    Mid Winch Install on M818

    I worked on this a little today. Made the mount for the hydraulic motor to drive the winch. Put the PTO on a few days ago. I think I'm going to try to find a rear accessory drive to put the pump at the rear. More room toward the rear. Anyone have one? I tried to top off the gear oil and found...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    I wasn't sure of the factory 5 ton winch PTO could be taken apart and reversed. I searched and only found deuce ptos being reversed. The rear output add on is as much $$ as a new PTO. There is a lot more room toward the rear though.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Finally put the PTO on the trans. Sure do wish it faced rear. Not a lot of room to mount the hydraulic pump. Maybe I'll get the rear winch done this year!

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Careful cutting them off while coasting, the steering is near non existent when the power steering pump isn't pumping.

    That's Cool. What kind of mount is that? I mount mine over the windshield but would like to make something like you have there.

    PA - Fall 2016 Rausch Creek Steel Soldiers Rally

    I put this rally on the calendar but I still have to run it by the boss! I also still need to replace my axle boots so I can wheel the truck. The one tore on the way to the spring rally so I didn't take it wheeling. Hopefully the weather is better than the spring rally!

    M348 Camper conversion

    Anyone know where to get door seals? I'd like to replace them before I install flooring. Haven't had much luck. It's a 5/8" bulb seal for a t-track like a garage door and has rubber rope like soft top cord inside. Shop vans look different in the tm. Different pn. Sent from my SPH-L710 using...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Thanks. It looks better in pictures than in person! The whole truck could use a coat of paint. That was the town of East Berlin Pa. I live a few miles south of there in Hanover. If you're ever in the area, stop by the VFW, they have an F14 and a M60! Also let me know we'll grab grab a beer or...
