Either mine are missing or I have yet to locate it in the mountain of parts that came with it. I saw where Wes had used 3/4" mats from TSC. Need to get "something".
Pretty sure it was a w/w from the factory. The bill of sale from GL way back when indicated as much.
I could have the 2 bottom lines swapped? I don't know for absolute certain because the guy who took the tranny out died a couple years ago. The guy who just put the rebuilt tranny back in about...
I looked at it quite a bit and thought the same... maybe they're reversed on the winch control valve itself? Thing is, and maybe I'm doing it wrong(!), but getting them swapped would make it very difficult if not impossible to fit in the tower housing. Can you please take a photo of how yours...
Ok, after further troubleshooting, that valve is not right. If I put it to "disengage" it just dumps air forever. Its surprising (to me) how fast that thing can drain the system down.
So I'm operating with it engaged. Which really bugs me.
It seems to be a fairly simple setup. WTH am I missing?!
I'd thought of changing where the connectors are attached. But after looking at diagrams, its configured properly. I don't understand how the air supply line would be the problem. And the next device in the line after it is the winch in/out control. Which does work.
The winch is working as it...
The switch is to enable/disable the "in/out" winch control just a bit further up the shift tower. I'm going to try flipping the switch around tomorrow.
Hi All,
While in the disengaged (downward) position, the winch control valve on my M35A3 dumps air. If I put it in the engaged (upward) position it stops. Obviously that's not safe, so I removed the valve, disassembled, replaced what could've been a busted oring, and put it back together...
