    813 front axel leaking

    if your talking about the steer axel, the seal inside the housing (axel shaft seal?) is bad. parts are not expensive. only odd tool you should need is a slide hammer to remove the retainer and seal.

    M37 fire wood haul

    thanks for the additional pics Bjorn. chains can make the difference when used with a little common sense. trying to navigate grades with ice and snow can be a challenge to say the least! I have never had trouble here in MI with the law about running chains on the public highways...

    Need weight info for 818

    the diverter boxes are reversible. drill out the spots on the mounting brackets and cable hold down and reweld on other side. also remove and flip the diverter shaft. the whole job takes less than 30 mins. the idea of moving the heater box inside the cab works very well. I mounted...
