I have spent enough to buy a nice press replacing the the torque rod ends ends on two trailers . the shop that did the work has a huge press . I talked to the man if a 20 ton press would work he said maybe . so I never bought a press . how much pressure is needed to change a torque rod...

1954 m269 wrecker lowboy . I bought it from a salvage yard worked on it for a year and a half and added the rear ramps . also had to add a winch to my m52a2 . it has worked out real nice to have the ramps to be able to haul what I need to haul .
one time I turned the truck off to change a tire on m52a2 and went to restart it and about the same thing . I thought maybe the engine locked up . turned out that one batteries went bad inside I was only getting 12 volts to the starter .
hand crank for the Hercules HXD 855 cubic inch 6 cylinder 5.49 to 1 compression . this is in my 43 white 666 . this engine is broke and not running . there is a heavy guard under the radiator to maybe keep the crank from putting a hole in it . this crank would come in handy when working...
the 5 ton pto I bought from Memphis has a lever to shift it in or out of gear the out put shaft is tapered to take a sprocket or a yoke for a drive line . I don't know what truck they where used on ?
I bought a 5 ton transfer pto a few years a go from Memphis Equipment and I asked them and they said they are different . I was hoping some one that has seen both would come forward and maybe show pictures
this is a 1954 m269 wrecker lowboy with ramps that I added when I rebuilt the trailer . it has air brakes it is the right size to haul another truck it is a short trailer
NDT pictures of white 666 (6x6 6 ton ) the cab was made by the man I bought it from the HXD hercules motor is locked up I have another rebuilt HXD to put in it .
near the bottom on the back it looks like a bolt hole . there is two check valves one at the transfer case and one at the pto just springs and balls you will need them
