I wasn't smart enough to see that... I used the sheet about a month ago to get the right filters. Had planned to say thank you and it slipped my mind. I guaged oil capacity by what was in my drain pans - and checked the stick. Started it, checked the stick again. Might have been easier had...

Nice! Thanks Ronmar. I appreciate you digging up the hydraulic tank specs.

Agreed, but a 1084 spends about the same amount of time loading a few pallets into a truck as it would take to recover a few hundred feet of winch cable. I wasn't as specific I might should have been when I mentioned "crane". It isn't like it runs for hours generating heat... I haven't made...

My only real concern is the size of the factory storage tank for hydraulic fluid. It is plenty large enough for a winch with room leftover to feed a lift gate. But, It is pretty small. I guess small is a relative term too when you want to hang more fuel tanks. Under continuous use like on a...

Yes Sir. Sad to report that there are no wires other than for the two switches that were already installed... I feel sure there was an Engineering Change (EC to save cost) that caused it to be that way. :-( Last night I saw a YouTube video where a hydraulic pump was mounted on the driver's...

THANK YOU! Just knowing that it can be done is a good feeling. I will watch the video and see what I can learn. I found The Adventures Of Abel recommended by somebody on these forums. In that series, #108 (on FaceBook) shows the parts listing on rebuilding the cab and tire jack. I noticed...

Mine is a M1088a1 with a Cat 3126. I may be barking up the wrong tree, but getting hydraulics on the truck gives me all kinds of other possibilities too. It seems incredibly stupid that the winch and transmission can't both be in gear at the same time. So the tires turning could help the...

I know this post is from 2015 Derrickl112 but I am in the process of installing a self-recovery winch from a donor parts truck. Any chance you might happen to have any more info you could share or possibly those three winch & pto control switches in your pictures? Or the wiring specifics that...
