Well that idea sucks! 🤣🤣
I don’t understand the balancing part. My simple thinking is just 12 volt to the 12 volt side and 24 volt to the 24 volt side.
Thinking out side the box, does any know of a 12 or 24 volt alternator with a shaft on both ends that we could couple the other 12 or 24 volt alternator to in line to help save space?
Thanks for all the information. It’s very little oil. We are out on another long 5 month road trip through central US. I try only using the brakes when necessary and letting the exhaust brake do most of the work. I’ll continue monitoring it and plan on a in depth investigation when we get back home.
Not sure where the air feed is from. It’s all still original 2003 3126 m1078. All the lines are clear and no kinks. I’ll pay attention to how often it purges. How often is normal?
Just noticed trace amounts of oil venting off the air dryer exhaust port. I have upgraded the drier to the newer style with the replaceable cartridge. Is this normal or am I seeing a potential problem?
Just saw this thread, lots of great ideas. I can share with you our 10 months on the road in eastern US, rarely staying more than one night at the same location and always prefer staying in the woods somewhere like national forests.

Thanks for that info. So $75.00 each my cost LOL!!!
I wonder if one of the military surplus suppliers would be interested in buying a 100 then selling them to us for $$$. It would still be expensive but not as expensive. Just saying.
That was my thought as well. And as far as deep water fording. Adding hoses to the vents would only add stress causing them to fail quicker and with the only option to buy new modulators $300-400 each plus the electrical adapter cables equals $$$$$!
So if any else is looking for an alternate solution, this what I decided to do after looking at other Wabco ABS Modulators and seeing they used a rubber washer on the exit port I figured I would copy that idea.
Purchased some 1/16” thick rubber washers from Lowe’s 1 1/2” OD X 3/16”ID, #10-24x...
