Thanks both for your input. Here is some additional reading if anyone like to geek out on this stuff. https://vpracingfuels.com/tech-talk-insider-articles/gl4-vs-gl5-gear-oil/

Just reviving this old thread rather than starting a new. It has been three years since I changed my differential and hub fluid, so it is time. I used Valvoline HD Synthetic 75W-90 which is on the Meritor Approved list (TP-9539) which also list the API rating as GL-5. I read in the TM that a...

One solution is two EGT ports/probes because there is a "wall" cast in the exhaust manifold collector. The disadvantage is double the cost on probes and dual channel gauge. The advantage is you get EGT from front three cylinder and rear three cylinders. Not as good as measuring every cylinder...

I have measured the 12v tap on the my PDP and it deviates +/- 2v. I'll be powering some electronics that care about that voltage deviation so to get a nice clean and constant 12.5v I am planning on installing a DC to DC converter (conditioner) and then power a fuse block like Blue Sea or Blue...

I saw that also, 21 and 22. Maybe an inner and outer? I am still learning. The Meritor Service Manual does not show this clearly.

Thanks. I have all the TMs but could not get the NSN to cross refereence to the Meritor numbers.

Thanks, I had that one in my cart but I just couldn't find a way to verify it.

I did some searches on here before posting this question but could not find the Meritor part number for the input shaft (pinion) seal on both the front and rear axle, maybe they are the same? Does any one have those number or can point me tin the right direction to get them?

Thank you for the links!

Thank you. I did not find the 24v SPDT on Amazon. Perhaps I overlooked it.

Thanks for the spelling correction, you are correct, PICKER components. They are based in Minnesota and produced in Asia specifically, contacts in Japan and final assembly in China. Not everything made in Asia is Harbor Freight quality. It depends on the specification and QC by the OEM. I...

Thanks for the tip! I am okay with plastic retainers on things like molding but for the hand grips above the door, I will rivnut them.

Does anyone have an opinion on the PIKER vs BOSCH branded relays. They are roughly the same price, both companies are ISO 9000 and there products are all CE conforming.

Thank you, that is very helpful! I have not used finditparts for a long time so I forgot about them. How are you going to address the different amp ratings with only two spare fuses?
