Replace the o ring.

Make sure and keep you fuel shut off lever pulled to prevent someone from starting it and running it through the front of your neighbors house.

You can adjust the pressure with the governor but 120 is about right. If it climbs above 130 and is still climbing without the pop off releasing the pressure then you have a problem.

Just mount a civilian hitch on the back of the truck down below the pintle hook. There lots of threads on here about doing it. I'd go with a Class 5.

Buy yourself a torque multiplier. It'll save yourself a lot of work and stress.

Did you replace the orings when you installed the head?

Put a ratchet strap around it and smash it down. Work it into the tire and take the ratchet strap off. Easy Peazy!!

I have done it but I can’t remember if I wrote much about it. The only part that is difficult and I recommend soaking it a few days in ATF or kroil is getting the star shaped bolt out from the side of the head. It can crack if your not careful. I had to rebuild mine because it was a g pump...

What is everyone’s thoughts on using the plunger from the old head to replace on the new one?

There is a clip that holds the button on that can wear out causing the button to come off and also a truck that has been sitting a while will get gummed up and can cause the button to come off due to sludge. A lot of times it won’t come off unless the hydraulic head is removed though.

You can take it apart and clean it but don’t use anything abrasive. The tolerances inside the hydraulic head are very tight and it will leak if those aren’t kept.

When mine was doing that I replaced the master cylinder and it stopped.

Smack the box with a hammer a couple times and try to start it.

Did he extend the frame too? That’s longer than a 931.

It never hurts to at least try banging on the PCB box a few times with a light hammer first before you try jumping anything. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn’t.
