    M925A2 Transmission losing oil

    The one hole in the bell housing should be open, the other one with the plug is just a holder hole for the drain plug. You move it over to the open hole when you have to go into water.

    Wrap it with some tape then cut it off with a little cut off wheel, like a 4.5' grinder.

    Driving a 936A2 VS 923A2. Wrecker VS Cargo

    The little FYI that I have ran into with the wreckers is fill the tires to 90psi, drives a lot safer and nicer. I was driving my wrecker with only 70psi in the tire (11.00x20's)and I hit a bad spot in the road from trucks making groves. There was some puckering go on then!!!!

    My ABS system finally works

    That is good news on the ABS light. I have one that it is on, you can hear the relays do there thing but the light stays on. May have to give the brake thing a try. Be safe on the roads and stay warm!!!

    Wrecker Boom Support

    I did not know what color to paint it, so I went with green. A lever lock is a good idea also, but you still have the hose brake problem.

    Wrecker Boom Support

    The wreckers do not have any type of safety items like most equipment has.

    Wrecker Boom Support

    I have been worried about the wrecker at shows and displays about someone getting on the wrecker and letting the boom down on someone or something. So I made a boom support that goes around the cylinder. That way if the lever gets moved or a hose brakes the boom will not come down.
