I think I've got two check valves up at the pump already. The only thing I can think of that the one in the elbow would do is to keep the line primed (not let the oil drain out of the line when not in use). All the TM mentions is a standard elbow and no mention of a check valve at that location...
I've had my t-case PTO on my truck for awhile now (running a hyd pump for my dump). When I pulled the PTO off the donor truck I couldn't remove the bottom elbow for the lube line because it hit the e-brake bracket. I just installed a standard street "L" black iron elbow when I put the PTO on my...
This is the worst part of the whole deal. I think it's awful that people would chew you out for what some attacker did. I try and think the best of the membership here as a whole but when I hear things like this I have to wonder.
When I got my M936 the good soldiers had done some electrical and air line field mods. There were both wires and air lines either in contact with or in close proximity to exhaust parts. The plastic lines are easier to deal with but take some extra care for heat and abrasion over the copper lines...
Some of the other custom spreaders around here run them on the road. I don't know if they are street legal but they do run them. The cops around here tend to no bother the farm trucks much though.
The main problem I see with them is they don't last long on the road. Most people that run them...
Not in TN. I have my class A CDL but it's not required for a air-brake truck up to 80K if it's tagged for farm use and is operated within 150 miles of the farm.
If you can straighten the line out going into the fitting, you may a push it back on there to fix it. As others have said, it looks like the angle going into the fitting is the problem. If you can't straighten it out you may need a longer line.
Yes, I've thought about it. I'm going to see how the Goodyears work out first though. Those big floaters are nice but they cost a fortune and wear fast going down the road. I do think the truck would looks bad a** with floaters all the way around.
Here's one for you.

The truck was purchased at Redstone Arsenal but I have evidence that it originally came from Germany and spent some time at Camp Shelby before being moved to Redstone to be sold.
Thanks in advance.
Here's my latest creation. Some people may think I'm crazy but I bought a M936, removed the bed and front winch, and installed a spreader bed.
The reason I went with a M936 is I needed the double frame and the heavier suspension. I got it for what I thought was a good deal also. Got the truck...
That's what I'm thinking. Diesels don't like water at all and the multifuel is even more prone to hyd lock due to extra high compression. Add that and the fact that your engine ate part of the turbo, I'd say your lucky it runs at all.
I've seen gas engines survive being drowned out but I've...
