M977 HEMTT Acquisition
- Thread starter HASSON1911
- Start date
dk8019 - I didn't notice the air system draining any faster than my 5 ton did. With air brakes you can't pump them else you will drain the air very fast.
HASSON1911 - I took mine to a show in PA last weekend and I would of liked the jake for some of the steeper grades. I smelled the brakes getting hot a few times.
All of the wiring on mine is intact and the jake was hooked up on the old motor so I assume it worked. Even the crane remote is working.
Its good to see a few more people getting HEMTT's so we can hopefully help each other out in the future.

I know I like that more guys are getting these to work together Ive had a couple problems i needed the books that any owner could had solved in 2 seconds, but I got enormous help from stalwart with filter numbers when even Oshkosh them self couldnt help...or wouldnt.
I have all of the manuals in PDF and hard copy. They are essential to any Military vehicle owner.
When my crane was stuck all setup I had no idea where the problem was or where to start. After 20 minutes reading the troubleshooting steps in the manual I was able to figure out where to start and another 20 min later had the problem found and bypassed.
For filters I looked in the 24P tm and Google searched for the part numbers. I was able to find all of the ones I was looking for.

How did you get to the front valve stems? I have replacements for all 8 wheels, but last time I looked, I couldn't figure out how in the world one gets to them without removing a wheel!

Carefully and painstakingly haha, needle nose pliers on the union(threaded piece) while using off hand to turn the stem, once you hit the wheel reset and do it again haha, verify it's sealed by spraying with high concentrate soap water.
Also where did you get replacement of the angle pieces my spare and one other tire didn't have one and would love to get them all with them.

Well it was a drizzly day today, so I changed oil and fuel filters with my dad
Primary fuel- car quest 86792
Oil canister - car quest 85133
Now to get another weekend off I don't work and tackle the tranny and hydraulic filters, still need the oring for the hydraulic canister filter.
