    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    I considered using larger cable,but since I was re-spooling 3 winches(760 feet!),I went with the 5/8, if I ever need extra capacity,I always carry 2 single sheave snatch blocks in every truck. I usually carry 5 to 6 on the wrecker.

    Terex/Load King M322 LT air brake diagram

    The manual states the OEM for the wheels was/is Accuride wheels. It would be a simple matter of getting the correct hub piloted wheel with the proper backspacing and offset,plus the correct lug pattern and size. After measuring the wheels on my M322 trailer,I believe the proper wheel is as...

    Terex/Load King M322 LT air brake diagram

    Well,I finally got around to posting up what I did for the taillights. I ended up replacing the 2 OmniVolt LED lights,both worked to start with,then the right just gave up,no lights or turn signals at all. Luckily I had 2 NOS metal taillights to replace them,I just had to wire in a separate...

    Terex/Load King M322 LT air brake diagram

    I'll do my best to keep everything for the trailer here, I did take the part number for the axle and look up the specs for it,Hendrickson claims a 25,000 lb load for each axle,and each tire has a load rating of 11,400 lbs. Just basing it on the tire capacity alone,that's 45,600 lbs,minus the...

    Terex/Load King M322 LT air brake diagram

    Update! I purchased a section of 2 inch diameter,cold rolled 1144 steel rod to make the missing ramp mounting pins. For those with the Load King trailers,you will need approx 84 inches total length,cut in half to make the 2 pins,yes,you could use pipe or something smaller,this is just what I...

    Terex/Load King M322 LT air brake diagram

    Success! The above mentioned spring brake valve worked perfectly,I did note that the parking brake valve does not seem to do anything,after charging the air system,it never set or released the spring brakes,It may have some crud in it,more time will tell.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    I preparation for the trip down to pick up the M322 I won,I am replacing the bypass coolant lines as well as the coolant feed lines to the air compressor on the M54A1C. Parts for a 673 Mack are not as readily attainable on the road compared to a Cat or Cummins,so it pays to do your prep work...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    I used my M62A1 and M103 genset trailer(converted to haul my air compressor,welder, and tool box) to remove,clean, and re seal the final drive on a John Deere 450 AA track loader/backhoe combo. It would be difficult to do without a wrecker anymore. Pictures!
