I just saw this too. I never scroll this far down the page. I'll come if I have no truck problems between now and then, but you really should have this moved to a more visible part of the site.

Oh that sucks!

I envy you...

I spent yesterday and today going through a rear hub and resealing it(again), then went through the whole front end minus the 3rd member,( boots, axle seals, all bushings, and packed bearings, and replaced one wheel cylinder. Bled the brake cylinder out on that side, but I think I still have air...

Peashooter, those are called the "link pins".

Welcome aboard bud, I would advise you to verify what that leak is for sure and check all of your brake system before you get the truck out on the road again. It is just too dangerous to be around other people in these trucks with questionable brakes. Take the time and do it right. I've been...

I'll find a way when I'm ready. I do hope to make the GA rally this year.

Looks like your new truck is going to be spending some more time at my place huh? I would bring it to the rally for you if I could.

You may as well change the rear main seal while you are at it.

I thought it was a tow bar with a foot attached?

I want a pair of those seats, but I'm way out of the way for the route Stonepicker took home. I'll get some when the timing is right I suppose.

Myself and a couple others from my A.O will be there Thursday afternoon.

How about one of the smaller Detroit diesels?

Nice find! Now you just have to paint it green and do something about that front bumper.

I wish you were closer, I would have rolled the M936 to lift tow you last night. I'm sure you aren't still on the side of the road. Just hope you didn't get hurt out there on the side of the road.

That is REALLY sharp! You are a true craftsman my friend.

Replace it, you melted some things inside. You probably can get a whole truck for close to what just a surplus transmission will cost you, unless someone here has a used takeout. Post up a want ad in the classifieds.

You might be able to replace it with a whole bogie assembly from a five ton too. Should be relatively cheap and available, and i think the frame width is correct. It wont ride as smooth as an air ride setup, but it'll be a lot smoother than it is now

Don't be scared, just have a towbar, tow vehicle, and try to preview before you buy. Don't overlook the driveshafts.

You are quite welcome. A general rule of thumb to follow anyway is to start with the cheapest part first if you just can't diagnose the problem 100%.
