    Preventive Maintaince on Air System?

    I have a transfer case valve sticking and dumping air into the intake and was thinking (dangerous right) if it might be a good idea to add air tool oil into the air system. I empty the air tanks after every use and have very very little to no moisture coming out of the tanks. Is this a good or...

    M936 Rear winch shear pin options

    Thats what I was thinking it was some type of alloy with it a silver pin but didnt know if a grade 5 bolt would be safe to use temporarily. Eastern surplus has this one https://www.easternsurplus.net/PartDetails/5975/9m-867-Rear-Winch-Shear-Pin-Wrecker-drag-winch-M543A2-M816-M936 but it looks...

    Is this original or later conversion?

    I know this is a generator trailer but is the trolly lift system something the military actually used? I saw this one and saved it from the scrapper. I've seen set ups like this with duals on another style trailer. Thanks

    Geared Lug Wrench options?

    I didn't think about the warranty, when the weld around the tube broke I rewelded it and I will have to check and see that may have voided the warranty. As far a price I gave 100 bucks for it many years ago, and would like to stay around that range. I would think my 220lb arsh wouldn't be able...

    WTK If even Possible to Repair Chain

    I've searched the classified ads and didn't see anything. I thought about cutting a good link and connecting it together and welding it back but am not sure about the welding heat making that link weak, I wish I could find a hammerlock type but haven't found anything large enough

    M35A3 Power Assist Steering Problems

At this point either the Orings will be broke, or using a oring pick remove the orings and you will...
