So while on youtube I got a targeted advertisement for a tool that uses a laser to analyze vibration in motors and drivelines. http://www.fixturlaser.com/Shaft-Alignment/Fixturlaser-SMC/ I have no idea how expensive it is but it sounds awesome!

That MHC is killer. I think I got to get one now.

The area around the back bed. What is above it?

Since I'm going to be working on the hydro system what is the easiest way to drain it to do a fluid replacement?

Someone mentioned aircraft fluid that has some kind of desiccant properties in another thread. Has anyone looked into this?

I'm about to fix my cab latch. Looking at the TM I can find the elbow connected to the cab latch. I would like to cap it off to see if I can tilt my cab to remove the whole latch to work on it in my garage. Searching the part I turn up the eaton elbow with description: Male SAE to Male JIC 90...

what hydro fluid is that?

ok found it. It's in TM 9-2320-365-34-2 section 3-103 Intake - 0.015 in. (0.38 mm) Exhaust - 0.025 in. (0.64 mm) Ranges: Intake - 0.012 - 0.018 in. (0.30 - 0.46 mm) Exhaust - 0.022 - 0.028 in. (0.56 - 0.72 mm)

You can put a wrench on any belt driven accessory to rotate the engine. The intake/exhaust tolerances should be on a build plate on the engine.

I think another member has designed a 3 point system and is licensing the design.

Regarding the hard fixed vs 3/4 point system: This design point people seem to have strong views on both sides of the fence. From my research I have heard that the Unimog and European truck builders make a 3/4 point system because the Unimog itself has very flexible frame rails as part of the...

When you did your powder coating of the dash. Is there any kind of kick plate to cover up the air lines under the dash going to the floor near the steering column? Mine are exposed.

You are farther ahead of your build then I am. (still sorting out mechanical problems). Thank you for sharing this design. I really like it. It's great to visualize how much you can pack into the space. When you say HiLo style camper. Do you mean a lifting roof or a 2nd bed that descends from...

I love this diagram. Is there any chance I could get one for my truck?

CALIFORNIA this is the best information I can find. 362. A "house car" is a motor vehicle originally designed, or permanently altered, and equipped for human habitation, or to which a camper has been permanently attached. A motor vehicle to which a camper has been temporarily attached is not a...

I have not checked the hinge out of the driveshafts yet. The tires on the rear are less worn. Would it be good to rotate those to the front of the vehicle regardless of possible driveline troubles?

My front and rear tires are different wear level and I noticed that when I add a load to the truck I get some whine in the driveline. I figured I should make sure all the wheels are the same size so there is no binding. Does that sound like a good idea?

Ok I found the one shop that does shaving of tires in the bay area and they can only do something as large as a 32" tire. I guess at this point I need to order a matching set of tires or find a clever way to shave them down myself.

Seems the big rig shops are not open on saturday/sunday so this will have to wait till monday.

It was not pinned when I got it. The passenger side air spring area dumps a bunch of air. I just need to order/install a fresh spring there and then go see if the drivers side is working.
