Awesome. Just what I needed. Thanks!

I'm installing the new single-unit dash manifold for the Parking Brake & Trailer air. I've done a lot of research and I'm currently waiting for a few parts to complete the installation. I've read through the thread written mainly by Overdrive. Great info there. I've read through it many times...

Thank you for all of this excellent information regarding the switch to the single unit haldex dash park/trailer manifold. My original manifold is leaking badly so I'm replacing it and I have been researching this extensively. Your info has been invaluable. That said, I want to ensure I'm...

Ronmar, These are very helpful points and I will look for these issues as I dive into the brakes. Ohhhhh..., Great info. That's exactly what I was hoping to do. Integrate a similar sub torsion mount system. So, yes, post numbers would be greatly appreciated! I will definitely check out...

Hi All, I'm a first-time poster. I bought a GovPlanet Hawaii m1083A1 (my first FMTV!) and I just received my EUC. So I'll do a hop to Honolulu and pick up the truck and prepare for RoRo shipping to Oakland. Btw, thanks to Fuzzy. He's already provided me with very helpful info on my Hawaii...
