    M543 Lost Hydraulics

    After pulling the pump, having it inspected (wear plates are scored) decided to replace the pump.

    Dave, I was under the truck yesterday and the shaft is turning all teh way up to where the pump attaches at the center of the crane. How much is a new pump? do you carry rebuilt pumps?

    Overland 5-ton camper with a 20' container (now 40' !)

    Has anyone thought about using a fold up (Hard side or canvas) rear extension on the back of the camper unit. You end up with better departure angle for the length of vehicle and expand by 8'ish when you set up camp. Use it for sleeping and have a full size walk-in bedroom on the back end...
