After completing another project, I managed to get my truck back on the road. Driving around for about 30 miles or so, I noticed my pto has no leaks yet. So I'm pleased with my work. I will say this, the oil change hasn't seemed to improve the shifting of the transmission. When I drained the...

I got the boots and seals from Big Mikes Motorpool. I thought it was strange for someone who deals in this stuff to have the wrong seals in stock. Now I just jump across the bridge to Memphis Equipment. I can get the parts at their counter sale. All in all, this was an easy thing to due. My...

This is should be my finale update to this post, unless something starts leaking. Thankx to the nice weather, I filled the transmission with the new oil. All I needed to do this job is a large crescent wrench, some teflon tape, a funnel with a flexible tube attached, and the oil. Even with...

Here is my update. I didn't get everything done that I wanted to do. I got rained out, and I didn't get to put the oil back in the transmission. I did remove the woodruff key, and replace the gasket and seal on the main out put shaft. I'll probably replace the oil today or tomorrow. With the...

How do you know, and what kind of damage did it cause? Anyways, I've gotten the woodruff key out over the holiday. I ended up using a small air hammer. I did find a new key at the local hardware store for $1.78. I also replaced the gasket and seal for the output shaft. I got some pictures and...

I have gotten my new seals and boots installed. The parts store got me the National brand 471538 oil shaft seal. This is the correct seal. You can see the size difference in the rubber seals. The outside diameter is correct, but the inside diameter is too small. Installing the seals over...

Yeah, mine recently starting dripping ALOT. I know these trucks are suppose to mark their territory, but their not suppose to drain themselves. I'm using a gasket with a very thin coating of silicone on both sides. I'll have some more info on the seals when I go pick them up after work. I'll...

I've decided to replace all the seals and boots on my M818's pto. The PTO boots have recently started leaking way more than usual. Since I don't know how much oil was in the transmission, or when it was last changed I've been wanting to change it out for some fresh. I'm putting in some Amsoil...
