    Drash/GET Perkins 20KW no fuel problem

    that is funny. You are correct. I only have one 12" cover and was wondering what in the heck i'm going to do to try to find one of those for my missing vent hole. I'm in Madison quite a bit, mainly on the Middleton (West) side. Can't say i get to Janesville too often, but i have a buddy that...

    20kw Generator - Drash / Applied trailer battery question

    yes, if you could provide all the filter numbers, that would be great. Mine came with none, and all fluids drained. I need all - Air, Fuel, Oil. As well as the correct oil to use, and anything else basic to get it running again. Thanks to this thread, i know the proper batteries to purchase...

    M998 HMMWV - V Belt part numbers?

    love your step by step warthog! Correct, after flipping through pages and pages of TM info, stumbling around for hours I would have figured that out, but this was so much easier. These forums save me so much time! I too blew all belts in the mud. I mean blew them totally off - no power...

    Anyone ever recover a BOH FPU?

    so i could tow the trailer around the yard with a truck that didn't have air hookup. Needed release the rear axle to do so. yes, confirmed only the rear axle needed caging. Worked fine then. thanks again for everyone's help.

    Anyone ever recover a BOH FPU?

    did a google search - http://www.liberatedmanuals.com/TM-9-2330-383-14-and-P.pdf wow - information on everything possible. caging starts on page 3-16. confirms the rear axle only. TMs are amazing, but so much to sort through to find the needle in the haystack

    Anyone ever recover a BOH FPU?

    that makes sense. thank you for the clarification. if there's a link handy for the TM, feel free to share and i'll read up more. thanks again guys.

    Anyone ever recover a BOH FPU?

    I don't think so. Here's a close up picture i found online to try to illustrate. there's no plug to remove to put a cage bolt into, and there's no cage bolt. There's just the large allen wrench style eye to turn where the plug should be. persons have commented how they've caged the brakes on...

    Anyone ever recover a BOH FPU?

    you're correct for a semi trailer. but for the M989A1, there is no hole for a bolt to go into the chamber. Unless i'm missing something ridiculously obvious when i looked at the trailer last, on top of the M989A1 chamber is just a large allen wrench type socket. Guessing just turn that? Like...

    Anyone ever recover a BOH FPU?

    I'm not going to move the M989A1 trailer on any public road. So I'll re-word my question. What tool(s) is(are) required to cage the brakes on a M989A1? has anyone caged the brakes on these trailers? i'll need to move it in the yard with a farm tractor.
  19. bigfishtoys

    Anyone ever recover a BOH FPU?

    what tools does a person need to cage the brakes on a M989A1? Looking at it, is it a large allen wrench? doesn't look like the typical screw provided like on a semi trailer. Need to make sure i bring the correct tools when i go to pick it up.
