    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    I've seen those before but never considered them. I wonder if you could take the zerk fitting out and use that in the hole instead of pushing the ball in. I can see why you would need a rag handy! Thanks for the reply. I'll try that. It would sure beat taking each end of the driveshaft off!

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Greased one u-joint on the trans to transfer case driveshaft of my M923A2. Is there any special way to do this? How does the military do this in this driveshaft? I can't get my grease gun with small tip to line up with the fitting. Is taking each end off the only way? Gotta be an easier...

    Coolant issue!!

    The water pump weep hole is on the underside of the water pump snout where the fan bolts. There is a small hole there that when the water pump seal goes bad, it will leak and tell you it's time to replace the pump. If it continues to leak, it will cause the pump shaft bearing to go bad then...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    I disconnected one end of one of my driveshafts after an underneath inspection of my truck found some loose bolts holding the drivesaft to the axle flange. The flange at the axle was wobbly too. I found the big nut that holds the flange to the pinion shaft was loose. It has the cotter pin in...

    Fuel Filter Issues for This Noob!

    Maybe you can use teflon tape to seal the leak on the drain plugs that are stripped. Best would be to get new. Also when purging air from fuel system, you can take out a few glow plugs that are easy to get to and it will help with cranking the engine. It will make it easier on the starter.

    Help me plan - better highway capability

    I can vouch for Bowtie Overdrives. They rebuilt my 700R4 to a level 2 and it has been great for a year and a half now. They are great on support too. Daryl Smith was the guy that helped me there. Great guy.

    Fuel Filter Issues for This Noob!

    Is the truck turning over and not starting or is it not turning over at all? If it is turning over and not starting, you probably have introduced air into the fuel system by removing the drain valve on the bottom. You mentioned you stripped the bottom drain valve. They are plastic as I...
