CCKW 1.1:1 (underdrive) and 1.94:1 (I think in low)
>The M35's has a 5 speed manual transmission right? Is the high-low

NO the selection is in the xfer (different from the M211) There are 2 different
5 speeds; direct on 4th and direct on 5th (diesel)
>Or do the 211 and M35's have different transfer cases with a hi-lo range

Not that I am aware of
