And I have a couple of ship anchors for the front of the M819, to hopefully keep it earthbound this trip. :tinkerbell:

I know on the one I have used the cables had seized up and wouldn't engage anything. I don't remember which way the lever on the winch has to be, but there is usually a keeper down hard to see that keepsit disengaged unless flipped out of the way.

I have NOT been able to find an inner filter. I have been searching for 3 years now. Taken it to every equipment dealer in several major cities. No luck. I hope your search proves fruitful, so I can fianlly get one!

Phil just rolled out. Trailer is a bit well used but the tank is fine. Thanks Phil! And thats funny gimp, I told him to do the same to you!

There is a very large set screw in the drum. There is a hole in the drum so the cable can go in from either end and be held down by the set screw.

I can bring something. My M37 should be painted and looking good by then.

I am very curious as to why you had to resort to a generator running an electric air compressor. Glad you made it home safe, update us when you can. Curious minds want to know... I have also experienced the air drier issue. A bunch of spray kroil and repeated cycling got it working right.

Ok it is looking like the oil was not making it to #2 piston. Hence the overheating and failed piston. Pics tomorrow in the light.

That phrase has almost led to my very painful death several times...So has 'I thought someone would outbid me!'

Had the engine out in under 2hr [thumbzup] It's been this freaky weather, and other life things that are making it take forever to swap the parts onto the new engine and put it all back in.

I thought of that Ty, but there is obvious ding marks in the top of the piston and in the head. Could be the dings in the head are from the piece of ring, but I pried it out so I'm not sure if it was free floating or not. The injectors all 'appear' fine. I know you can't really tell without pop...

I believe Toole. I will look again tomorrow.

Well I picked up this beautiful M931a1 for a former member here last Jan. 9.8 miles on the clock. Very nice truck. Drive shafts disconnected. Warning #1. Got it home and charged the batteries. Starter would just go CLUNK. Warning #2. Tried to bar the engine over. Wouldn't turn in either...

Good job Andy! And Ken... stay out of ditches! Lol

Wow Phil! Hard to believe that is the same truck! Glad it didn't turn out to be junk.

I will warm it up and build air JIC. I have wanted a real reason to go exploring anyway. Lol.

Ok but if you wind up with two stuck 5 tons you know who to call.

Need a hand? I can make it up there.

The fact the wood wouldn't hold up to a bb gun if SHTF? LOL. I'm itching to get started on my part.

You guys are confusing my really nice almost perfectly straight m37 for EMD's several hundred pound lighter outline of an m37. I'm good at making up m numbers. How about m110a2? Or a m359?
