So the ranch has a M818 that we use to haul cattle, dozer, backhoe and anything else that needs a good hauling around. I live in rough country where everything is up and down, so that being said we use the brakes. Sometimes and only sometimes the truck will have full peddle and zero brakes...

Sounds like the tire bead is not far enough down, if you can get the tire bead down where the ring comes together it will help to pry it out, once it starts then you can work around the tire.. Lots of sweat and cussing and next thing you know it’s off ! You have to push the tube valve into the...

Thank you, I’ll give that a try.. and yes i was the stock line..

So I use MEP’s to pump water for cattle in very remote places around the ranch, yesterday my guys went to check on the generator and the return line had broken or slipped off, I haven’t been there yet to see. Anyway my question is has anyone figured out how to bomb proof the return line so this...

I have a couple part gen sets if you need pumps let me know. Clint

We pull gooseneck trailers with horses/cattle but they are on 7.50-16 tires, you do not make good time but they get by.

Welcome from NM, Good luck getting your truck going

As we have 2 CUCV's that are used for Ranch trucks and there is a huge difference between haling and towing. You can put on a ton and a half of salt blocks and go anywhere and make good time, you hook it to a 16 foot goose neck trailer and you can walk ahead and get there sooner, then hook it to...

Can you fly there and drive the trailers home?

If you only knew how much that would help me, that would make my bad day a better one, PLEASE AND THANKS!!!!!!

I have to eat my words, "the oil pump is working good" sorry M35A2-AZ I thought it was. The T-Case ate the top bearing so now to rebuild it. YEA!!!

The pump is working good, it did get hot but not dangerous hot and the T-case was working good all 2 days until setting the final drive on the dozer. I mean it was so close it was like a wind chime so I had to boom down to take load off and it would not self destruct. So today we took both drive...

I ended taking both drive lines off and got the job done and crane folded up.

OK, so how hard it that (the shift fork) to get to on a wrecker? I did dump all air, and still hard to get to high, can not get to low at all.
