    Artisan's M916

    PS, when you go to drive home the #12 Freon connectors do yourselves a HUGE FAVOR. Heat them up GOOD w/ a heat gun first. trust me on this. The #6 I had no problem w/ and I have not done a #8 yet but I think I will just heat it up to be safe. They are INSANELY hard to push together.

    Artisan's M916

    My next challenge is the wiring from the Evap to the Drier. In the kit there is a JUMPER that you are supposed to connector to the Evap unit and it goes down thru the floor and over to the drier. Well, the harness that attaches to the drier has maybe a 16" long pigtail that heads toward...

    This kit is goofy, there are TWO SETS of drier plugs! Look at your condenser, look at the condensors attached harness, you see those two, 2-pin plugs? OK now look at your other harness'es, there is a harness that plugs into this condenser harness and goes DOWN to the Drier and there is...

    Failsafe Warning Controller

    The Failsafe Warning Control Module (FWCM) is on the left, above the air vent, to the left of your left knee. The hazard light box is on the firewall in front of your shins. If you suspect you need a new FWCM go to www.idahomotorpool.com and grab one from Alex. They look a little bit different...

    NDT, I was concerned about the condenser look, that is why I went through changes to paint it green. I am OK w/ the look, I almost like it. I am not done up there too, I might spring for a bar type LED light or?. If it was the OE color it would look horrid IMO. I considered the Evap back...

    We moved the Evap unit to the right so now the bracket that holds the Switchbox is askew. I simply grabbed a 3" x 3" x 3.75" x .125" thick piece of square tube and massaged it smooth. Drill your mounting bracket holes THRU 2 walls. I choose to add a RAM Mount ball for future goodies as well...

    Fitting the EVAP and laying out all your holes is difficult if you have the 7155 tranny since the template moves. I just cut out the center of the template and thru the outside of the template away. After a lot of cussing, placing the evap unit on the floor and marking the drain holes and bolt...

    Thank you CB for clarifications. As you know, I started installing the RD-2-4530-0P A/C unit in my M916, I HAVE THE CAT 7155 Transmission so this may apply or may not to you. If you have an Allison the Evap unit will probably install per plan. The condenser on the roof was pretty straight...

    Possibly No More Trucks from DLA

    This video is another key point, hopefully someone can edit this video into something short less the advertisements. If there are more Johnny Do Good videos for MV trucks they should all be complied into one or a list all can copy. Here is a 5Ton during hurricane Arthur getting an in-labor...

    M916 A/C Electrical Challenges __ I found a post that NDT and R Racing were a part of a few years ago that has some good info about our electrical systems. To quote NDT; "OK, quick explation of the 915/916/920 electrical system: 4 batteries, 2 in parallel for 12V, the second 2 also in...

    got screwed on an m939.... crap

    But it is about CDL SW and the OP even told the world he does not need one, page 1. Not being able to educate guys who think they are above the law will surely lead to HUGE issues for all of us down the road SW. I was not confrontational, just the facts, seems counter productive boss.

    got screwed on an m939.... crap

    Whats the name of that radiator shop in, is it Kansas? You see stickers on these radiators from time to time w/ a sticker on them from this shop that rebuilds 5ton radiators. I am sure you can send a radiator to them and get a proper rebuild . Someone knows that name..

    M923 Spring brake overide

    The way I understand the spring brake override is this. If you are in a convoy and your trucks brakes go bad or engine stops and no compressor, you hit that button and it releases the brakes just long enough to push the truck off the road and out of the way of the convoy behind you, this is a...
