Does anyone else have one of these? I'm curious what PTO shaft option the Yanmar has on it. I've tried decoding the part number, but the PTO option digit doesn't match any of the known PTO option codes. I've also tried calling Yanmar, but they had no clue. When mine gets here, I plan on...

Yeah, I know I could have done a better job on this, but time and money for this project were limited and these welds won't be under any significant load. If you're going for cheap and easy, the way I did it should work as long as you don't put too much stress on the joint.

As suggested, I'll do a post on extending the frame of your FMTV. Disclaimer: I'm not an expert in metal fabrication and there is no way what I've done is as strong as the frame originally was, but its good enough for my purposes. Let's start with some back story... I originally purchased my...

I committed an atrocity and cut and welded my frame rails... This is prep for a 22ft box body that is going on it.

Random question, did your truck come with the white face gauges? Those look pretty slick!

Alright, since no one else wanted to do it... Here the step file Edit...Fixed the extension... https://drive.google.com/open?id=1qpL3g91CmOk-b7D9r3LTJz8Bz43bpCTq

Any chance someone that has an onshape account could just upload a STEP here?

Thanks for getting me thinking! The place to start is looking at electric schematic page 13 of 40 The things you're thinking of are actually the diodes in this pic. That said there very well may be a way to add one or two resistors to enable us to use these LEDs. The problem I saw is that...

Sorry, as in the pin is stored. The suspension is ready to operate just doesn't have air in it.

Looks like the pin is in the storage position. There really isn't a way to disconnect these easily. The air hose is near the top on the other (engine) side. You may need to go push in and turn the knob in the hydraulics box.

I'm 6x6 folk ;) Edit: Looked at -24 and the front and rear ring/pinion appear to be amboid gears, while the intermediate is a bevel gear...or at least thats what the parts description says.

Yes pretty pretty please! Especially if they're priced reasonably Thanks for doing the leg work on this. Edit: I looked at the biggest gears they make on Jegs (10" Ford) and the gear sets run $925 each as a reference point. Anyone know how big our ring gears are?

Not as easily as the turn signal and bright indicators. The lighting on the truck is a 12V system so these spots in the indicator panel are also powered with 12V. Most of the other systems on the truck are 24V, so the indicator lights for these use 24V. Like incandescent bulbs, LEDs are...

That's correct. Here's a link to the full listing of the 12V LEDs that will fit https://www.digikey.com/products/en/optoelectronics/led-indication-discrete/105?k=&pkeyword=&pv1291=5101&pv1291=7878&FV=fffc001c%2Cffe00069%2C4fc0027&quantity=0&ColumnSort=0&page=1&pageSize=25 You should see a...

I'm not a big fan of the incandescent bulbs used in our indicator display. I did a little digging and they are a standard 5mm size that you can also get LEDs in. The problem with LEDs is they aren't designed to handle the voltages these indicator lights use. Most of the indicator bulbs in our...

I upgraded my in cab indicators (turn and brights) to LEDs! I'll start another thread with part numbers and instructions. Before: During: After:

Hahaha, you're not wrong. Just let me dream of those sweet sweet gears

Do it! I would think we have enough people needing these to convince the business guys at Meritor to crank some of these out.

Gotcha. So ours use the same outer sleeve but have a hydraulic damper inside correct? Thats fancy!

Just noticed a leak on one of mine and wanted to ask a quick question before I order parts. In one of the part spreadsheets going around there is a mention of an "Airbag Sleeve" P/N (Firestone W02-358-7074), which is much cheaper. It looks suspiciously similar to the PP part. Does anyone have...
