    Sherman Trans

    Dean, Can you explain please? I thought a Sherman was self contained as far as oiling goes, but thinking about it now it makes sense that they oil from within the tranny compartment. I'm guessing that they refill & drain (from overfull) through the shaft bearings whilst in use?

Dad used to have one that was a single shot, broke open like a shot gun. All...
