was going along in our m936A2 wrecker today to help fish out a backhoe up to its doors in mud . . . he couldn't open them he was in so deep .
40ish mph down the highway and BOOM Left front rear tire shreaded . it was a older mich XL 14.00x20 super single that was its original spare that someone swapped on it before we got it . the rest of the truck is g/y at-2a tires in real nice looking shape.
I got a line on a good used tire/rim combo $300 bucks . but he said It should be taken apart and change the o-ring since its had no air in it for a bit in storage .
what would you do for a tire ? grab his and just bolt it on or swap the o-ring . he said he has O-rings also .
and there is a broken hose on top of the axle with a brass fitting . goes in to a block that's bolted on the top of the axle and I think its the ctis hose maybe ? its a flexable rubber hose with a 45* or 90* bent fitting on it . maybe 3/8 or 1/2" fitting . will ge pics when we get it back to the shop . there was no air coming out of it when the truck was still running and the rest of the tires were up . the ctis box was flashing all mode lights .
I know with no pics its had to help but will try asap to get them up .
I did manage to limp it off the highway to a empty parking lot and hide it from basic line of sight tho .
any tips or tricks to get me rolling again would be super thanks.
