A warm welcome. You have to check all fluids. Engine, trany and portal axel cases. Look for leaks. There are expensive parts inside. :cool:
We can´t recomend an 8 hour drive in that truck. You better haul it. (My thoughts)
TM´s you find at the TM section.
Greetings from oversees.;)
We got all the seals from fox. Today we rebuild our first hyd. Cylinder ever. We take the dipper cyl..Carefully we get out the rod , supporting the cyl.,leaving the lines connected.The hardest thing was to unscrew the Piston bolt. We had to heat the bolt with the welding torch very hot to brake...
There is a FLU419 SEE at the vote thread for MV of the month. Have a look. :cool: ;)

We had a clugged fuel filter and no power at speed. No problem at low idle. The small filter near the tank was full of crap. We changed both main filters, full of dirt/ broun Dieselpest. How low is the temp outside , may be Diesel is sticky
And don´t forget to have a look at the TMs

Thank´s to Guyfang :cool::cool:
A beat blaster is on our wishlist. Saw some vids with the starting fluid method. Never tried this. As long as the tire shop is around the corner it's the safer way . ;)
Checked last friday. All tires 55 Psi. Today....Shock! Put an old one from the shelf. Can't get the tire back over the hump. Have to drive to the tire shop on tuesday.:rolleyes:
I think you have to rebuild it. The broken parts are expensive enough. In Germany a working trany will cost 5500 $ and a new one for ex. for an 1300 will cost 17000$.
