There is transfer case troubleshooting in the -34 TM, but it does sound like something is worn allowing it to slip out. There is a thread here on another member changing one out with some pictures, might be worth taking a look at. The worst part about these machines is the one off drive train...
Nice, yeah my battery went dead and I did not know it. Good job on getting the head on, I filled mine with water tonight and ran it for 20-30 minutes, according to my gauge it maxed out at 160 degrees, not sure if that is normal for just idling. I have the timing gauge if you need one for the...
That tag goes in the fuel strainer, it attaches to the strainer with a cotter pin where the safety chain attaches. Can't help with the transmission other than it should be within a year or so of the date of manufacture of the truck.
That primary filter shows you what it's pulling out of the tank, nasty stuff. Good decision taking the time to clean it, that will save a lot of grief in the future. I'm debating on only using the drivers side tank and capping off the cross over fuel tank line. I doubt I would ever need 40...
I took the bilge pump out when I had the engine out like Tom suggested. My bilge pump screen was clogged solid with grease/oil and dirt, it's easy to get out with the engine out of the way. You could take it out through the access plate on the bottom of the hull if you had to. While I had the...
Checked the fuel lines for leaks with the deleted cold start, no leaks good to go. Parts required to delete the cold start assembly are a 1/8 pipe cap and a 1/4 pipe cap. Replaced the connector on the temp sender and oil sender, these connectors seem to break the wire insulation right where it...
I think it was up to who ever was running the de mil yard that day in 1995, they ripped all the fenders off, crushed the dash/cowl and punched a few holes in the RH side with a forklift. They never touched any part of the carriers. The dash and fenders are easy to replace, the puncture on the...
Ok, here it is but not too exciting, fenders are off and I still have the de mill punctures to repair which I need it a roller to get to the welding shop, sort of a catch 22 but it should be operational soon I hope.
Thank you for the replies, a couple other people have tried it with a shelter and I guess it really bogs it down. Hopefully when I add coolant there are no surprises. When I get home tonight I will replace the fuel return line and give it another leak test.
Really need to thank Mark:-D and...
None really, just the data plate, the ambulance usually has a heater mounted front/rear. It's the carrier that has all the extra ambulance goodies although the bare carrier is identical. I will have a standard cargo cover made, not the ambulance cover. The cargo cover seems to be in short supply.
I don't have the rear insulated ambulance cover. It seems I got a mix of a ambulance tractor and cargo carrier. I have an original cargo cover that is ripped and I will use it as a pattern to have one made.
Ok so she runs and it was quite exciting and as Mark said they fire pretty quick, so now the AAR. So my fuel supply was a jerry can with a return line and an outboard motor fuel hose for the supply. I chose it as it has a priming bulb which made it easy to fill the filters and prime the...
I used POR-15 Marine Clean, I removed the tanks and set them on a Coleman stove on the ground to heat the solution and loosen the crud on the bottom of the tank, then roll it around the yard for what seemed hours. It took a total of two days from start to end but worth it. I got rid of all the...
Video first, took a while to download with my primitive off grid connection, report to follow.

Master cylinder installed, blew out the lines from the master cylinder end, not much air at the carrier so I detached the quick release and tried from there, still not much so I reversed and blew in the axle fitting and that started clearing the lines so back and forth a few times and now a good...
