I ran a come-along over the roll bar and winched it up to get enough room for the ratcheting pole. The strap was added afterward as an additional safety measure. I did not try and lift with the ratchet strap / chain at all. Needed a sky hook, but I keep it with my board stretcher, and haven't...
Tilting the cab is not too hard, but not for the faint of heart. I don't think I would do it just to put on the V belts. There is a lot of work that I need to do replacing hoses and electrical lines. The oil pressure sending unit, going to pull the starter and have it gone through. And a lot of...
I don't know what you guys are complaining about. It is probably the easiest of the three to adjust it in and out.
You don't even have to lay down or anything.

I went out to measure mine, but it is in 3pt stance, so only about a foot off the ground. :)
Given that the army likes to keep everything the same as much as possible I am pretty sure it is the same as on duece and a half truck which is 31".
Speedwoble is a good guy, I should have done that. I have made my own brackets. If they don't work, out I will contact him.

I have decided to tip the cab on mine. I will let you know how it goes, but from the manual it doesn't look too bad, and I think it will save me in the long run.

I finally got the last of my SEE home today. There was a spare tire on the it when I bought it, but not when it arrived. Working with the shipper and GP they decided that it was not on the SEE when it left the Yard. Eddie from GP was great, and attached a spare to a pallet. It took a while to...
Probably unrelated to the restriction discussion, but does anyone have an idea of why I can't get the boom to come back far enough to get the latch on it? I have been pretty gentle with it, but it gets to within about 4 inches or so, and will go no further.
As a result, I have left it in a 3...
That sounds like a plan to me. I told you I was going to come for a visit to get SEE operational training some time. I will even supply the cooler of refreshments.

Does any one have a good weight on the spare tire? When my FLU419 was picked up, it didn't have the spare on it that was there when I bought it. GP is making good on it, but I need an approximate weight for the shipper. Eddie is guessing 120-150 lbs, but pure guess. Seems low to me but I don't...
I will try to test it later today, in the mean time I followed 911joeblow's advice and sprayed some PB blaster in the socket. I was not sure until I started getting responses if the key was removable, or if the switch was broken. I gave it a tentative poke yesterday and it did not seem to move...
Progress:
I am not sure which hit on the starter / solenoid did it., but it is off the street and in the back yard.
To start it, I need to run jumper cables from the battery to the engine block, and the solenoid. When I connect the negative cable to the block with the positive cable still...
I opened the access panel, and had been hitting the starter itself with a ball peen hammer. I will try hitting the solenoid a few times to see if that works, then pull the starter
