Thanks for the replies Folks! Much appreciated. In the manual Rob, does it show if the pump is attached to/driven by the PTO? Would you have any information or diagrams as to how it is attached and powered?

Again I want to say thanks and Merry Christmas to everyone.

Jim. There is no definite pics of the pump mounted on the truck. The pump is driven by the PTO drive on the transfer though, as per

Maybe this will make sense to you it's the pump mounting bracket.

Here's the hydraulic schematic with the pump shown directly below.

I would suggest that the PTO shaft shown on the bottom right corner of the illustrations would show the pump to be mounted away from the PTO.

There is one of these trucks at the local salvage yard in unmolested condition if you need any photos. They may have to wait a few months though as winter has set in.

Hi Rob,

You are becoming one of my Heroes! Is it a working truck or are the parts available to acquire? If yes I will pay you and the 'Yard' to make it find its way to me here lol!

Worse case scenario, photographs are always helpful!

The truck has not been run in a few years, but is a complete truck to be sold as such. I actually used it back in 87 to strip down 30 M151A2 jeeps. Made it easy to un-do the drive shaft bolts with the jeep standing straight up.

Hi Rob Roy: Any chance you might scan the whole manual and post it on the MLU website; or loan the manual to Grant Bowker who is now Mr Manuals for him to scan and put on discs?

Seatyger: I'm going to overhauling one of these beasties next summer too so perhaps we can share info/expertise.

Rob Love: Any inspiring cautions on using the Hiab will be most welcome. I did the course a hundred years ago but haven't used one since I was a sprog!

Cheers! Mike
