Mine got stuck as well and did as ndt said, heavily persuaded it with a 3lb shop hammer in the loosening direction while using a large strap wrench to hold the neck extension

I guess a person has to start somewhere, but that is what im talkn bout getting away from, the “corporate” insurance companies and starting a company. Im sure with some of the smart folks on here, if it could be done, it would have already happened. Between the dmv, dl division and insurance...

It seems lts becoming harder to find reasonablelly priced coverage for non show, non for hire, pvt use only. Are the policy underwriters “owned” by providers or outsourced? What would be required to start an insurance company that specializes in MV, providing appropriate policies at a...

What are you currently paying with progressive commercial? I was paying $50ish a month for my 936a2 and then last yr, progressive sent me a letter saying at my nxt renewal, bc the state of tx increased some kind nazi price increase on the insurance companies, my monthly premium would double. I...

There are threads on rebuilding the pcb instead of replacing.

@KN6KXR I ran a 1/4” low psi hyd hose from the case drain port, to the return line elbow at tank. I havent noticed anymore fluid running out of the rope drum (seals are shot) or out of the rgb vent. There might still be a minute amount that enters, but i have not needed to crane but a couple...

Several ways. Some say do it with the engine running so it blows the chips out. Some say use a vacuum and suck the chips while drilling and tapping. Some say pack the flutes with grease to make the chips stick to the grease and wipe frequently. I watch a machinist on yt and he uses cutting...

took what fitting off? Where was the fitting located?

where did you put the fitting that drained back into the tank? If i had the mwo, i could reference it for fitting placement. Im heading to hyd shop now to get an npt to jic then a 90 fitting with a m swivel and fm nipple and get 8’ of -4 low psi hyd line and run it into the tank near the tank...

I cant seem to find the MWO or the thread about the MWo for the crane winch motor case drain MWO. I did use the search engine, probably not using correct key word search, and i looked in the TM section but nothing on the case drain. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I rmvd the boom on the spare 936. I had to beat the hell out of the pin and deformed the grease fitting hole. it had not been greased regularly and the pin was heavily wore at the frame pivot bushed areas. the pin needs to be replaced, as does the frame bushes. it was NOT an easy task getting...

I nvr found an adapter and nvr looked into it any further. If i get additional f/lmtv wheel assemblies, i’ll buy new stems or at a minimum, new grommets.

I manually shift mine. That way i control when the tck shifts into the gear i wantbit in or leave it where i have it.

Something was rmvd. But are you 100% sure it was there before taking it in? If so, raise every bit of he!! with them. Provide them with the part numbers for the items bot installed and tell them to source the parts asap and let you know when they have them in so they can arrange a day/time to...

I personally dont want ctis, or i wouldnt have yarded all ctis components off my tck and tires. But hopefully someone else might find your post very useful if they want to adapt the lmtv wheels to use with their ctis.
