    5 ton lockout hubs

    Okay I believe that you are getting the idea on your edit, but you and the others worrying about wear, after a few rotations going down the road everything turns at or very close to the same speed the biggest advantage to the lock out hubs up front is less binding and mass to force up to speed.

    5 ton lockout hubs

    Yes tobyS and squirting truck there is a neutral position in a 809 series transfer case, you have to use it for the rear body on a wrecker. MyothersanM1 is correct about the removal of air to the transmission poppets that engage the forward or reverse Sprague it will completely disengage the...

    m936a2 rear drag line winch

    There is not a free spool Sure rip it out and spend about 10 grand or so. It will bird nest easy enough like it is you really don't want it to free spool. The military has lots of people to help pull What are you trying to use it for? Do you need to pull 30-45000 lbs? If not, use the front...

    m936a2 rear drag line winch

    That is what the rope blocks and rope are good for, to pull that heavy cable through the level winder and out to whatever you want to hook to. Forget free spool you still can't handle 300' of 3/4" cable if you want to make it a 2 person job add a capstan winch or a a small electric winch to...

    Threw a rod through my engine block.

    You wouldn't need to swap the pistons but everything else on Drew's list and it would be just remove and replace. The hardest things to get right would be the timing on the cam and IP. and if you swapped the IP there would be no need to turn it up and worry about burning up the motor because...

    Not the pivot rod but a bolt on the side of the upright it will let you slide the upper part of the assembly off, just the top 3 tubes.

    816 hoist motor leak

    It is a easy fix but I would take mine to hydraulic shop they will have all of the stuff on hand to do it right and a cleaner setup than most of us to do it in. Cheap insurance if you ask me.

    816 hoist motor leak

    No Paul what happens is the seals go bad and hydraulic oil can go one of two ways out around the manual square drive or into the winch housing where it will flow out the vent
