    Thanks Davis for the esmet link,,, I went to a Crosley Becket on my crane back when the cable broke and I couldn't find the esmet ends,,, but have been wondering where to get the esmet ends for the winches.

    5 ton wrecker bed

    ive been curious about the synthetic (rope) versions myself,,,, Wonder how it will stand up to the grease and the knicks in the pulleys from years of steel cable use... I can see the synthetic being a little more problematic as far as getting caught in the gaps in the pulleys and rollers.... I...

    5 ton wrecker bed

    Looking good,,,, I see someone didn't close a door, or left something on the deck to catch the hydro tank and dent it.... Im gonna guess the previous Owner or Soldier B.... Figure you will likely put ground spades behind the cab ???? As for the rear drag winch,,, Yes, a mild regearing of...

    5 ton wrecker bed

    here is a pic of the older M816 version, as you can see we old school with the 816 have a gear box that powers the hydraulic pump in our crane turret. This is vastly different than your 936 which I could not find a pic of. Davis or Zebedee likely have more knowledge than I on that topic. Red...

    those contacts are for the lights, 24v dc. problematic if they ever give you trouble. basically they are on 3 rings with insulators internally that will allow contact of the electrical to pass up to the crane lights. maybe I can find a pic on here somewhere.

    5 ton wrecker bed

    I don't think the res on the crane was a counter. the tank if I recall is only about 40 gallons, and the pump is mounted below, but restricted by a filter housing and the hydro swivel. This was my reasoning for dropping my passenger side fuel tank and initially going to install a tool box, but...

    5 ton wrecker bed

    I understand the delima, I have an Eaton Fuller 10spd to go into mine, and thus the pondering for relocation of the hydro pump to the frame rail and the hydro tank on the frame. Then I could run either a shaft drive PTO or a wet kit off the Eaton to power the crane and rear winch, and the...

    Im referring to looking up the shaft facing rearward of the tranny, but RED and I have a different configuration as you. CSMDavis is a bit more familiar with your 936 bed. We -RED and I have the older version... they look identical and are in most aspects except yours is hydraulically...

    5 ton wrecker bed

    on our older 816s the transfer case PTO goes into a Power divider and spins the shaft up to the 90* box clockwise if I recall correctly, thus once it goes through the 90* box it should be spinning counter..... but I think this pump is different than your 936 version.... RED and I have been...
