Your right gimp. Will check it when it warms up. It's parked in 3 foot of snow Thanks for the motivator. Will figure it out when I get it out of winter storage.

The more I think about it , if you weren't having problems prior to your air brake issues and adding fluid. What changed. Spent a lot of years rebuilding slush boxes They usually give you lots of hints. Some discreet. Some very bold . Were there any symptoms ?

They gave me good service, If you had hard plastic chips also get the new KEVLAR shield assy and BRUSHES , they are an easy rebuild , just observe during disassembly , I have no problem taking off nuts, It keeps up with my YELLOW electric impact easily. I thought parts were cheap , service was...

You wont be disapointed !

On the tranny locked up and going into reverse in first ect, How did the pan and filter look, I do a fair amount of trans, Mostly trucks , some dozers Was it SLIPPING at all prior to the bad behavior or modulating between gears up and down ?

CSM , I am convinced, No more ATF thoughts here. Compelling argument !!!! Thank you sir

Some Airforce Trucks had a safety chain added with a ring on the end, It was a local option "Safety MOD TCTO" (time compliance Technical Order )When the handle is up just drop the ring over the handle, CANT go down to let brake off, We bought the chain at ace hardware and the ring was a "shim"...

Gents, Ladies. Have a shake and back and fourth shimmy in the front of my 931 A2 , starts about 40 ish , goes away most of the time by 50 /55 makes the steering feel really "LIGHT" , no doubt likely one of three things? 1, bad wheel bearing , HUM. 2, alignment, UMM , 3. or unbalanced tire...

The small bearings and metal particals are an old school BIT code device "BS in Transmission" It wont light any code enunciators but it means the same thing, Be on the look out for a rebuilt!

Push your emergency brake emergency release valve on the dash in after pressure is up. Does the brakes release ?

Hummmm, check the Tech data , there is a section on fluid blowing from dip stick , Just don't remember what the component call out was for the offender , But do remember it being in there, been a few years .

Dog head you crack me up , your right, BUT that's what makes it a GREAT FORUM

drill a small ( read 1/8 )hole at the very bottom of the J in the pipe, it will blow a little , barly noticeable , but let water out,, just like drilling a hole behind the catalytic converter

Nope

hum, 55 gallon drums cargo strapped , best bet is a purpose built. transfer tank, they are very common here for moving fuel to remote locations for skidders and dozers, they come equipped with transfer nozzles and are built to industry standards. if this is a bug out /emergency, no real...

When you were referring to the emergency brakes valve at the handle, here is the result of a tear down inspection , All the white is exfoliated aluminum residue, ( would be rust if it were steel. ) , no saving the valve, worked it for an hour , cleaning lubing ect, quicker to change it . Likely...

Railroad mike, when you find check valves please post, Need some myself, thanks !

Simp, I think based on observation that you put more heavy miles on a 5 ton than any one else here, What do you run in your trans, and what change interval do you use, and how many times have your ABS equipped brakes kicked it ? Just curious, I was going to change to ATF , but think it needs...

Suprman is spot on on his understanding for the addition of ABS, it is clearly stated in a number of ARMY AIR FORCE T.O.s T> D. . He nailed it almost to a tee. Iam on the fence with the trans fluid , I have historicly used ATF in tranies and Transfer cases . I have been tempted to change the...
