    M920 starting issues.

    Did you try the shifter? Sounds like neutral start may be a issue. Costs nothing to move it a few times (shifter) and tru it again.

    Winch Lubrication Level

    These have 2 "sumps", correct? Passenger side (hyd motor) and Drivers side (cross-shaft, etc). I did look over the Lube Order best I could. Do not see how cross shaft is lubed if oil level is not held high in drivers side. Thanks for any help!

    sticky winch engage

    Thanks for your reply. I do hate to ‘beat on’ nice machinery. I am still unsure of how high to keep the oil level on the frame/left side of the unit. It looks as if the level is high it would lubricate the drum shaft better.

    Winch Lubrication Level

    Hi all, I have a 1991 A2 with a poorly functioning winch. How much lubrication oil should be in the frame side of the winch reservoir? The Lubrication order is unclear of the oil capacity. It looks to me that this oil level should be quite high. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

    Air Dryer Alternative

    Thank you again- Sounds like a good upgrade if they fixed the blowing valve trouble. My son got good at bumping ours with a wood dowell at roadside!

    Is the Haldex Da34110 more reliable than the original one? Is this a bit newer model? Thanks!

    Thanks. The gear lube looks ok as to level and clean. My service replacment did not have a level-plug drilled, but I checked with a "coat-hanger dipstick" . No grease fitings around engage=lever. If units should move easily all the time, I got a problem I guess. Thought they may normally...

    Air Dryer Alternative

    Hi all, I have a 1991 A2 with the ABS sisten and all. I have the Haldex N50011F air dryer. It tends to stick open sometimes where the system blows down for the past couple years. I have been playing with it by cleaning and giving it its best shot at working. Are there any practical civilian or...

    sticky winch engage

    Hi all . Have a 1991 A2 with a once replaced "Med Duty " front winch. It needs few few medium "bumps' with a heavy rubber mallet to engage or disengage the lever. Jogging unit and or break only helps a bit. How "real world normal" is this, and if bad- is there a basic fix? Thanks- good to have...

    Coolant leaking into cab from heater box ?

    Quick note- 1980's "fox bodie" ford cores are nearly a direct drop in and easy to get. Those were Mustangs, small LTD's, Fairmounts, et cetera.
