    M936a1 boom leaks down

    Great! You just need to sneak up on giving that winch power from the tractor. Not sure which port is "in" and which one is "out" other than to look at them by size. Generally smaller is pressure and larger is return. One of the things I want to add to my M936 is a hydraulic hose reel...

    M936a1 boom leaks down

    You mentioned a tractor. Maybe with hydraulics on it? It might cost you a hundred bucks in hoses, but you could disconnect the "in" and "out" on the winch and with some adapters (small hydraulic hose would work) you should be able to power the winch. I wouldn't try to power the entire crane...

    M936a1 boom leaks down

    Just a thought... I am not an insurance man - but the KEY to them (your insurance company) actually PAYING A CLAIM is that you are following the guidelines that are spelled out on the policy that you buy. They are looking for an excuse to not pay a claim - and you know and I know that 150 vs...

    M936a1 boom leaks down

    So, I wasn't sure about the height - so I ran out back with a tape measure. To the highest point on the boom where the roller is I am at 9 1/2 feet. That is with the boom transport jacks in their lowest position. I climbed up to the gondola and there is about 3 inches of "chrome cylinder...

    M936a1 boom leaks down

    No doubt about that! THANKS though for thinking about it. I made a deal for a M1089 and if my insurance guy will get motivated, I can drive north about an hour and drive it home. I think with the A-Frame I have and the knuckle boom on the truck I bought, I should be able to do the job. That...

    M936a1 boom leaks down

    Valve diagram attached below with o-rings etc shown in the "Exploded View". TM 9-2320-272-24P-2 has the part numbers on PDF Page 1077 in my copy. If you need more details - I can rip a few pages out of the PDF and post it. While you are looking at valve bodies, Don't forget that the...

    M936a1 boom leaks down

    I agree with NDT. Cylinder Packing (rubber o-rings and quad rings) get tired over time. My jib cylinder (extension) started out with the "leaking back" problem... Over time, it has finally started leaking around the "wiper ring" on the cylinder. Trouble is that in BOTH situations - without a...
