    M1070 recovery

    As far as the truck, I would cut off the entire frame behind the second rear axle, remove the winches and fifth wheel, paint it yellow, and sell it into construction. Then buy another HET.

    m38a1 motor installation

    Sure. It is easier however to remove the "power pack" (engine/trans/transfer) as a unit. It was designed to be done that way.

    From the HET TM: "Be aware, neither the gas particulate filter unit nor field mask for NBC will protect you from CO poisoning".

    M1070 recovery

    All that oil you are burning must be plugging up the muffler with soot. CO poisioning is a real concern, if you start to get real sleepy you are about to die.

    M1070 recovery

    The problem looks to be that the 24 volt alt is not charging, and you have not removed the 24 volt loads listed earlier, and those are sucking down your battery again and again.

    Circuit breaker Help

    ARC186 links the correct type breaker. Don't use an AC breaker with DC. ARC186, keep me in mind if you want to part with your second crane, looks like a useful accy for my lmtv!

    M1070 recovery

    The -20 says 24V is only used for starting, ctis, air dryers, and trailer lights. If you pop the breakers on those items, the batt should stay charged enough to crank for days to come. Knock on wood.

    Wheel ID

    Oh, sorry, stud piloted is the type lug nuts used on your 5 ton, also called "budd caps" etc. I'm contradicting gringle's take on what you have. He has far more experience than me however.

    Kinda doesn't look like a stud-piloted wheel to me.

    That sound is coming from the parking brake drum. The driveshaft is hollow, there is nothing inside.

    Fuzzytoaster up the road in College Station can bring you a towbar if you can get the bracket.
