Huh not sure why that would make a difference but I'll certainly try it and post the results! I have updated the wheel valves and had updated the pressure xducer but then swapped it back to OEM during some other troubleshooting (turned out it was a wheel seal going out). So back it goes! I've...

I'd like to thank @74M35A2 for posting the connectors this made my task much easier. I made a breakout harness and did a lot of soldering. Got the 9-pin diagnostic broken out and used a DBA from a surplus STE/ICE kit with cable. Then I used a laptop and the Dana software. I can talk to the...

The best oil is lots of good oil changed on time with new filters every time..... If you are concerned I suggest getting Blackstone Labs to send you some free UOA (used oil analysis) kits. When you change the oil you take a sample and drop the prepaid envelope in the mail. Costs $30 for the...

That's an excellent truck as well! I wouldn't be buying a custom unless I was down to just the mortgage. Been up to my eyeballs absolutely no fun. Ever since I paid it all off I've really enjoyed either paying cash or hefty downs and 0%. You can get a classic M35A2 later. Enjoy not feeding the...

Bumping an old thread..... So I picked up one of these kits. Not so much for the connectors and cables but because it appears the be the least expensive way to get a Dearborn adapter. What do I want to do with it? Talk to and reprogram my CTIS on my M936A2. I'll have to make an adapter cable as...

That cover holds a stopper in position for no boost fueling adjustment. You should have both screws. The "tamper proof" are just 5 lobed style with a center hole and all injector pumps seem to have them these days. I don't use them often but need them when I do. Do yourself a favor and get a...

From what I understand talking to some motor pool guys that were stationed in AK the issue was moisture in the lines (for the most part) causing their malfunctions. Occurs to me that, on the truck I have at least, the air supply is right off the wet tank and there's a rather whimpy moisture...

Also you may have different crane motors. Either the Hydreco or Intertech/Parker. The Hydreco was an older motor and has no case drain. The Parker came later and replaced it. Some TM's have the older one, some the newer, some one of each (like my wrecker). They are functionally the same BUT some...

The issue is that in low range it automatically engages the front axle. The t-case is a weak spot and in reverse the output gears can separate and crack the case (under heavy loads). Attached memo on the issue. Instead of installing the interlock kit as the memo indicates most folks disconnect...

If you have a 676422 or 676603 then they came with both J1708 and J1939 communications protocols. AFAIK older units did not. The newer units were black boxes instead of green. My truck came with a 676422 and three bad hub seals. I got it working for a minute then the controller went dead...

I'd love to put one im my M936A2 but where the heck did they go? The transmission tower, CTIS and winch tower are really in the way. Meanwhile I got some used CTIS ECU's and looks like my system is back in action. I'm never going to find the 90psi ECU looks they are gone all snapped up so am...

Finished replacing the third (of three) CTIS hub seals and got the system working. It was really cool for a couple days until the ECU went dead aua

So you might be wondering what the heck could cause such damage? What happened? Well the picture here tells the story. At some point in time, probably prior to RSMS in 2012, this thing was full of water and it sat there. And sat there..... and sat there.... With this amout of pitting on the worm...

Reassembly of the case is pretty simple. The bearings are a slight interference fit or "crush". In fact the double rollor will slide in to the case if the same temperature but if warmer will not. This concerned me a little so I used some Loctite 638 retaining compound on all the bearings (50ml...

So there were two gears left that I needed and this is the bulk of the cost of the repair. I needed item 12 and item 19. Probably the biggest "win" in the parts department was on item 12 which is NSN 3020-00-262-7572. I got quotes on this from $2,200.00 up to over $7,000.00 from the NSN folks...

Right. Now the money stuff. I needed gears..... Once again I recommend eBay because why not? As luck would have it I found item 7 for $122. No kidding. Wish I could have found the others that cheap! I hadn't actually thought I could afford to replace it but at that price absolutely. Picture of...

Now it was time to look for parts (see attached from TM -P). Obviously I needed all new bearings, gasket, seal and drive gear. Note that there are only two types of roller bearings item 6 (qty 3) and item 10 (qty 1). Some quick looking you'll find that item 6 is an SKF 309 and item 10 is a 5212...

Disassembly of case is fairly straightforward. I used a cheap Harbor Freight 12 ton stand up press I inherited with my place. If one needed they could build an adequate tool with lumber or unistrut; but the cheap press works great. A bearing splitter like the one in the picture was handy for the...

Posting this to document some information that may come in handy to others. Item rebuilt was on a M936A2 but should be the same for other platforms as the bed and crane are similar. Synopsis: New to me M936A2 rebuilt by RSMS in 2012. Sat until 2016 when bought by previous owner. Stored inside...

Well I fixed the right two rear hub seals. There was shredded rubber fluffy crap in there. I assume the seal. I changed all the fittings over to JIC. This required 4 new 3/4" 45 degree NPT/JIC adapters and tube ends. The tube ends were expensive but at least they are longer, have more grip and...
