Hey all,
The hoist on my 1950 1.5 ton dump has gotten slow as it gets to the top, and sometimes you can hear the pump cavitating.
So, I'm thinking I need to add some hydraulic fluid. Got the bed up and securely propped. Then excavated all the gunk to find a fill plug ... with no luck.
Where in the heck do you add the oil? The only fill plugs I see seem too low.
Sorry for the silly question...
