According to my parts manuals, there are two different versions of the
adapter, with different gear ratios. How do I determine which one I
should order?
As long as I'm here, I have a few miscellaneous quetions:
* Are the oil filter elements disposable or are they clean-and-reuse
types?
* How do I determine what type of brake fluid is in the truck, so I
don't mix it with something incompatible?
* Are there any common civilian replacements for any of the filters
(oil, fuel, air, etc), which I might be able to get at the local Pep
Boys?
* There was an article in the last Military Vehicles magazine about
do-it-yourself split-ring wheel mounting. Am I crazy to consider
this?
* If the answer to the above question is "no", would an old-fashioned
mechanical bead breaker work OK on a split-ring rim? One of my pilot
friends at the airport where my truck lives has one for his airplane
tires, and I've never had good aim with a hammer... I figure I'd
probably wreck the rim with a tire hammer!
* Does anybody have an original recent-printing original lube order
for the M44-series trucks which they want to sell me? I ordered one as
part of a big (and expensive!) order from NTIS, but it hasn't showed
up yet. Manuals stopped showing up a few weeks ago, so I've given up
on them actually sending it to me.
Thanks in advance for any advice!
