spotting a 6 inch front axle
the easiest way to spot the 6 inch front axle with the larger brakes from the regular 5 inch front axle is at the hub. you can see the obvious bulge behind the lift ring on the 6 inch. not so obvious is that the wheel base is wider by a couple of inch's.
Soi far I have only seen the bigger 6 inch on FAT's and winch trucks.

Chevrolet master cylinders
Somewhere in the past there had to have been a Wagner/Raybestos/Delco part number for the original master cylinder. Anybody have that information? Might be useful in checking out old NOS stock we sometimes come across.

Seal sizes for transfer case
So I just pulled the seals out of my transfer case and they all appear to be the same size. One was so bad that the oil could have been drained out the gap instead of the drain hole.....
Two of them have a paper gasket behind the plate and they are in bad shape. The input one has a steel gasket in place and no paper ones. Any ideas on sourcing these paper gaskets? The steel one looks fine although I am unsure if it would work without a paper one as well? If it was aluminum or copper I could see it being a crush type but it is definitely steel (has rust). Thoughts on the gaskets? Should I just try to cut my own?

I believe the steel one to be a shim. In the MB-C2 manual there is a very good detailed write up on the servicing and rebuilding of the transfer cases.

Does anyone have a source for the through bolts used on these brass blocks and for the rear brake one? All of mine were rusted junk. Are the front ones the same as the rear ones?

NAPA has them complete with or without washers. You just need to know your thread size (usually 7/16-20 on most of the old North American stuff). Use the term "Banjo" bolt when talking to the (oldest) parts guy. I find the younger parts guys go crosseyed when you use common terms like this.
If you lived closer, I have a bin of about 50 of them out in the shed.
