    transfer case pto output

    maybe the shopvans (my truck started its life as a M185A3) have an oddball air tank arrangement? My tanks are suspended under straight strips of channel that run between the frame rails, not above strips of channel that dip down like in Gerhard's pic and in this one I found of Stretch's truck. I...

    transfer case pto output

    If the tanks are seperated (one close to each frame rail) at the stock height would the driveshaft hit the one relocaed above it?

    transfer case pto output

    I have looked in both places, but the only sprockets I have found with a tapered bore seem to be designed for use with a bushing that clamps on to a a non tapered shaft. I wish I could pull the tank into the frame like that, but I will need the gap between tank and frame to pass mounting bolts...

    transfer case pto output

    Gentlemen, I am having a hard time working out the driveline between my transfer case PTO and a hydraulic pump. My problem is the stock flange will put the cross of a ujoint 3-1/2" to 4" from the air tank. Clearing the tank will result in a very high angle on the joint (one it can't handle due...

    sprag Q's, and yes I searched

    no difference in steering effort from sprag to air shift, but differences due to tire pressure are definitely noticeable.

    sprag Q's, and yes I searched

    If the sprag is working correctly it is one less thing to think about/ deal with while driving (especially if there are sudden/unexpected changes in traction). I actually swapped out a sprag t-case for an airshift in my truck when I couldn’t get the sprag to function. That being said I would...

    sprag Q's, and yes I searched

    I thnk it would only hurt the sprag if you were applying power while the front is locked up. Given the choice I would take a functional sprag over an airshift unless front lockouts are in your future.

    HMMWV Hydraulics

    In my ongoing search for a hydraulic tank (for the deuce) I found a tank on line listed as 20 gallon HMMWV. Did the hydro winch use that big of a reservoir? some other system? or did this guy just assume surplus + flat green =HMMWV ?
