Very interesting, I am considering doing the same thing or something similar. Has it helped with the Clutch pedal/smoother shifting etc....? Would appreciate any more photos you might have regarding the Clutch and Release Collar/Bearing and shouldered washer. I am trying to determine if...

Can some kind soul on here tell me which pieces/parts of the Kingpin/Steering Knuckle to put the Molybdenum dusulfide ( MIL -G-21164) grease on? and which pieces to put the Sealing Compound ( MIL-S-46163) on? Many thanks

Yeah, that's exactly what I'm doing. As I was "flushing" the Hub (on the 6th or seventh flush by the way) I found a piece of metal that was large enough to see letters on it. I assume its part of one of the Gears, probably the larger lower, but I don't know for certain yet although the...

The vehicle seems to be back to driving normally again as best I can tell, although I haven't driven it at higher speeds for long enough to say for sure. I have drained the Hub 5 or 6 times now and after each time I take it for a spin and then let sit overnight. Usually the next morning I can...

Used the SEE to Clean out a small pond for about a week, it did well but I pushed it pretty hard. A day or two later I finally cut a tire while clearing brush, sidewall ripped open by large rock. While changing that tire I noticed a fairly significant leak coming from the other front wheel...

Anyone have experience (hopefully good) with mounting a rearview/backup camera system in a 419 SEE? Seems like it would be very beneficial when towing or operating implements or just about anytime while driving a SEE because obviously the rearview mirror is just a decoration with the spare tire...

Sorry, I meant assuming I CAN get the Loader working correctly. Obviously I would not have joined this group without a CAN do attitude

I finally got my 419 about a week ago. Found one in good shape compared to most of them I had been seeing for sale lately. Rebuild was in Nov 2008, odometer had 123 miles and works, and the plates/tags seem to indicate that a new loader and backhoe were put on in 2008. That being said it...

Thanks to everyone for all of the replies and info/answers. I am still in the planning/pre-kinetic phase, but have it narrowed down to a few options. the Excavator mounted hydraulic submersible pump I am considering is made by Eddy they make several sizes and I am looking at the smallest which...

Can someone please tell me which Hydraulic Pump powers the "Auxiliary Hydraulics", the two lines/hoses on the drivers side? I've been trying to find an excuse to justify buying one of these for a while and I may have found one if I can concoct a way to use one of these hoses to run/power a...
