Are you in low range ?
It won't go into reverse if you're in low range ...
It also won't go into reverse if it THINKS you're in low range, in other words if the lockout pieces that were junky when they were made but now have 17 coats of paint and rust on them are malfunctioning or stuck, it...
I can't even fathom in getting an insurance company involved in something like this when parts for these trucks are cheap and plentiful and they are easy to work on .
For many years I have said that trickle chargers kill batteries I've seen it and they just do it even when they don't blow up...
From what I can see it looks like you're showing your front drive line coming off the front of your T-case and heading to your front axle
There is another style of PTO that is integrated into the transfer case that supplies power to the to the rear of the truck where the water pump sits on a...
Started having trouble with State Farm about the same time the other Jake took over, I'm sure it's just a coincidence, but either way they were doing less for me and charging more and they wouldn't insure my Deuce water truck for any reason in the world .
So after a bit I dumped them and went...
Right, so here is what I'm trying to say, according to that dipstick, which "probably" is the right dipstick for the truck, you're at the full mark .
Let some oil out to the add Mark and see if it makes any difference, I have seen the wrong dipstick in engines before and I have seen engines...
20" x 39.75"
That's the measurement of the expanded metal mesh that covers the front, if you need more than that or clear out to the headlights or whatever just holler I've got one sitting here (obviously)
This truck is an M931A2 but I spect its the same

Have you had the truck a long time and this is something that's recently developed ?
Drain your oil down to the add mark on the dipstick (it won't hurt anything they have plenty of oil) and see if it makes any difference
Have no idea how much a shop would charge you to change a rear main seal...
And if that doesn't work get a bigger hammer !
Applying a moderate amount of heat with a propane torch isn't going to hurt anything and it definitely will help, sounds like you need a couple pair of the big channel locks
There is no such thing as what you're describing on an old Deuce, I can't think of a reason in a world why anyone would want or need it .
Not one time have I ever tried to start my deuce while It was running 😄
So, I was thinking ...
Possibly a minty feller could undo the main feed line from the master, apply an air hose with air pressure, open the bleeders, or better yet just remove them, and blow out all of anything that is in the system except for air itself .
Do the rear section seperate from the...
Also if you're in a pinch and just needed to get it from the back 40 up to your shop, I have used an expendable screwdriver before heated it up smeared the plastic around and sealed the hole .
Why ?
I'm sure this has been covered, abstractly, several times over the last 20 years, so if you know why, can you break it down for me, please ?
Because I'm not convinced .
When you go to change that primary fuel filter/water separator and everything disintegrates, get this filter boss and a filter like this one and be done with that old thing, the original fuel lines hook right up to this boss
The locker does not know what transmission is in front of it, it's YOUR driving technique that allows it to go smoothly through a corner, or all Herky jerky .
If your truck is going to spend most of its life on asphalt, then take the locker out of the rear, and lock up the front instead with...
I inadvertently discovered that you can see that unbelievably annoying buzzer from the passenger floor, it has one wire, it goes straight up to the bottom of the buzzer .
It's pretty much in the center of the firewall, wire came off pretty easy, absolutely by far the best mod I ever made to my...
