    S.E.E. not just for septic tank work

    Kermie makes a good tire machine The spare on the M94A1 sits horizontal under the truck allowing water to set and seep in between the combat wheel half's causing them to rust weld. As luck would have it we needed to exchange tires and rims. Kermies back HO makes a good bead breaker, rim...

    stuck in 1st gear

    Maybe a torpedo heater under the engine compartment. Did we establish it won't roll with the clutch in or transfer case in neutral? I'm thinking if you get PO'd when something goes wrong you will be spending a lot of time PO'd. Most of us look at problems as part of the challenge...

    Bucket Hydralic hose shut off valves Found out the hard way why there are ball valves on the bucket hydraulic hoses. There are push pins shut off valves inside the nipple if there is pressure there you can't make the connection. The pin won't push in. You have to take the nipple off to relive...

    I Learned (the hard way) an Important Rebuilding Lesson...

    The outer ID axle bearing on the M939 series is slightly smaller then the inner. On four out of five seal replacements I checked to make sure I was installing them correctly. On #5 I spent 10 to 15 minutes trying to slide the whee/drum/hub assembly on before I realized I forgot to check and...

    It would be your fault for letting me drive in the first place. If you call what I do driving more like constant controlled crashing.

    Adding electric trailer brakes to a 5ton A2

    Controllers are inertia operated so you don't have to tap into the brake system. The main bug-a-boo is getting a 12v supply for the controller ,the brakes and lights There are several ways to do that. Tap off one battery. Least desirable. throws the battery bank off balance. Separate 12v system...

    MEP 802A keeps popping CB1 Breaker

    If you are actually getting over current at the breaker then you have a short someplace. My MEP003 breaker control 24V DC would pop between 3 minutes and 4 hours of running. Took me 2 meters, 2 tanks of fuel and 3 days to get it. Turned out the shut off solonoid winding was shorting. The...

    Don't Use Low Range Reverse with 939's? Here's Why !!

    Not a failure in engineering. Anybody involved in the acceptance process knows or should know this is not acceptable. Its a matter of accepting the unacceptable. Makes you wonder whats going on behind the scenes. Why did the lock out WMO come out way after the fact?

    Don't Use Low Range Reverse with 939's? Here's Why !!

    Accepting Engineering that do this is in the same category as not being able to put it in gear when self extracting winching.
