Older CTIS modules communicate with J1587. Newer one's support J1939. The DANA software supports both you just need any RP1210A protocol adapter. https://global.dana.com/commercial-vehicles/products/tire-pressure-management#searchRootId=e2131c3b-468f-443d-87ae-0bca7e2ef08e/facets= This should...

It's almost certainly PTFE sealant - it does harden with age. Heat will help but also proper fitting tools and especially line wrenches if you can get them in there on the fitting - they don't round off brass fittings like that as easily.

Useful idea! Would you mind sharing the file to print that guy? I have files I'm sure you would like to return the favor :cool:

That's the date of FLIS management - where they probably changed pricing information only. You have to look above that to the NIIN issue date which is March 17, 2000 - that was when the NSN was created. It could be that trucks prior to that date had a different cap but they all supersede to this...

Oh yeah I'm just using their site bandwidth, part numbers, and pictures to confirm my research.

I contacted the manufacturer of the ebay listing and they are putting it back up shortly so I can buy one. Seem like nice people.

That is incorrect. The 10229 has a pressure rating of 13 psi. The FMTV trucks call for a 16 psi cap. I will post a picture of the Fed-Log characteristics....

In my case it's not so clear cut. My truck is 14 years old and has under 10k miles on it. Much less than 30 and very low mileage. Again the benefits to the end user depend on the intended use. Personally I like the idea of a low pressure system.

Not interested in lowering the coolant temp. The benefit is longevity, corrosion resistance, and lack of system pressure due to high boiling point.

There's also such things as waterless, lifetime antifreeze: https://www.evanscoolant.com/ It can't cause corrosion because it contains no water...... Jay Leno uses the stuff. I'm considering it for my LMTV actually. The boiling point is so high you can pull the radiator cap at full operating...

Shouldn't be necessary. My 2008 MVT Goodyear tires rounded back out and stopped vibrating after daily driving my truck for about 6 months. Smooth as glass now. I would say that anyone with "balancing" issues is most likely fighting out-of-round tires and hasn't driven their truck enough to...

I googled the NSN of the AA02516 and found the listing with the specifications including the dimensions and the pressure rating. I'm guessing that the mil spec unit probably has different materials used for the seals, etc. Just like they use silicone for much of the hoses on these trucks while...

The parts reference spreadsheet only lists the Stant AA02516 - this being a military part number without any cross-reference. Doing some digging around it appears that a Stant 10230 is a proper fit and is stocked at nearly every auto parts store in the USA. Autozone part number 7016 (it's a...

Thanks! It took many months but I got there in the end. I have my suspicions that this fault may have been responsible for the truck never being maintained and eventually being discarded with under 2k miles on it. Everything on the truck seemed to be original from 2008. Best guess is the truck...

Yes the entire truck including the headlights are LED. Other than the headlights which I upgraded to the heated TruckLite LED's, the truck was built with 100% LED's from the factory with the exception of the lights on the inside of the van. Those were 24v incandescent aviation bulbs - I swapped...

I checked the amperage output from the alternator this afternoon. Fully charged batteries. With everything on the draw was about 12 amps on the 14v side and somewhere between 6 and 12 amps on the 28v side. That's with all the 1079 24v lighting turned on, service drive and panel bright engaged on...

Ah yes it is voltage based on the LBCD cut off..... the LBCD itself is *rated* to handle 200a but as you pointed out the charge current doesn't pass through it so that's probably not much of a limitation in practice. The grid heater doesn't seem to bother the 260a alt much. The voltage drop is...

I'm considering a pair of these. They come with shunts and are 12/24v and they are relatively inexpensive. One for each side of the 260A alternator. My main need beyond monitoring the draw on the stupidly expensive alternator is to ascertain how much overhead I have to work with on the 24v side...

Correct. To expand on that - 1st gear has to be manually selected and is only available in "MODE" where the center diff is locked in, etc. These trucks are 6 speeds in normal on-road operation starting in 2nd gear.
