    M936A2 boom lift cyl hose replacement

    . Sad but true. The mechanicals aren't very and the pilots are a bunch of whining weirdos. I keep thinking that the younger folks are eventually going to figure out that they need to hump it a little more - but that doesn't seem to be happening. Yeah, I think my days of hustling three and a...

    M936A2 boom lift cyl hose replacement

    . I understand. That getting from the point of "out" to fully awake has been difficult for me too in the past. Mine were generally self inflicted with broken things that hat to be put back together or stitched up. Maybe you can sit still for a couple of weeks to get everything healing before...

    . You might try tapping with a hammer as far around the nut as you can reach, then go for it again with a wrench. If you have a spare set of hands - maybe smack the wrench with a hammer. (like you would do with an impact socket that just won't quite budge a lug nut)

    M936A2 boom lift cyl hose replacement

    . Honest to goodness, I just can't quite understand how these fittings corrode. They aren't spastic, odd or weird. I got after mine with my normal "angle wrenches". About a third shorter than a regular wrench with a 30° and a 60° on the other end. I got nowhere. Huff and Puff and grunt and...
