    M936A2 crane hydraulic winch

    M246 in the busted hydraulic hose club

    Thank you for the correction in size. Im now having to look at a conversion chart every time for some reason. I guess i kicked off the hyd line sizing penguins off the iceberg to make room for rivet sizing penguins.

    M246 in the busted hydraulic hose club

    If you dont have a parts manual for that tck, you can measure the o/d of the line or take one of each fitting the metal lines connect to, and have the hyd shop match the fitting with the appropriate size line. I dont remember the - number and sizing, but i think a -10 line is a 3/4” line, -8 is...

    Leaking 2pc rims

    I actually have a rim that the o-ring shield is not round anymore. Some pvt or depot worker must have jammed something between the bead lock ring and the rim half, for whatever reason, bending the crap out of it. I came across that issue on my 7th tire of the day, replacing the fmtv oem valve...

    Would you pull 5 ton with this setup??

    If you can stop, using the pull vehicle and towed vehicle brake, sure. But only for a short (20 miles or less) distance and had no other choice at that specific time. Iv pulled 34,400 lbs, 10,400 lbs over loaded with my 1tn dually. Was only going 4 miles and decided to take the chance. Was it...

    Front winch tensioning

    According to the tm, what you are describing, sounds like the load holding brake. Is the brake directly inline with the motor/input shaft? If so, according to the tm, it is the load holding brake. I need to order some brake material from mcmast carr and replace it. When i opened the cover, the...

    YERMO/DOYLE/CALI SHIPPING BE ADVISED!!

    (Solved) M923A2 Right rear brakes grabbing

    As discussed during our call, it was due to me plumbing the new svc/emerg chamber like the oem chamber. I had to plug one port on the svc side instead of plumbing in to block atop of the axle. I would agree with the diaphragms being bad, if i hadnt replaced the svc/emerg chamber with a nib...

    I cant remember which youtubers it was, but they were having a very similar issue. One ended up being, as fuzzytoaster said, unloader valve, and the other guy, it was a check valve in the dryer. One of the guys started at the dryer, pressure checking from the dryer inlet port, working his way...
