    Any chance you can get at by removing the defrost outlet?. Getting to behind the dash is major project and PITA due to the front end loader as you need to do from the outside under the hood. There is fresh air and defroster duct work in the way that has be removed.

    There is someone on the Benzworld Unimog forum that seems to have a lot of experience on renting vehicles for films.

    I have not had a leaky hub seal that I have seen. There are three plugs on the portal axle a drain a fill and one used to check the level. They could be loose as they are supposed to be checked on occasion. The portal does not contain much oil and if the level is low bad things happen to...

    FLU419 SEE San Antonio mechanic mentioned in thread & throttle issue

    In my case I had to replace some parts. Because the cab is designed to be lifted up (with a lot of hassle and some special tools), the pedal linkage attached to the pedal is not firmly attached to the rest of the linkage. Instead it is hooked to a roller that pushes on rounded lever with big...

    My guess is the 1" one is optimized for use on railroad tracks. The Cog railroad up Mt Washington in NH that was built in the 1860s has been upgrading their fleet and they built a special car for track maintenance, they reportedly use all Stanley hydraulic tools. Their tracks are custom with...

    Wow, pretty rare, although at least one guy claimed he bought a recapped one at auction and the tools and accessories were still sealed in the tool boxes. Did it come with the ultra rare long stroke hydraulic bottle jack? Those seem to disappear quickly. Do note there are mixed opinions on...

    They are all Stanley Hydraulic Systems tools with green paint on them. Be careful there are a lot of the stanley tools that did not come with SEEs from the electrical power transmission trade.

    One thing to track down is a spare tire and rim. There is place in VA that sells that size Pirelli on Ebay. The trick with rims is they have to be disk brake rims. Unless you have a hoist, one person is not going to be able to lift tire and rim in place. In pinch one person can get it out and on...

    Glad I could help. I think the roll hoop really differentiated the Case. At some point I talked on the phone with a retired former CASE tech rep/mechanic. He did training on them all over the US to other techs and worked with the Army in training SEE mechanics on major systems. He was around...

    Teh htr You may want to look at this thread Remote Throttle and Auxiliary tools - Chasing down a fault | SteelSoldiers Probably want to skip the hydraulic fluid shower ;) Having gone through it I can guess what wire is disconnected as the routing is not great. I do want to emphasize that...

    FLU farm could be right, mine is definitely not a recapped unit and I have had to work on the throttle linkage and replace parts. I also do not recognize the device attached to the engine cover that looks like a handle. I also do not have the shift range sticker.

    I am only 5'10 and I think its cramped in there !. That has to be a recapitalized unit as it looks like new. Yup you got the rare hein werner ripper bucket. Its a beefy rig. I saw reference somewhere that they only came with the stock bucket and if anyone in the army tried to order one, they...

    Looking good from here. Looks like new paint on the front bucket. Did it come with any hydraulic tools (jackhammer, drill and chainsaw)? I would be interesting if you got the standard bucket or the optional ripper bucket. Post a few more pictures including one from the back. The hood looks...

    Either a 406 or a 406 descendent Case MB-94 . The MB-94s were rebadged 406 distributed and supported by Case in the US and were popular with municipal and government agencies. I think the pricing or leasing must have been attractive as a lot were sold or leased to municipalities. They were...

    A strong recommendation is to get the high resolution file from the Misc technical manual forum instead of the two part version in the student handout. Speaking of the student handout, you do want to get the smaller schematic that shows the rear deck wiring from the handout as that is not on the...

    When I look in the part manual, the illustration does not show an air line connected to it.

    I think the problem is, if the new boot does not have an air connection, then the turning on the valve is not going to make a difference. I guess I need to crawl under my SEE once the snow melts as I did not know there was an air connection on the boot ;)

    FLU419 SEE, how much did you buy yours for? and some other questions

    IMHO, its parts vehicle for someone who already owns one. Way too many unknowns to price it.
