    M936a1 boom leaks down

    M936a1 boom leaks down

    @Mullaney how much the booms weigh? my tractor has 10' of height reach and 3000 lbs of capacity. if i ever have to do it, I'm thinking of how to do it too. plus its only the ext section that needs to get rmvd from the main boom right? the ext section can't weigh that much huh?

    M936A2 aftercooler removal

    has it been successfully accomplished of permanently removing the aftercooler without installing an intercooler? Or would installing an intercooler be best? reading in the -10 TM, it says the aftercooler cools the air prior to entering the intake. Is coolant temp of 200+F cooler than the forced...

    sticky winch engage

    I too have an issue with free spool/engage lever. Iv had to use persuading tool to free spool it. My thoughts were the cable was to tight to allow any any “rocking” of the drum a d gears, to allow it to move the internals. After persuading it and leaving the cable loose, but setting and locking...

    M939A2-series Fuel Prime Fixes (No start, lost prime, won't start)

    Iv had similar issues of loosing prime. My ip may be bad bc i can pump and when i hear fuel/air bubbles gurgling in the tank, i stop and it fires right up. im assuming fuel isnt suppose to bypass something in the ip to allow fuel to return to the tank while using the primer pump.

    M936A air leaking into differential

    wow, i can't believe they would make such minuscule changes between models. thanks for the info. hopefully they didn't change anything out and if not i found a 934a0/a1 expandable van. hoping it has the nhc 250, not the 8.3. i would much prefer the 809 series expandable, but a manual swap is...
