Thinking OD Green with old red camo job

Thank you everyone for your comments The TM suggested is a much better read than the TMs for 818 Iv got a lot of little stuff figured out Lot easier 2nd time around. Can someone tell me where the air line coming out between the 2 poppet valves on top of trans gos to and if its supposed to...

I often ask myself that same question Sure I can do that

Yup thought u guys would like that Custom fire department turbo set up. So far Im real happy with it seems to have a lot less gear wine than my 818 and I like the few extra rpm. Seems to have more top end power but the cummins has a lot more low end grunt. The paint is pretty good even though I...

Dragged this truck out of a field, checked all fluids, bleed brakes aired up tires and a good push start with the loader and fired rite up and away we go 2 hr drive home. So much smoother & a little faster than my 818 even with the 11.00s. Just about got the 818 NHC figured out and now Im hoping...

Welcome I got my 818 last summer BRAKES are the 1st thing I went through. Replace all rubber hoses brakes and fuel from tank to IP. Good time to do spin on filter conversion its worth it. Check all fluids and Make sure you have no water in any of your fluids. You should add a little air tool oil...

I thank you for helping me and its not the 1st time and im sure not the last With the shaft still in place I can see with the tunnel removed its walking in and out with a little bit of a wobble but by hand and with a bar i cant budge it in any direction with the shaft in place but doesn't look...

OK got it spinning now dont know what I missed last night but please excuse my brain fart The front half of propeller shaft/trans output seems to have some up and down and in and out movement when spinning but seems tight when trying to move it with a long bar. Does this seem like out put...

Welcome from W. Palm Beach. I get some funny looks when I park my 5 ton grocery getter but I get some big smiles too

Is there a benifit to using water based over oil? Always though oil based held up better

Every time I think Ive solved this issue it rears its ugly head again. Ive read a lot of theads on this and the hose from tank to filter and pump look to be in great shape. If I replace this hose can I eliminate the short copper pipe thats built in the hose from tank? Is there a way to seal up...

No doubt about that!Its one of the only places I post. Its was the same comradery with the sailing community when I lived on my 32 CnC Thinking M818 or it is now. Got it from a construction Co going out of busness. They did have two 5 tons and had a full time painter that painted all the old...

The green one is my current truck I got last summer NHC 250 tag under hood and M52A1 tag in cab. The red one is the one I spent a hr with out in a field last sunday

My current M52a1 as the data plate in the cab says has a NHC 250 cummins 855 C.I.D. advertised 240 hp as as the plate on the PT pump states Overhauled in 1990 in Albany GA. Was this the original engine all my searches come up with Mack info for M52a1. The TMs seem to match up with my truck but I...

It has the air filter intake coming thru the hood and turboed if that helps identify what motor also has the 2 fuel filters top driver side of motor as well as what looks to be aftermarket spin on filter on frame rail. The front clip looked to be the same dimensions as my M52A1 but i could be...
