You can access the 4*4 cylinder and air related stuff from inside the cab by removing the panel inside the cab. See the thread I started for pictures. Good luck j

My 4x4 and lock up and intermediate gear selector is not working. Cab tilting was not in my future so i took a look at the panel under the gear selector. In my Flu419 I can drop that panel with 4 screws in each corner.. remove the black rubber. unscrew the hydraulic knob and main power...

Yeah FLU , thanks for fessing up. Came to that conclusion as well, idle it is. My high idle does work so may be good when I am good. I learned to ride a motor cycle on a yamaha virago, 2 cyl V twin. I did not know that one spark plug was bad so effectively it was a single cylinder. After a while...

Worked a couple of hours on the 4Wd / locked switch. Took it out to examine. When reinstalling My flashlight fell inside the somewhere. It took me an hour to find it. By that time I was about boiling. Removed the locker airline from the front axle but got confused with the manual that made me...

Thank you Alpine44 , Exactly on the money. Went back this morning, pulled the knob of and the split pin that should actuates /slide over the cam is rusted. Put some oil on top and started working it started working the spool up and down with a screw driver. I will let the oil do its magic for a...

I will take another look tomorrow but i can not rotate the switch.I thought for a second that I had to pull the switch up yo be able to rotate it but I only pulled the knob of. i will get under there was a mirror and flaslight. later J

Thank you for the teaching me the tricks of the trade. I thought the 4x4 / locker rotary switch is electric and from there it becomes pneumatic? The switch itself is physically stuck. Is it is a pneumatic switch? Sorry for asking something i ca probably look up in the manuals. later J

I attery kind of got carried away with out first success and decided is was time to try the forest. I bought a bunch of heavy duty antenna mast sections to build a bridge over the creek at our camp. These section are 22ft long galvanized and weigh, my guess 700-900 lbs. My junkyard friend...

haha, nice Simp... yes that is exactly what I did getting back in the cherokee. FLU may be you have to much fun in the 419 to notice the pain in your knees? I am more sensitive because working on the clutch in these seems to be a horror story. Is there any opening where you can actually peak in...

Well I was lucky that the loader was able to get that high and made it above the forklift's cab. In retrospect your comment made me only now realize that the steering was OK when the battery was hanging still high up. Then just for safety sake I dropped it down to 4" above ground and I thought...

our flu419 seems to change gears well without grinding but the clutch pedal is pretty heavy. After I parked from its first job today and got back in our cherokee I thought that I had lost the clutch in the cherokee . So can anybody share an opinion how much force it needs to depress the clutch...

happy Independence Day, 9 years ago i bought a military Hyster electric forklift on ebay. There were some electric issues with it but $600 and $ 800 shipping from texas to PA was a good deal. The new stickers was still on it and it was a lot more then what i paid for it. :-) Not sure what is...

Wow pretty darn cool. I love radial engines. later J

Test fitted the door and did some rust repairs to the bottom section. The contour in the quarter panel was a problem. The philips screws need to be countersunk . The stainless steel is locally tinned and will be soldered to the quarter panel in the hope that I do not get cracks or corrosion...

I was lucky that my friends at a welding shop had time to help me out so we bend up a section of 1/8" Stainless for the floor profile. Made a small mistake end it would not but up nice to the original so had to cut a section out and refit. I have never had any real good experience with...

Thanks Karl, You are right about the $$, just got a flu419, still not over the price I paid for that but I still have beer in the fridge so what is there to complain.. I hate rust so decided to use Stainless steel as replacement parts. First attempt. Changed design, so had to add some...

Thank you, fun to drive around in. Rust is horrible. So I drilled the spot welds and removed the skin. This was already a replacement panel. Assume the Danish put it on. The other side is good, They sprayed a lot of anti rust wax in the hollow sections of the car but for the passenger side that...

:-o how do you mean...Just kidding . This is when we bought it last year. This is the problem area : Not sure I am doing this image stuff right. Later J

evening folks, Last year we bought a 1986 Mercedes GD240 W460 chassis through fleab . It was original from the Danish Army. We have several mercedes diesels w123/ w124 and this GD240 has the 4 cylinder na OM616 engine and a 4 speed manual. It is a fun machine to drive, slow especially on road...

Thank you Tennmogger, i will treat as such. later J
