Thanks for the link. Went through it four times. Didn't see the M4 High Speed but there were a few in there that I've had wrenches on. The amphibious looked a little like a DUKW but more modern. I replaced the transfer case in a DUKW. You drop everyting in from the top. If you need a wrench that's on the shop floor you crawl out, go down the ladder and crawl back up and in. It has a zillion U joints. There's a propeller shaft between the tranny and the transfer case, separate drive shafts to each rear axle clear from the transfer case to the axles. Drive shaft from transfer case to front axle, drive shaft to the prop, drive shaft to the winch, and lessee, I think that's about it but added to that are quite a few carrier bearings with U joints at each carrier. If I remember right there are thirty some U joints to keep track of.
Replaced the rod bearings in a MASH ambulance Dodge powerwagon and a couple of M38 Powerwagons too. Did a complete resto on a 1942? WW2 Dodge 1/2 ton Command Car, A 1944 Ford GTB'Burma Jeep',1941 Ford GPW jeep,1944 M-4 Autocar half track and the 1944 High Speed Tractor. I'm not doing anymore for awhile. Too much of my own stuff to catch up with now and I'm not getting any younger. Jim
