You should put all of your key video's like this for the deuce's on a disc and sell them. Very helpful.
I just did wheel bearing service X 6 on 1972 AM General M35A2. It was way less complicated then any modern wheel bearing replacement. If you ever replaced bearings on a lawn service trailer you can service Deuce and a half hub bearings.If you have serviced a late model F-350 4WD front axle hub bearing this repair will be a walk in the park. It's fun.
Just as a warning. The cheap Chinese outer wheel seals heat up and alot of people have had issues with them. Regardless if you go by feel or go by the tech specs. I recommend getting oem outer seals. They are made slightly different and have different runner seal and metal thickness. There's threads on steel soldiers about them failing. Also, there's a tool by Western Canadian Rockwell that allows you to put the inner wheel seal pressed on straight and very quickly. It goes over the axle and you use your large socket to slowly tighten over it and it presses on evenly. Some food for thought.
Do these things on the regular on wild land fire trucks. You pretty much do it exactly the same way we do. 👊👍🏻
That brings back bad memories when I did mine. Luckily the person who serviced the brakes didn't know what he was doing. He only had one that was actually working. A friend of mine was able to true up the drums at his shop and the real work started . New wheel cylinders , shoes seals and a ton of bearing grease.
Also for anyone doing this you can get the duals off all in one unit just take off the axle shaft and locknuts and you can slide the two tires off along with the brake drum all in one piece. Also if yer cheap like me ya can use diesel and soft bristle brush to clean things just get a catch pan and give er a good scrub down. 3$ in diesel 😁
A torque multiplier is great for the lug nuts i highly recommend one. Also its nice having good thimbles and lug nuts the ones i took off my junk looked like chewed up pieces of beef jerky 😐 . Also black nitrate gloves are good for these types of jobs. I aint shy about gettin dirty but they do help make things quicker.
Thank you so much for this!!
Awesome video, thanks!
Great video bud keep them coming
Outstanding!!!!!
Great video!
Yes
Thanks bro , Great info ..TTYS
Leaf springs has a ball bearing too
@@victorcarreras2499 yup, trunnion has the same bearings, but most were upgraded with solid bushings in service.
I need a truck
Your outer bearing slides right off, what's the part number because mine get caught on the threads really bad?
Are there also seals in the gear house on each axle that need to be changed ever my duece I did the hub seal change it was stolen after I got it back the hubs where pouring oil a round 2 quarts just parked just want to be sure it don't have any in the axle gears that I might need to change also before using it again
No, just the inner and outer hub seals.
@@tacticalrepair thanks
wonderful
my dream is buy m35 reo and repair .
Do you have a video on how to switch one to super single or back to dual from super single? I looked but maybe I missed it?
No I don't. It is relatively easy though. Just flip the hub around in the brake drum and flip the bearings and races from one side to the other as well.
Thanks for the videos! I want to convert my m35a2 to singles, do you have or can you direct me to a video for the hub flip?
Is it possible to get a seal for more than dust line that will resist or prevent water from entering
Not that just fits in place. There is no real seal pocket on the hub there. You can maybe machine one into the hub if you can find a seal that large to fit.
@@tacticalrepair good to know I plan on buying a duce in the next few years your content is great I love learning all the maintenance I’m gonna need to do. If big mike is out of steering kits where would I find one
@@patrick-ne1um you'll want to order a power steering kit from Tom at www.waterloospecialties.com
Tell him I sent you.
Thanks for the video! I'm going to do rear axle seals on my M35A3, so I found this helpful in giving me an idea of what to expect. I'm a little curious about how you checked the wheel cylinder for leaks though... If you peel the rubber cups/seals back on either side of the wheel cylinder, isn't it going to leak brake fluid anyway? Checking the cylinders like that seems like you're going to damage the seal anyway. Wouldn't it make more sense to press the brake pedal and check for leaks afterward? That said, I visually inspect the backs of each wheel on my truck for brake cylinder leaks while draining the air tanks at the end of every day.
No. The outer seals I peeled back are just dust seals that keep debris out of the cylinders. There are cup seals inside on the other side of the pucks that actually are meant to hold fluid. When they start to leak fluid will build up behind the outer boots, but it shouldn't be there.
What's the grease deal? It's a full floater, like most. Runs off of liquid.
These don't. That outer seal keeps oil out of the axle tube from getting into the bearings, and the inner seal is really just a dust seal. They cannot and will not hold oil. Remember, these were designed in 1947 and only entered production in 1949, well before oil bath wheel bearings were a common thing.
Feel free to check the old Rockwell maintenance manual or any of the military technical manuals for reference if you don't believe me.
@@tacticalrepair I had no idea. I just figured never being in mine. What year did it change?
You could repair your socket using the wrench/coin trick: th-cam.com/video/-I_tRe790o8/w-d-xo.html
Just lay a weld bead down and grind to fit or you could use different thickness scrap metal.
Weather it is a military truck or all way down to 3/4 when ever I see that they used rtv instead of the axle hub flange gasket I cringe.
shit ass LOL Thats my term too!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Appreciate the video, but too much jibber jabber. This should have been an 8 minute video.
I make these videos for people who may have no knowledge on this stuff at all.
