You can do it with the trailer on but not as well. It's simple to remove the trailer, that way you can check the pins that hold it to the tractor as well as the locking bolts that keep the pins (and the trailer) from falling out. Don't forget to disconnect the quickdisconnect for the breaks and...

I just checked the Yahoo Groups site "Gamagoat" It's still up and functional but not much action. The last message from Russel was that he was working on the site.

Just Got the Socialist crap too.

Bill, TM11-2300-372-14-4 shows a RT 524 0r RT 246 mounted on shelf assembly SC-D-446385 in the dash where the circuit breaker panal goes. The antenna for this is mounted on the left front fender(Drivers) and is made up of the antenna bracket assembly SC-F-446392 and antenna AT-912 /RC or...

I think we just steped into the Twilight Zone...

Here's a suggestion, disconnect the bottom of the shocks, Jack up the tractor and put it on jack stands, ( no jack stands contacting the diff or drive axels or wheels. ) Jack under the diff untill it begins to raise the back of the tractor then lower it till the tractor no longer moves down...

Here are the pictures that go with my last post.

One of two things is causing it. The tractor rear diff rotates in front and rear torus bearings. These probably have not been greased since build. If it's taken off road or on rough terrain (over a curb) it will force the diff to rotate. It will lock in that position and cause the tractor to sit...

The Detroit color is Aspen Green. When they were rebuilt/replaced they were OD. You can usualy tell by compairing the engine serial number with the data plate on the dash.

I have a picture of mine but sure can't find the part number.

They are not all the same. As Super Dave mentioned, the center diff. joints are much larger than the front or rear.

The very best way to handle this is to ask a Detroit dealer. It's free and will save you a lot of grief. They will, of course, try to sell you their brand ($$$) but ask them for an equivelant brand. I have used NAPA Extended Life in mine for many years with out a hint of rust or chemical...

None were used ,officialy, in Viet Nam. They were tested in Thiland. But the test vehicles were not close to the vehicles we have. They were lighter and were powered by an air-cooled Chevrolet four cyl. (Corvair) You'll hear a lot of weird stories of where they were used but ,no. Most went to...

One hose is brake and the other is air pressure from the airbox on the engine. This pressurizes the break drums. Do not mix these up. They are marked at the top as to which is which. That devise shown in the picture, leaking, is the flame thrower solinoid

I removed the vent end and soaked it, it cleared with air. The diff was replaced....

Fumoto Valve | Qwik Valve™ or http://www.quickoildrainvalve.com/ pick out the size you need. I think it was a T204N, but it was a lon time ago. The N stands for nipple. (To attach your hose to.) As for the spin-on, call your Detroit dealer, tell him what it's for, he'll shock you with a price.

Aluminum is worth a lot of money right now. Hmmm.

There isn't one. As can be seen by the chart it's a industrial engine, the military ordered it as aluminum alloy. The Detroit custom parts manual shows the block as #5198692 (Alum.) This is from Catalog 05/02/03 03D0081090 Military

Should be easy Charlie 6, It's aluminum, Model # 5033692, Engine series # 53MPC, serial # starts at 03D0081090 The diagram shows a 453 but just place the model numbers I've given you in the proper places,

The vent for the rear diff is in the void space at the front of the carrier. If you remove the panel that holds the "Push to Stop" button you can see if there has been water in there. Pretty doubtful if that is where it came from unless it remained submerged. The most likely place for water...
