For your eng temp, mine does the same in central texas with 90+ temps. I dont have a warning buzzer, and if i do and its operational, then the gauge is very wrong. Many on here say that the factory gauges and not to be trusted. Mine has been pegged out after 30-40 min of crane ops, and i checked...
As Mullaney said, xfr case in N, xmsn in N, attempt to take the pto lever and push it to the back of the cab. If it doesnt go, place xmsn in 1-5, at the same time of applying pressure on the pto lever. It should engage, verify its engaged by sound, the eng will bog down very briefly, then pick...
The air should already be built if a person is driving down the road and has a flat. I dont see what i carry as a lot of extra, just like i dont see that what you carry as to little. You do you and ill do me. The man asked what folks carry, i stated what i carry.
I carry 2 20 ton bottle jacks from tractor supply, a couple 4x6s for blocking/shoring, a 3/4” impact with lug and beadlock nut sockets and an old craftsman 30 gal air comp tank to use as a volume tank and a 1/2” HF air hose to run the impact.
I will eventually keep a 3/4” breaker bar and ratchet...
TM doesnt say and to each their own, but with them being locking nuts, and knowing how much of a pain mine were to get off with the amount corrosion in the threads. I sleazed mine with a nickel base anti-sleaze.
I was messing with 14R20s, that who knows how long they were on the rims for before i began breaking beads. I used my tractor at first, but then after putting a fork through the sidewall of 1, i decided to find an alt. method and just did grunt work. now that i have fresh 395s recently mounted...
As for breaking bead, i use 2 tanker bars (5’ single chisel point pry bar), a 36” standard pry bar and an ample amount of soapy water or a penetrant oil.
I had 2 wheel assy, that even snatch blocked on the 20k front winch, 1tn dually chained to my tractor and both truck and tractor chocked, and...
General maint standard practices in my field of work state to tighten till the click and stop.
There is 1 installation procedure for my field that requires multiple clicks at 275’ lbs, to achieve the required thread protrusion.
You can also use a thread pitch gauge or a tape measure and mark off 1” and count the threads in that 1”, then measure the diameter of the stud.
You can also see what the tm says for part number and do a google search for said p/n or use wbparts.com or partstarget.com and it gives you size.
With the short distance, try a cargo net strapped the pallet, plus the pallet/s as far forward as you can get them.
You say you dont bed tie downs. Why not install them?
@98G I know this an old thread, but we aint in south texas. I used Goode once for a roll back a d was exceptionally happy with their service.
For others in the future with similar questions. When i purchased both my 936A2s, the tow company i bought them from loaded the non operational one onto...
I ended up cutting the flange off my muffler and used a tig rod as filler, used my oxy/acet rig and brazed the flange on the straight pipe. Not using flux made for an ugly weld, but doesnt leak. I do NEED to find a flapper for my pipe. Iv been using a bucket when im gone but here lately, while...
Referring to reply #7 @Mario item 18 in the pic is the rear pto/power divider. Up and to the back of the cab is engaged/on and down, away from the cab is disengaged/off. I made the mistake a couple time of having the rear pto engaged, t-case in high a d went to 1-5 on the xmsn selector and it...
