If you can run attachments under load with the pto engaged then the clutch isn't the problem. Just because the shovel is stowed and locked doesn't mean that there isn't a failed interlock mechanism screwing things up. Most vehicles equipped with pto driven equipment have lockouts that prevent...

I know that. SW, you aren't going to be the rally commander anymore or what?

I was wishing I'd find a squirreled away rifle or LMG when I did my engine and trans swap, but alas... nothing.

Miss volunteering for him? Huh? What did I miss?

That won't be transmission, that'll be either clutch, or some kind of safety lockout maybe malfunctioning. Make sure the rear shovel isn't engaged at all. I don't think the truck is supposed to move without it stowed or at least locked out.

Yaaayyyy rat turds!!!!!

Both rear axle shafts may be bent. You don't know the history of the truck. Easy to tell though, theyou are full float axles. Just pull the axle shafts one at a time and try it. Otherwise it may be the center support ball in the double cardan joint of the front driveshaft. I had a jeep Cherokee...

I think we have a veterans day parade here too. If not, I may come that way. Yes the new drivetrain is wonderful!

Hmmm...

You'll put spin on fuel filters at the top of your priority list unless you like changing injector pumps...

FEE? But there are so many others that will do it just for the amusement!

Never any occurrences of this happening in the older M 8xx series trucks at all?

There has been speculation about whether installing a stiffer spring, or shimming the stock one with washers might make a difference, but no reports of it being attempted yet.

I've seen way too much trash get around these filters regardless of the element you have installed. Poor design. I had a mechanical booster pump full of trash and rust because if it.

Yeah I think your right. I forgot to get that from you at the rally too. Not that I'll ever need it.

You can convert the primary to spin on with a $27 napa filter base and a $13 filter. My primary is a 10 micron filter with water drain. If you buy from fleetfilter.com, you get napa filters and bases at about half the in store cost.

I was coming out of my rack just as the convoy was leaving. Didn't have my contacts in yet, and had too much crap in the bed of the truck to secure to just fire up and try to catch up. I had been laying in my rack for a while waking up first and figured I would hear an announcement before...

It should move freely, but have some spring pressure on it from the governor rod. It should not try to stick in any position. Spray it down with Kroil. Having sat that long the hydraulic head button has probably popped off anyway, but you might be lucky. Sometimes they stay.

You can put a rubber gasket there if you want. The base plate that it sits on is spring loaded. Plenty of room. Or you can just do away with that garbage and install a spin on filter base and filter that actually works.
