Started the day by getting the fuel system working on the driver side tank. Then washed out the cab and some of the front side to get most of the dirt off. Crawled underneath to look at the crane PTO and found this on the underside of the crane

A Eaton/Fuller was stuffed into a m819 by a member here. Had to rotate the transfer case so the front driveshaft would clear.

A quiet hiss from the clutch lever at the rear when you move it.

Yep using 2 people we did that. Clutch in, 4th gear, power divider pulled forward, tcase neutral. On bed the crane lever pulled to the rear, then clutch released. PTO shaft to the crane spins, fluid is almost full, but no operations from the crane. Rear winch works. Big fan of the newer air...

Will do. With the crane not working is there a common failure point there?

Installing a DT466 soon, will post up the results

I tried to talk him into that, he's stubborn haha

This is the modification section.......

Figure I'll nominate mine, why not. 1971 M35A2, Pulling the engine and trans out this upcoming weekend

Why do things always pop up when money is tight. Valence found a box from an older version of the M109, for cheap. Would need to be rebuilt but the roof looks fine and the main frame looks solid. Problem is, how to transport it and where to store it until I get some land, probably over a year...

Have tinnitus and hearing loss in mid range, mostly from explosions and gunfire. People wonder why I'm making my deuce quieter haha

Funny you say pitchers, I could use a few of Yingling (or however it's spelled).

Some random redhead haha

Pulling the old engine and trans out with Valence and anyone who wants to help on Sept 19th, unless life gets in the way haha.

Good progress with the wrecker today. Fired it up and started testing things out. Drives and brakes, rear PTO works. Rear winch functions like it should. Front PTO is not engaging. The linkage moves, and the little stub shaft spins but the driveshaft from the PTO does not. Crane does not...

Don't know if it was designed that way. During the return trip I didn't risk turning the truck off because it was being difficult to start on the way down (pumps were going out and I hadn't realized it yet). Good thing, because after that trip the truck would not start until the pumps were replaced.

When my in tank pump died on a long trip the booster pump died as well. Couldn't get over 2100rpm after that.

Could be corrosion on the axle at the sealing surface. I'd also check the weight at another scale location, just to verify. Granted the deuce will handle the weight, you are finding the weak links. Is that camper made from a old shop trailer, like a m750?

Is it the same hub that keeps losing seals?
