Hi guys I got a question will the PTO off of a M51 work on a M817? Wasn’t sure if the Multi fuel 5 tons transmission was the same as a 800 series. A friend of mines 817 the PTO broke off the transmission but he has a M51 and was curious if he could swap. I told him I would ask you guys. Thank you
Good morning. I installed the In cab heater in the 818. But I can’t figure out what to power the switch too what number the TMs I looked at didn’t show it. And the old truck wires were cut. I saved what looks like a 2 way splitters from the old truck. I don’t think I can just pick one and hope...
Hi guys after watching some videos and looking at TM, I got a question about my winch I have it installed on my truck M818 minus the drive shaft. I got the engage and drum lock to move. But with the drum lock out out and lever in the engage should the drum move backwards as to wind itself in if...

That’s nasty. I’m getting ready to do all my fluid changes to the 818 after I get my exhaust put back on muffler and lower pip were shot tip was good lol. I peaked in my tanks not sure what’s in it but it’s getting drained and new fuel being added and fixing a smashed fuel line. Along with PS...
The one in the garage runs the other I bought for the winch it has the engine in it but is missing the injector pump and supposedly won’t turn over. But it has more options than the running one lol. So I might be moving some of those options over we will see.
The trucks were delivered this AM. Now it’s time to work first thing I’m going is draining the fuel and replacing with fresh. I will have questions so hopefully you can guys will help.
