    M925A2 Hydraulic Specs (Flow Rate and Bypass Relief Pressure)?

    Seems correct to me. You can't adjust the pressure on the truck. The control valve has a built in relief valve that keeps the pressure between 1650-1850. If your not within those specs you have to replace the control valve or check other parts of the system for the problem.

    Mep-002A Not running right need advise

    Ok got an update on the issue. Tonight we finally had time to get together and take a look at it again. Upon checking the timing again it appeared to be correct so with little to loose we pulled the pump back and and set it 180 degrees out. It fired up and ran fine it didn't get near as hot as...

    Question about adding a winch to an M923a2 that never had one to begin with?

    I reused the gasket cause it acts as a shim. I loosened the mount on the transmission and used a bottle jack on the yoke to push it over some and it slid right out.

    Question about adding a winch to an M923a2 that never had one to begin with?

    I didn't think swapping the pto was that bad. It took me about 2 1/2 hours to swap the pto.

    Question about adding a winch to an M923a2 that never had one to begin with?

    Either that or swap someone boxes and driveshafts that's doing a winch swap from an A2 to A1 or A0 that's what I did.

    Question about adding a winch to an M923a2 that never had one to begin with?

    The control box in the cab is different. The cables are the same but the box is different. The pto driveshaft length is different also. When going from A0 or A1 to the A2 models.

    Sometimes with the new copper washers you have to tighten it and loosen it a few times to get them to seat.

    M931a2. What is this ?

    It could be moisture or if it's a consistency of a lubricant check inside the boot and see if it's coming from inside or if something got sprayed on the outside of it from a leaking pinion seal or something else. If it's coming from the inside there's a good change you have an outer ctis hub...

    Air or a fluid?

    M931a2. What is this ?

    That is the valve for the ctis. The rubber duckbill let's air out through there when lowering tire pressure.

    Mep-002A Not running right need advise

    The guy rebuilt the pump himself. If I remember it started to smoke a little but nothing major. After we let it cool down if fired right back up but was losing power after about a minute and was super hot and you couldn't even put your hand on the valve cover.

    Hi I am looking at a mep-002a to purchase this will be my first one so I dont have much experience with them. The one I am looking at the guy had removed the ip and rebuilt it but never reinstalled it. He wasn't sure how to put it back on properly so we installed it today it was the orginal one...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Installed a new Purair dryer from an mrap. And had a perfect working ctis until the other day I got 5 flashing lights. I tracked it down to the air hoses on the intermediate axle and replaced those. She's good as new now!!!!
