yeah for sure. yours are a different size then mine. mine are 3" wide by 2.75" deep....kind weird. so i stopped by grainger and found there equivalent of those ones that are 2lbs a foot. it almost fits like a glove with a little grinding because of the stake pockets being old and out of shape...

so is this what you guys are using for the stake pockets and then offsetting them to the inside of the bed? U Channel 3 foot Base Post - USA Traffic Signs

along with the fixing i upgraded the filters to Cimarron Wesfolks spin on's....really nice units and well worth it and i got a new tank on there, and installed an inline 24v diesel fuel pump to help push the fuel through the 2 micron filters!

well guys she is back together and working like new. Here is some pictures of the carnage i endured in fixing it. was some really interesting things you find in old rigs like this...amazing quality stuff though, they don't build em like this anymore thats for sure. so basically the camshaft...

thanks rich for the info. When i took it out it was packed to the brim with grease, just cleaned the heck out of it so i could see what the heck it was etc and take some pictures for you all.

well back to the one of my original questions about the difficulty im having in moving the dump hoist lever back and forth. Took apart the little green box that pushes the spool back and forth to either raise or lower the dump body, and look what we found. Carnage! Anyone know where i can get a...

so they look pretty much like fence posts to me that offsets them inboard and drill and bolted up. ive seen these type before, pretty sure.

thank you very much sir! on another subject, how are you guys doing youre bed sideboards?

yes thanks. Can you explain to me how the TM's break down by the number? There is 8 manuals with the 209-20 in it? is there an easy way to tell what one youre referring to?

where would the parts breakdown be located?

so i got under the truck again and tried adjusting the tie rods...nothing.....so i un hooked the rods and moved it by hand....still harder than crap to move the lever, took all i had to move it....thinking something is wrong....so i coated the bejusus' out of it with aerokroil...hopin it does...

i will do this, but even when i unhook the linkage and moved the valve body lever by hand its harder than snot to move also i found what appears to be a drain for the hydraulic fluid on the bottom of the tank.... not sure there is a way to drain the valve body or pump without taking it apart

Ok. How much force does it take you to move the lever? On mine it is extremely hard to move.....the pump gears etc etc are lubricated by the hydraulic fluid correct?

Yep something is for sure up with the valve body....I can't feel any positive detents besides off or up....and even unhooking the control rods and moving it by hand didn't make a difference there is simply no positive engagement in the power down....does anyone know about the pump and valve...

what im considering doing is completely unhooking the rods etc and moving them all by hand to see if they are free or bound up. id also like to change the hydraulic fluid and add a filter on the return line. Does one of the TM's show where to drain the system from and which house is what etc etc?

a question for any of you who own one of these rare birds.... Is there a process or something to check to see for proper adjustment of the lever and rods etc? It seems that there is two rods underneath that have threaded adjustments on them. To me its seems that if this was out of adjustment it...

yep something is for sure out of whack..... it will power up all day long, but cant get it to power down following the TM process. When i pull it up out of the Power Up position its really hard and nothing happens, so im going to check all the linkages and go from there.

that makes sense. so if i lock her in it shouldn't spin correct?

so are the brakes/bearings etc the same as the m105? everything i have read is conflicting.. are the m200 brakes unique to the trailer or are they off any truck?
