    Heated led headlights NOTE: I don't "think" I have covered this in this thread yet...? These are the HEATED Truck-Lite LED lights. In winter conditions LEDs do not produce enough heat to disapate snow and ice, so heated is optimal. I forgot to put these on my XMAS LIST. :-( Not only...

    Fixing Out of round Tires

    ...but the TM says CTIS HWY Mode is 90PSI right? Right. Certainly any tire can be dangerous at any PSI, personally I do what the TM says usually which is a valve 10' away or I connect w/ a clip on and set the pressure at the tank regulator.

    Why does the tire wall say 100PSI Cold then?

    Fixing Out of round Tires

    But the jest right now is to try to get the flat spots out right? It is worth a try to MAX AIR them IMO, even to 100 PSI and let them sit, and then run it w/ weight ON, a coule of hours and work them GOOD and see what happens. Right? I mean it's your call but I would try something easy before...

    I actually think you are looking at the 2012 -10 issue that supercedes the 2004 issue. Re-read that part at the beginning and look at he bottom of that page. Having said that, the table you list is clear, FOR EXTENDED HWY USE 70PSI, for Normal USE use CTIS pressures. From PDF pg #71; " For...

    Early HET Christmas

    One word: Samson 80% lighter than steel lines / 5:1 safety factor? THATS INSANE! Look at the 7/8" rope HERE, 7/8" is what is on my M916. It is "rated" at 84,000 POUNDS, plus safety factor! WOW. Instead of a crew, one man can handle it.

    THANK U Bob, I am listening. I wonder if the TM's address this and I did not read enough? Bob penned; "Most tire manufacturers will publish a chart for load (usually percent actual load compared to maximum) vs desired tire pressure." Great! Now I get to go on a 14:00R20 tire pressure...

    tire pressures

    The -10 User manual is clear...; The A2 CTIS variant is "Supposed" to air up to NINETY PSI in Hwy Mode. So every time you start the truck the truck reverts back to HWY MODE and your tires should be at 90 PSI. The tires are marked by the Manufacturer at 100PSI COLD I think. Anything under...

    That's all fine and dandy but let's try to fix the flat spot issue first, then after a few months if you want to let a lil air out that is your prerogative. (Not recommended) Pump those puppies up to MAX and let them sit. :-)

    I want to learn more about the A2 variant so I went and did some sleuthing. I have a lot to say, not a mean spirit within... Does the TM say 55PSI is OK for normal, on road use, at speed? I didn't think so. ;-) The -10 TM says; HWY MODE The highway tire pressure selector is the normal...

    Issues flipping the lunette (I've read previous posts)

    PB Blaster is sold at Home Depot. I am a firm believer in that stuff when used correctly. You can't squirt it and then try to remove stuff, you need to squirt it DAYS in advance, and a little touch up squirt every 1/4 day or so before you go after something. It is a "Penetrant" and you need to...
