After looking at the TM, it looks easy....yeah right....just gonna be messy. However, after removing the panel over the boom controls, there are numbers stamped in the fittings/hose ends at the valve body and pipe wrench marks on the compression fittings, so, that usually means that someone has...

Those were from a week ago. Today I went in, punched a hole through the new spacer and checked fitment. Good enough for me! Did some work on the braces and extended them as far as they would go. Positioned the forklift under the boom, put the braces on the boom, one of us held the boom up...

The hydraulic line thing has really been bugging me. I am not usually the kind of person that lets things kick my arse. So. I decided to try and figure out how to get to the lines up in the center that go to the slip ring, but, with the boom down, I couldn't really look at things. I decided to...

Here is the winch with slack in it!

OK, I know it has been a bit, but we are still working on the wrecker. I got the front winch loosened up. I decided to try and mechanically try to loosen it up. The shear pin did it's job and sheared off, so, I was hoping that the gears were OK. Only way to find out is to try it out, right? I...

This was posted on a FB group I follow, so I figured I would put it up here in case someone tries to move it. Contact numbers are in the pic and there is a link to the post. https://www.facebook.com/groups/539881653488828/search/?q=stolen%20radio

I do not remember if when I put the original parts manuals up, the ones w/o the F/P and Inj data, I was part of the moderator staff, but, the reason for that being put up like that was so that IF someone just decided to just build a pump or delve into it by using the parts manual, as jimmr is...

Nope, page 29 is the gear pump. 26 would be the part of the pump that will let fuel into the CC. See the 2 seals marked #17? Those are the ones that will allow fuel into the oil. See the line that goes through all of those parts? All of that needs to come out to put those two seals in. See the...

I think this is it, https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/m939-nhc-250-cummins-parts-catalog-bulletin-3379699-00.125889/ The reason I did not include the pump and injector info is that one cannot just order the parts called out, assemble a pump and injector. It takes calibration stands and...

There were plastic boxes in the A2s too, and yes, isolated/turned off with the switch in disconnect.

Dye made for oil/fuel, https://tracerproducts.com/all-products/fluorescent-leak-detection-dyes-oils/ Keep in mind, you should have the light from the mfgr of the tracer because all are not the same. Example, the UV tracer that Cummins uses will not illuminate with the lights that Snap-On, Mac...

One of two ways. Front seals in the pump or injector o-rings. Since the top portion on the injector is return, there is no real pressure there to speak of, but, if the o-rings are all hard, fuel will push up past all of them into the cylinder head and down into the CC. Or a cracked head, from...

Usually only one time, 24VDC makes alot of sparks!

And, the TM shows/instructs to do it like G744 said to do it. https://www.steelsoldiers.com/upload/M35/TM9-2320-209-20-3-1.pdf Section 7-56, page 7-210

I kinda like to do the dogbone first. Removing it isolates the batteries so that there is no completed circuit and no chance of arcing if a tool touches metal.

Brands/types. If you got at NAPA, get them from NAPA

It is wise to get test strips and check concentration. Over charging causes issues just like non low silicate. Too much SCA will cause w/p seals to leak and coat liners with a thick coating that takes heat transfer away from the liner. Make sure the strips are compatable with the coolant you are...

Nope on the pink. Fleetguard sca was blue. Another "opinion". Look into Fleetguard antifreeze, the blue stuff. It is conventional but will mix with ELC types. And, yes, STAY AWAY from the red, orange extended life stuff, old engines have pieces internally that the ELC will attack and you end up...
