The adapter is bolted to the inner wheel hub with the same size bolts. 3/8” 16. So yes it will fit the axle. The aluminium hub cap is bolted to the hub with 4 10/32 stainless Allen screws. Yes you can pull the cap and remove the axle for whatever reason. Looks like the hubs will be done...

Started production on hubs yesterday and today. End caps are coming along good also. A few pictures for those of you following along.

Did another 100 plus miles this weekend to go to a gun show. Nice to talk to people with interest in these trucks. Draws quite a lot of people wherever it goes. Even McDonald’s had people come up to talk about the truck. Lots of thumbs ups also! For people following the direct...

Thank you! I didn’t notice the resistor in the schematic.

Hi I have a m1078 2001 a1. I noticed the other day all the relays in the fuse box are 12 volt. Looked thru the tm’s a little but didn’t find an easy answer. Which relays are 24 volt ? Which are 12 volt? Fuse box far right of dash. Thanks.

I assume you mean from inside the cab, sure. Will get to it when the roads clean up a bit.

I understand and don’t wish to break the rules. Will limit my info to technical only…. I will Post in the for sale section when they are available…. Sorry for bending the rules.

A little more information for those following along. I copied this from the internet somewhere. Torque/horsepower graphics for cat Fmtv.

Had a chance to pull some weight today. Hooked a 24’ tilt deck equipment trailer on the back of the 1078. pulled it empty about 35 miles picked up my tractor at the dealership and returned home. I would guess the trailer to be 2500 lbs maybe a bit more and the 5010 Kioti cab tractor with...

Yes! Exactly correct…. We used to set up 12 bolt Chevrolet rear ends with 6:13/1 for circle track racing very small pinions! and driveline speeds of 6500 to 7000 rpm! Sometimes we would even shorten the driveshaft at home. Cut the weld at the yoke shorten the tube, weld it back together...

I’m sure A video will be posted at a later time.. Right now I’m concentrating on getting all the quotes for production, very different than one set at a time. Looking good so far, I’m holding my price point. Thank you for your input .

The nut is locked with a single split collar, the collar is machined to fit over the splines on the axle tube. The collar has two holes that line up with the existing pins on the spindle nut Slide the collar up tight to the nut tighten the Allen bolt. You remove the inner gear but leave the...

Todays update tried to haul stone unfortunately the pit was closed. The truck pulled the empty dump trailer like it wasn’t there.. I did find out that my pigtail adapter I purchased for the trailer locks the brakes solid when plugged in! Glad I looked back was dragging the trailer down the...

The other members can answer this best, but if the outside reduction is the same then the hubs and adapters will fit. My best guess is Yes!

The hub or axle adapter as you call it is made of 4140 steel hardened to Rockwell 55 to 60. Then the inner splines are wire edm cut to a tighter tolerance than stock apx 20/30 percent tighter…. Should be much stronger than what looks like a powder metal oe gear thats hardened to 67 Rockwell...

Here is an invitation for anyone that owns one of these trucks to come test drive mine and report the good or bad. Im in north east Indiana, you can pm me to make arrangements. My Allison guru dropped the ball, so will probably be next week for speedometer adjustment etc. I think...

Acceleration times were not in “mode” so yes 2nd. Not from a stop just to make things a little more consistant. The acceleration from a stop 2nd gear is very good! I’m letting the transmission shift on its own in all tests. My truck is a stock A1 274 hp…. The tranny will not shift to 7th...

If I understand correctly the Speedo in an AO uses dip switches to change the calibration, the A1 is set thru the transmission ecu. will know more this week. I have an appointment with an Allison guru this week.. To this point I’ve been using gps speedometer works very good!

1st gear is still there and now you can use it. I know it’s hard to believe but low end power is great. Remember you also have mode for lower first as I understand.

Currently 65mph. It will go much faster…
