Don't believe that's covered in the TMs (what Tom is talking about...). IMHO getting info from a person/teacher is more fun and fullfilling than reading the textbooks alone.

Sure Lloyd, let me know about any questions you may have, I'll be glad to try to help.

No2, that particular cabin is not my design, mine can be seen here http://mayapplebrandstedt.com/ The extension adds about 8 ft to the reach of the crane. It can be carried in the A-frame holders on the pipeline bed.

Apparently too costly and/or overqualified. The m656/xm757 trucks were designed for the Pershing missile system to replace the tracked vehicles used before them. Ford built the 8x8s and Martin Marietta was the prime contractor for the Pershing system. Ford did show other variants on paper.

RE: WVO Lloyd, any update on your veggie oil production, if any?

...designed in the mid sixties, the m656/xm757 trucks eliminated the brake fluid and went 100% air...sorry for bringing these trucks up so often, but a lot of things were done to correct earlier problems.

Hmmm...I meant the Airpak air cylinder.....

Don't have a schematic handy, but the unit is internally grounded to the case, so an ohm meter should do the trick, just check continuity. Or, take the cover off and look at the wiring....

26 ft may not be enough unless you can move the truck close to point of lift. Working from the inside of the building may do it....

Don't know, but if the seals are not installed correctly, you'll end up with brake fluid inside the large air cylinder.....

Start with any part of it and one thing will lead to another. Leave the breather vents stock, just make sure they work, take them off and try breathing through them, they are one-way valves. Connect the compressor air intake to the engine air filter canister, there is a hose nipple on the...

The case of the flasher unit is not internally connected to ground, so make sure the "C" wire has a solid ground....

When not pressurized, it's only a vent. Why bother the engine air intake system, I have mine high on the firewall on the engine side along with a valve to switch from vent to pressure. Like Leonard stated, the outside of the filter is at outside atmospheric pressure (unless there is some severe...

Seems like I need to learn another language......

Nice job! I'm doing the same as we speak on the lds465-2. What's the reason for the double clamps?

Re: RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Axle Breather Valves The vent on top of the transmission should release the pressure to keep that from happening, but the boot does have to be tight.

Re: RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Axle Breather Valves

Sounds like a good idea, but I would think that there are other issues effecting failures. Running it full time may even be a good thing.

HIAB 8001? But, not sure where that came from.

Another image from my files. I have the crane identified as a HIAB 8001, but I'm not sure about that, looks more like a Grove. A compact crane would look good on my 8x8. :-)
