    M817 dump body on M931A2 Chassis questions about pump and valve

    What pump / PTO did you use. Those rams on the 817 are bad azz.

    M925A2 oil leaking

    Input is more work than the output pinion seal. Ether one will require the flange nut to be removed. Input needs the whole retainer removed and seal removed from inside of retainer. Output seal can be replaced with just the nut and flange removed and seal replaced. Not a bad job and helps if you...

    M35a2 oils

    Agreed. I found the best thing if you worry about the transmissions is Google the oil that is in question and see in the list of additives if sulfur one of them. The Delo trans. I get is a pretty penny but no sulfur. Just that easy the op's oil for the trans, has sulfur/phosphorus so if you are...

    Buying a Deuce - Any hints?

    Take it for a ride and apply throttle and then let off apply throttle and let off while in high range. What we are looking for is if the range leaver will drop out of high range by it's self. Driving tip if all is good. When coming to the light/stop sign or what ever make the range shift while...

    new to me m818

    Being a 809 series the poppets should control the air cylinder. If it was some how redone and the leaver is used to control the sprag then you would have to shift it for a forward gear then shift again when you need reverse gear if front axle engagement is needed. Climb under the truck and look...

    Rear inner hub seal on M931A1

    Yea the 1/4 back off seems to be the norm for big axles other than putting a Dial indecator on them. As said they don't run that outer seal that we do so I have had no problems with backing off only 1/8 turn. Glad your up and running. When all else fails Google and trust the force.

    Rear inner hub seal on M931A1

    Bearing then something in the key way then outer seal. Cork or something in the key way. I don't like silly cone and have had good luck with a piece of those blue paper shop towels from the auto parts place. I tear off a piece and using a flat blade screw driver cramp it in the key way till the...

    NHC 250 fuel pump filter #

    But is the most simple to check or replace. I wish I could find the thread where I showed how much stuff was in 2 out of the four I checked. The stuff in mine was hair like stuff an must have came from the outer fuel filter. Know your machine and weapon better than what's for dinner.

    Rear inner hub seal on M931A1

    10-4. That would be the problem. It was not done right to begin with or it was never re inspected after the first bearing service. It's does not take anytime to just come back and toque the inner again after a good set of miles. As said if it was not for the military outer seal. Every truck...

    Rear inner hub seal on M931A1

    I disagree. On any other truck you might get away with it but not with the outer seal we run. Inner nut is taken to 100 to 150 Ft. lbs. Backed off then back to 50 ft.lbs. the TM's have us back off 1/4 from there but I don't go that far. The sure way to tell why the outer seal failed is when you...

    Got a Deuce! '62 M35A1

    Not. You have to get the bead of the tire down almost one inch to clear the lip of the split ring before the ring can be spread.

    Rear inner hub seal on M931A1

    [QUOTE=M35A2-AZ;1831103 But to me it looks like your inner and other seal has failed and your bearings has had all the grease washed out of them. The bearings in these trucks use grease not oil for the lube on the bearings. I don't believe the added oil mixed with the grease will hurt the...

    Deuce is stalling out when coming to a stop

    If all else fails just down load the troubleshooting manual. Start at the top and work your way through the test's till you find the problem.

    Deuce is stalling out when coming to a stop

    If all three filters are new then you go to checking pressures. With a low scale gage hooked to the bleed between the secondary and final filter. With just in tank running 4 to 6 psi. You could skip this the low check but now you need higher scale like up to 100 psi. Start motor and idle you...

    Fuel Issues - No Start

    Myself I would recheck the timing. This time Don't look for both valves closed on # one. The correct timing Balancer on the mark. The 4 bolt advance window on the mark and Head one tooth to the rear. Now open the oil cap on the valve cover and look down and forward and you should just see #2...
