    What did you replace the pins with? I was thinking a bolt of the proper diameter might work

    The driver side door on my SEE at some point had a frozen hinge. It was "fixed" by cutting the hinges and leaving stubs. The only problem is that the door will not stay on. So I have been working on driving out the hinge pins to replace them. **** are they in there tight. I have bent punches...

    FLU419 mystery rubber hose

    To be honest it is a bit of a guess. My mog had the same hose connection issue, and I scratched my head about it. It can't be for fluid because there is just one line. Vacuum was all I could come up with. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using Tapatalk

    FLU419 mystery rubber hose

    It is a vacuum hose for the power steering pump reservoir. I think anyway. I think the idea is to get bubbles / froth from circulating. At least that's my story and I'm sticking to it. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using Tapatalk

    I want to give a recommendation for Malone Specialty Inc. located in Mentor Ohio , and especially Larry Smith who works there. A while back I posted about a broken fitting I had on the power steering pump. I scoured the internet and talked to multiple local vendors looking for any thing that...

    Not very good pictures unfortunately. I still have the cab tipped. But here is what I have Yes I know FLU farm recommends running the front ones backward. I will likely do that eventually. But the tires will probably be coming off again when I do the breaks. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A...

    Let us know if the reverse process works as well. I used a cable winch and a near by tree to get mine off, but this looks a lot better. How was the clearance with the boom? I am wondering if a similar process might work for raising and lowering the cab. In that case I would probably attach a...

    Welcome to the group. This is the best thread because it is the one that is most closely monitored. Which is why it is so long. Lots of good info here, but sometimes you have to dig. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using Tapatalk

    They are definitely not wider, if anything they are slightly narrower in the fattest part of the tire. because of the larger lugs they may look a little wider. They may be slightly taller, but I suspect that is because they have new tread. All in all they are pretty similar, just a very...

    I finally got around to mounting the tires I bought back in October. I will post some pictures later, probably tomorrow. I ran into a issue with one of the valves leaking. I did a search on the part number, but did not get a direct match. I was wondering if anybody has replaced the valve stem...

    Power Steering / Broken fitting Well I think I found the issue with the power steering fluid leak. Someone over torqued the fitting and when I tried to remove it the fitting twisted off in the power steering pump. The fitting that broke off is labeled 23 in the above diagram. Parts...

    I certainly have plenty of that, and the thought crossed my mind.

    I dug into my power steering system over the weekend. The power steering fluid had almost all leaked out. I hope that a new supply line hose and clamps will solve that. I have a few questions. First are the any recommendations on what power steering fluid to use? Second does any one know what...

    I would bet there are more out there, but I think they saturated the market and are not selling them for a while. Give it a few months. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using Tapatalk

    New FLU419 Owner, Electrical Woes

    It is a 6T, they are not cheap. I think it is the same as in HMMV and other military vehicles. There are a lot of posts in Steel Soldiers on options. O'Rielly's and NAPA have lead acid batteries look in their commercial battery section.

    I think you got your wires crossed, unless 73m819 is also a Ron. One crazy woman is enough in my life. I will stick with the one I started with. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using Tapatalk
