Sorry for the delay, there are several fitting sizes, I took some pics, got the paint off a couple to see the markings the other fittings are heavily painted, I can get wrench sizes if that helps, but I need specifics, there's hoses and fittings all over this thing.
That information makes sense based on what I read in the manual a while back , I'm going to have to go out of my way to get eyes on an actual truck, there is an Army Depot base here maybe I can go talk to those guys
Thanks for that research and sharing it here
It's on my "things to do" list, been busy with other stuff unfortunately.
I plan on studying the heck out of the TMs, or hopefully run into a guy who worked on these specifically before actually doing it.😁
The wrecker I was referring to is the lmtv Wrecker. So can a single stage pump be either positive displacement gear or variable flow vein or piston Style?
I did a lot of reading online and I was under the impression that a single stage was positive flow. I definitely don't want to get the wrong...
According to the maintenance manual it's a single stage pump I think that's just an ordinary positive displacement pump and I got the impression from the hydraulic guy when I told him that that it was that simple.
It helps a great deal and it looks like other than the hydraulic power there's a Cannon plug with 12 volt power going to it.
I talked to a shop today and they recommended I set it up with the pto setup. He said he can convert it to a direct flange Mount or stick with the driveshaft depending on...
Pay dirt! TM-9-2320-366-34-3 has all the removal/replacement of the MHC and its componants, the appendix has the electrical and hydraulic schematics. start looking at PDF page 1151 for the hydraulic system foldouts, 1161 shows the first schematic that includes the winch/hoist and several...
I'm in the process of downloading the 6x6 mtv manuals (slow connection), seems only the 4x4 are uploaded here. I have noted so far that the TM-9-2320-366-34-4 has a lot of info on maintenance and repair of the crane, but didn't see specific info on the winch yet.
I am accessing and downloading...
Yes, read that early in my searches. It actually made me feel that model was not suitable for me. Too hard to adapt, loss of frame space.
The fmtv crane is one structure and sits on top of the frame, outriggers are integral and at an angle. If the setup was "perfect" it would have outriggers...
This one is definitely a 5000 pound model off of an fmtv I saw it on the truck. It did strike me that there is a similarity and that a lot of info might cross over. I can't believe that there's no manual on the One You're mentioning there's always some documentation it just might be impossible...
I really appreciate that. There is a cannon plug that went from the truck to the crane that the guy I bought it from has 12 volt power, but I need to find out if theres anything more to it. Theres more than 2 pins, think 4 or 5
****, I went through them, but now I see I was looking for the 1083, the 6x6 versions. I'll look through and see if any 4x4s had a mhc.
In the meantime I found a bunch externally, I might have more for the library soon.
I am looking for the FMTV service manuals, currently only seems to be the -10 operating manual.
Specifically I am looking for the 5000 lb crane maintenance and hydrauluc pymp specs.
I see and have all the detailed manuals for my m931a1, but was hoping to find the same detail for the crane...
