    M813 axle boot and seal job, Socket Sizes needed?

    4-1/2" and 4-15/16" for the wheel bearing nuts. a slide hammer puller works well for pulling the axle tube seal and retainer out. a older thread titled "slight issue with XM818" has a few pictures of the process.

    Caught another M35

    i tend to over kill on safety. the lift/pull chains are the larger type Mil wrecker chains. the verticle safety chains are grade 100 and they are attachted to the boom at the shive point. they are there so if the cable breaks the towed unit will not hit the ground. then i use horizontal...
