That gets my confidence up! Just need to choose the right package...

That’s what I thought. I called Meritor. He could not help me without the axle model number. Oshkosh is only going to help you find replacement parts. What I’m looking at is the backing plate on the spider brake assembly. It appears to be a common bolt pattern. I’m wanting to swap it out with a...

Ok thanks.

I’m planning to do something really cool with one of these axles. Do any of you guys have a tag that still on one of your 7 ton axles that shows the model number? I have looked at three trucks and have not found one. I called osh Corp. The schematic that he could see shows one on the yoke...

Thanks, Good to know! 5” lower gets it where I feel more comfortable.

Just picked up my M332. Here it is behind my MK30. I’ll say these trailers are much taller than they look in pictures. Probably be fine for hauling a bobcat or a tractor but a large Backhoe or taller equipment might be too tall for the road. Could take down a few phone drops for sure. But my...

Done!

For the record-if your looking for the puller They have the dimensions of the puller on this page. https://www.toolsource.com/pullers-and-pushers-c-194_621_623/pitman-arm-puller-sheppard-m100-p-139743.html

I found a solution. I found new replacement pitman arms. I’m just going to cut the old ones off. They are $50 versus $300 for the tool to remove the old one. https://dpequip.net/shop/military-vehicle-parts/2530-01-479-1968-pitman-arm-mtvr-7-ton-oshkosh-3310447-3000107-rh-sheppard-2591674/

Have you used the puller? It’s hard to tell if it’s big enough for the pitman arm on the 7 ton. The ones they picture the tool being used on appear to be big but still smaller. That tool is a couple hundred bucks. It would be nice to know if someone has used it before I order it. I broke 3 gear...

I did find these pdf’s online. They will be useful once I get this arm off.

I have seen some of those. It’s not as easy as it looks. I reckon I’m going to need to take the whole bracket off and put it on a bench.

Any suggestions on how to to get the steering arm free of the gear box? I’m sure someone out there has done this.

So I just about had everything wrapped up on the truck and the gear box sprung a leak. Would you guys know why? Its not leaking from the seals. There is what appears to be a weep hole in the bottom of the gearbox. It comes out pretty fast when turning the wheel. I just want to be sure its not...

Never mind. That snap ring appeared to be a solid circle the first 5 times I looked at it.

Does anyone know how to get this ring gear off? Im trying to replace the CTIS seals.

Any chance I could get a close up pic? Last thing I wanna do is burn this computer out.

Have any of you guys installed the A/C kit on a 7 ton MTVR? Mine is almost done. Everything’s installed the vacuum is pulled waiting to be charged. But I have one wire left it runs to the computer on the engine. The instructions are very clear with the numbers on the wires. But... my harness is...

Just curios do you know how many of the threaded rods for lifting the tire off the ground are usually issued with one of these trucks?

I want to keep them I have 2 complete trucks.
