Hi everyone, upon searching for some member experiences regarding malfunction of stop brake light switch on M939 series, I stumbled upon a thread having to do with the spring brake operation. Without going any deeper on the reasons for that thread being closed, I just wanted to add/share a...

Hello, Yes, I got my answer too. And some opinions. If you read my very first post in this thread, I just wanted to receive input on my implied reason for the warning. I am still baffled at how these things go on without consequence for the designers. A kit to prevent engaging reverse gear...

Hi, Thanks for the info. I replied a few threads ago about what I found regarding wire 568 and 566. The 566 circuit is to operate a relay in the safety box to prevent starter engagement while the engine is turning. Circuit 568 just comes from ignition switch to excite the alternator. I...

The picture...

Here is a source for the double V pulley for the Delco 21si in case you want to keep the stock one or are not interested in the hassle of drilling to 7/8 of an inch :-P 2-Groove V-Belt Alternator Pulley. Dimensions: 13mm Belts x 85mm OD x 22.23mm (7/8 in.) Bore :deadhorse:

This may work better for the drawings I tried to upload..go to the website.:???: Detail Spec Sheet For AMA-5104UT They have a 90 amp and a 200 amp direct replacement for the AMA5104UT. You might imagine the cost...just for comparison.

Ok, I finally got to the adjustment screw..no luck. 24.3V either way...lock to lock. Dukeman, when you say a 2" pipe spacer, surely you mean 2" long. But, what did you use? 1/2" ID or 3/8" ID? Would you be more specific? Thanks. I have included some pictures I found at the APS website which...

Hello Chuck, Thanks for your post. Do not despair...your input on the 21si is of great value. It is just that I like to see all the possibe alternatives and of course I would feel inclined to change the alternator alltogether. Although I understand there is some modifications to be made. The...

Hi Diverman, Where did you get the new 24V regulator for the stock alternator on your truck? Thanks!

From what I have researched, #566 prevents the starter from being engage while the engine is running. It seems this wire delivers whatever signal (voltage, freq.) to the protective control box (mysterious black box by the drivers side firewall) for this. 9 CIRCUIT 566 - Controls a relay in...

Hi everyone. I am amazed about coincidences or this equipment is junk. I have been working for two days now on a M931A1 with the yellow range in the voltmeter syndrome. I did get info from the TM...just in case. I have been recharging the batteries one at a time since all I got at the time is...

Ok builderboy, you seem to be very smart or was able to read further than me. If you could just point to the correct TM I would greatly appreciate it. I can understand the torque/strain limitation. What is hard to believe is how the government or the designers got away with this. A super...

Now, that is one good looking trailer Harley...[thumbzup]

Before posting my request for information to this honorable community, I must say I did search on the TM before daring to ask for information. I found no information on this. Maybe it is there but I did not find it.:roll: Ok, that aside, I would like to know the reasoning for the warning on...

Fixed my truck for the time being... used good ol' JB Weld to fix some lead weigths to the drums. I did a 200 miles plus round trip today with flying colors...speeds up to 70 MPH. None of them flung out. I let them harden real good overnight. Before that, cleaned the area real well with...
