MLVW Wheel Bearings and Seals

[FrankJames]

Thank you very much Rob.

I'm new to the MLVW and just landed a few of them.

I was curious how much US M35 stuff would cross over.

Looking forward to getting them going for the farm.

Have a great night.

Some of the MLVW items such as the windshield washer bottle/pump are not American M35, but rather American M939. We also use the airshift transfer case, but the Americans used those as well. All of our metric gauges will interchange with the US non-metric equivalents. Most of the sheet metal is the same or similar enough to make it work.



When I did my MLVW about 6 years back, ebay was my best friend. You will find some stuff on Amazon as well, including amazon.ca . Simply do a search on those sites for m35a2.

Perfect. Thanks.

Having a look now.

I believe I have some of the inner and outer seals for them as well as a couple wheel bearings but cant remember if they are inner or outer ones.

I will send you an email or a DM.

I'm going to need a few.

Tks

One thing to watch out for on the MLVW is the use of metric and standard fasteners. The chassis and powertrain, being of US design from the 50s, will all be standard UNC or UNF. But the engine (and I can't remember if the transmission is as well) will be metric. Then, just to add to the confusion, the components of the engine like the compressor or the alternator, will be standard. So always check the head markings if you are going to replace fasteners.

Good advice. Thanks and we'll watch for that !
