    M817 Transfer case

    This may need to be posted in the classified section but I could not figure out how so sorry. Anyway I need a transfer case for a M817 Dumper. Not looking to spend a fortune but willing to be reasonable. If anyone has one in the SE area please PM me. I am located in Pembroke, GA. Thanks.

    M817 front hub seal help

    Thanks. The sizes are right but I was just checking in that 73m819 said "I think." I am a nubie with limited cash. Go figure why I have a truck like this. Kinda like owning a bluewater fishing rig. You are better off sitting in the shower letting someone beat you with a bat while you tear up...

    M817 front hub seal help

    I need to purchase the sockets to remove the axle nuts. Does anyone know the exact sizes. According to what i have read they are expensive so I dont't want to screw up and buy the wrong sizes. Also is there an online source where they might be cheaper. Thanks.

    M817 front hub seal help

    I only bought this one to dig a pond. Other than that I don't think I will have any other use for it. It's to expensive to operate. Only 4.4 MPH and thats on a good day. Given the price of fuel now I simply cannot afford to drive it without a specific purpose or making money which is why I am...

    groundog is there any benifit in buying the seal assembly. It is over three times the cost versus what Erick wants for the seal alone. Erick does not have the asembly listed on his sight. Found on other sight. Man I would be glad to do it in 4 hrs. Right now it's 100 during the day. Going to...

    M817 front hub seal help

    Thanks Groundhog. As the oil is visible from the inside I would assume that it would be the inner seal. It is leaking from around the boot. Is there any other place the oil could be leaking from the I should look at. I take it the boot is just to keep dirt out. Correct? When you say...

    M817 Transmission Grinding

    I am new to this site and just purchased a M817. It is rather hard shifting while rolling without grinding and vertually impossible to downshift without coming to a complete stop. Additionally, 3rd and 5th gears will slip out of gear while underway. 3rd will go back in but 5th will not. Would...
