Memphis and Detroit. I lived in both. Just can't figure out which City is more corrupt.

Working on the manifold So I am diving into the manifold. Looks like another PITA. It appears that the manual pump is made by PowerPacker and is still being made for non-military applications. The middle picture is on one of the screens I removed from the top of the manifold. They appear...

Do those lift rams you are selling require a retrofit to work on an LMTV?

What are LACs, LADs, LWD, and LWCs? Sorry, I'm not familiar.

Anyone know why some manifolds for LMTVs have two valves at the bottom, and others only one?

Looks like all this hydraulic fluid is toxic.

So it appears that the ram for the cab is locked up. When I remove both hydraulic lines, it stays elevated. I ordered a new heavy duty ram from Will. Hopefully it will fit.

Oy.....Yet another adventure in busted knuckles and wallet robbery.

Interesting. Did you use OEM or universal rams?

Good photos at flicker. Looks like you did fuel lines too. I need to do that. There was all sorts of gunk in the hydraulic fluid tank. I assume it is elsewhere. My symptoms sound like the ones you had. The pump seems to be fighting a valve. I'd like to flush the who system. Hard to understand...

Thank you for your input. You are an asset to this forum : )

Awesome!

I already refilled it and the manual pump will not move it. I assume I just crack a line to get the air out?

Well, it first started with the blowing of hydraulic oil out of the air / hydraulic pump. I had noticed that this pump was getting slower and struggled to lift the cab. I checked the manual pump, and at the time of the air / hydraulic rebuild, it worked fine. Are the cab hydraulics PowerPacker...

Yes, nothing works. Air now rushes out from the lower rear of the manifold if right lower control is not pushed in and turned. Cab is stuck slightly open (probably air from hydraulic pump rebuild? ). I can hear the pump trying to work with minimal air, then a valve kicks in and shuts down the...

Thanks Firefinder! I love rebuilding things....well...most things ; )

Yes, thank you. Can you rebuild these? Mine seems to be leaking air out inappropriately.

Where did you find your parts to rebuild it ? Thanks!
