i thought this would be a fun thread to revive if only my post is the only new one. Funny how 6 years ago or our hemtts were worth that of a nice house or a good truck down payment, and now you see them leaving auction for 15k or under. Im glad i got on the cheap side of this fence!

Alright this just popped up on my news feed. It's 3 years old but I just want to know if there's a SS'er on here who did this and if so, why weren't we invited haha https://youtu.be/yIPQ6_h4dcA

Vote for HASSON1911, this is my 2nd month running with my hemtt, we almost had her last month, but today is a new day! 1988 M977w/w

ill throw mine in again i almost won last month

For those that change out hydraulic filters and are having problems the housing and filter for the high pressure one that is mounted behind the primary fuel filter is a Pall HH9800 and all associated parts can be referenced to it. Heres a really good pdf to reference

Stalwart I got a dream to get my hemtt to yours level of restoration

I found that to be a false tale to, I consider my learning time quit short I'd say 25mi. And for me I can put my hemtt in almost any space the m925 can fit given the length.

I haven't yet it'll be dex3 specific but probably whatever is cheapest and still meets requirment The fuel filters are very easy to fill full and spin on, and the canister take the top off drop new one in and fill to top with fuel. Start engine let it establish prime on its own. I had to...

That's what I love about farm discounts haha I'll run dex3, I don't suppose the truck will ever be pushed hard and I'm more for putting in what they recommend even if I have to stomach the price haha. A side note that anyone can take with a grain of salt, when I changed the final fuel filter...

Interesting my Allison mechanic said you can either run atf dex3 or if it's severely slipping a heavy motor oil(not a long term fix just from point a to repair shop fix)

Count your blessings I wish mine had those spin on haha Your correct my auto correct wanted to put hydraulic, the bottom one is the Trans.

Yea the one on passenger side engine behind oil cooler is the canister type, my hydraulic has a spin on on the bottom of chassis and a canister on the passenger side mount to cantry crane. The hydraulic canister is a PTI P98-030-HG-B I replaced it but it still leaks think I'm missing one so...

Well it was a drizzly day today, so I changed oil and fuel filters with my dad Primary fuel- car quest 86792 Oil canister - car quest 85133 Now to get another weekend off I don't work and tackle the tranny and hydraulic filters, still need the oring for the hydraulic canister filter.

Ideally a small but versatile 4x4 scout vehicle

Get a M985, I got the M977 and after having it thats my only gripe is to have a larger crane. Unless you specifically want the tractor then the M983 that is.

When the funds or time allow it, it probably wouldn't be the dumbest idea to rip her out and get an acid wash from a coolant company. I've done that just as a precaution along with other preventive maintenance and as such haven't a car yet that took an early retirement before 250k.2cents

That's what I was afraid of, oh well now that I got my hemtt I'll keep a look out. Haha

Awesome truck, anyone know the frequency of which the lssv come up for sale? If i could find an 08 I'd sell my dd right now! Keep up the good work!

2nd place guys come on were so close, I've been hard at work this weekend making her fully operational for a no short cut video of the operation of the m977 hemtt VOTE HASSON1911 VOTE FOR THE HEMTT

It does but the cab of the 5 ton van see just about a straight line over the hemtt haha
