That is what i have read and probably will, though it is nice to have options and there are places i could see wanting to go that those parts would be under water for a few minutes

That is what i have read and probably will, though it is nice to have options and there are places i could see wanting to go that those parts would be under water for a few minutes.

I am starting to see why they do that. If you use the split kind it does not have a spot for the airhose when you turn on the 4x4 and there was another reason that i forget now that ei thought like orginal was better. I do have a help ticket in with them. At this point i do not see it an obvious...

Has anyone replaced the boots on the axle shafts? I have one of the axles loose and I am now stuck. I do not see anyway to get the one piece boot that the military used over the ball on the axle tube and into place. Is this a case where I get some tire changing spoons and force it or is there a...

I went about fixinging mine the hard way. If you were closer i would offer to fix yours for the cost of a new one.

Look back in this thread there are a whole lot of posts talking about how to figure it out and suggesting some words that may help describe the project in front of you.🤪 Hey at least you have access to a wiring diagram those guys were just using the tm. Good luck and let us know what words you...

Working on the air lines, thank you all for the diagram a while back on how it should lay. Have any of you guys actually worked on yours? Looking at mine with an eye to getting air to the tranny, there is only a vauge resemblance to the diagram. Near as i can tell only way to get air to the...

Hi all, Last year I started working on one of these. It probably should have been parted out, but has proved to be a great learning experiance. I replaced the engine and transimission last winter before calving out hundreds of cows, then making hay and now my slow season again I got the cab back...

Looks like you need to download 5-2420-224-34 and then start around page 5-16 STEERING KNUCKLE AND FRONT AXLE FINAL DRIVE REPLACEMENT. I am pretty sure that will cover what you are doing. I think step 11 is your seal. Looking it over, it does not look too bad. There are a number of seals a...

Thanks for the detailed write up. I did end up opening the pump all the way, very simple inside and no check value other than the one that can be removed from the outside. At this point I have replaced all of the fuel hoses on the mog and tightened all the new clamps and after a week it is...

Priming the engine problems. When I go to prime the engine by hand it seems like there is a problem with the check value. If I pump fast enough I can fill the first filter, but as soon as I stop it starts dropping fast. I checked the small check valve beside the primer, it looks fine. I traded...

Thanks that will help a lot :)

Now that I am putting things back together I am starting to mess with the air system. Is there such a thing as an air diagram similar to the wiring diagram? Anything on the air system I should be expecting to be messed up with a mog that has been sitting for a long time?

That is probably the only part of mine that is not rust 😀 It is a good chunk of steel which I would not mind having around and i do know someone who makes it your way once in a while. why are you removing it?

I think you are on to something with this as all four stamps are each beside their own weld and these 4 welds are the biggest welds that I know of on the machine. Still made me smile when I found those. For anyone else looking remove the bottom piece of the roll over protection and check the...

Starting to put the mog back together. While painting the bottom piece of the roll over protection found 4 places where this pistol or revolver is stamped into the steel. It is cool. Does it mean anything?

Talking about the nylon cup looking things? I was looking at those, how do I remove them even on the bench? I am currently thinking cutting or chiseling it out, but seems there should be a better way.

Here are pics of the new one. I got it off of Ebay. The owner bought it mil surplus and knows nothing about it other than it came off a mog. It looks the same as the one I got, so I will agree with him :) Off to a good start. I have never seen this stuff. It was damp to the touch, but seemed...

Got a new to me transmission today. Here you can see the old rusty one.

I will go look for that next time I am out in the barn. The engine in my SEE has problems, bad pitting in one cylinder and a bad scrape in a second. For some reason I do not seem to be able to find a machine shop that will touch a mercedes engine in Southern Oregon. Looking like I will probably...
