Update just to let anybody know. It was the pump. They put another one on it and it now dumps fine.

Thanks for the info. That might be an option I do

10-4. Thanks

Thank you. Where can I purchase them at? I’ve searched but can’t find anything but new leaf springs.

Does anybody know if the bushings in the front leaf springs of the m809s can be replaced or do you have to replace the whole thing? Thanks Eddie

Well I would agree with you on that but the problem is is that everything has been replaced with bran new parts except for the pump they have all then rebuilt ones. The first rebuilt pump we put on it would not even lift the bed the second one worked fine for about 2 dumps and them got weaker...

Yessir thats what I was thinking. I am hoping that our problem is the rebuilt pumps. Hopefully we can get them to put a new one on it and that will solve our problem. But I’m starting to think that they are gonna keep throwing excuses until our 60 day warranty is up. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Hey man I don’t know how to private message nor work this technology. But I am interested and it’s a long story of what is going on with this truck in a nut shell it was working fine but drive shaft came off and lots of damage. Everything has been replaced and adjusted but has been down hill...

I am having the same issue with my m817. Do you ever find your problem?

Yes I have manually moved the lever from under the truck with save results. And thanks about the oil because I didn’t think that that was an issue.

Hey guys I’m new here and looking for any help I can get. We have a m817 dump truck that the drive shaft for the pto came off of the transmission side and stuck into the ground while drive and it broke the input shaft of the hydraulic pump. Truck is loaded. Get a new pump put on and it will not...
