The "fuse link" at the alternator studs was specified to be removed from the platform over 20 years ago. See page 3 of PS Magazine 569 from April of 2000: http://psmag.radionerds.com/images/a/a4/PS_Magazine_Issue_569_April_2000.pdf You *did* replace the fuse link with a washer to prevent...

PVT Snuffy strikes again! I have found plenty of that on my truck - a 2008 with 1500 miles on it. My grid heater was wired to the 12v side of the LBCD. Just recently found that my air intake elbow at the turbo was on backwards. Had my truck a year and still finding PVT Snuffy's calling cards.

I'm down to check it out. Sounds like interesting stuff. let me know how to get a couple rolls.

Did they post a video of it running? Issues idling could be a lot of things, but with a diesel it usually comes down to fueling and that's a 3126B truck which means possible HEUI issues.

Super 33 has it's place, but Tesa is just better in virtually every respect - it doesn't turn to goo around heat or fluids, has better abrasion resistance, looks more professional, etc. If your still using 33 for most jobs it's because you haven't tried the Tesa offerings. Just my experience -...

The current standard in automotive harness tape is Tesa 51036 and related sizes. https://www.amazon.com/Rolls-Tesas-Advanced-Harness-Mercedes/dp/B074YCG21Z It's an excellent wrap to protect against abrasion, etc. I second the use of heat shrink with sealant before wrapping with abrasion...

They happily sell individual latches for $10 from their online store. I wouldn't be surprised if they will sell the spring steel safety catch by itself - maybe in a bag of 10 or 50 or whatever. The newest version of the safety catch is obviously redesigned for increased life compared to my 2008...

This is the latch used on the PDP panel cover. I sent them an email asking if the spring steel safety catch is available on its own (both of mine are broken) but even if it isn't the whole latch is only $10. https://southco.com/en_us_int/91-562-07

No. You can likely purchase tubing of the appropriate size or if absolutely necessary these can be turned out on any lathe in short order. Vulcanized rubber requires equipment generally far beyond that found in the average shop and that's what this group buy is here to address. If you need...

I called my supplier and the mounts are scheduled to ship out on November 14th. They said all production has been delayed due to supply chain backups and raw material shortages. So the original estimate of 4-6 weeks turned into 16 weeks. Such is the way of the world these days. And yes there...

Additional sets were ordered and I presume some will also remain unclaimed one shipping commences. I haven't heard back from my email requesting an updated ETA as of yet. I have paid 50% of the production costs and the other 50% is due upon completion but that has yet to occur, As with most...

The factory style condenser mounts under the skid plate and shouldn't preclude the use of the cold weather radiator/intercooler cover

There is an arctic grill cover as well..... never seen one. NSN: 2540-01-470-2865

Nice. I'll have to attempt installation. Mine has never been installed but it could be handy if I head up to the mountain. The warning about not using it causing damage to equipment is interesting. :oops:

I replaced mine with the new style but I did pull that box off and found the loose ring so I heated it with a small torch and after letting it cool that seems to have fixed the loose solder joint under the potting material. I never tested it since I already replaced it - I was just messing...

There's an Army PS magazine blurb about those early relays having bad connections and mine had a solder joint problem inside the potted control box. https://www.psmagazine.army.mil/News/Article/2992599/m1078a1-fmtv-culprit-for-cab-power-loss/ There's a new enclosed unit that replaces the...

I have one of these. Anyone got pics of it installed?!

You are supposed to pump it till water/fuel runs out of the drain on the bowl. That's how it's supposed to work. It's somewhere in the maintenance schedule or PMCS..... can't remember where I saw that. But yeah it will dump water/fuel from the bowl once the primer gets hard so I bet it's not...

Haven't heard anything. I'll contact them this coming week and see if there's an updated ETA.

There's no need to replace the controller. You can program all the settings including overspeed set points with the free Dana diagnostic tool.
