I dug a little deeper on the valve after ordering the kit. Turns out two of the three gaskets like the picture above were split. All the others looked good. I will do some more pics and a different write up and will rebuild the entire valve for future use by others with the same problem.

I found the kit, although it looks like it covers several different trailer valves. I think it will be good to have on hand as it may also have some parts from the trucks air brake valves as well. RN10JM by HALDEX - RT4 Multifunction Trailer Valve Repair Kit (finditparts.com)

Raining like crazy since yesterday, but I was out in the garage so I figured why not start to tear apart the old spring brake valve to see if I can repair it or at least see where it failed. When it was on the trailer, I determined that the leak was somewhere on the lower left side as I was...

So, the rain let up for a bit and I took the valve up to the trailer. Followed the TM for changing out the fittings on the old valve. Then disaster struck. The tee fitting on the back was in tight and as I pushed the wrench slipped and crushed one of the small Tee fittings. Spent some time...

The NOS valve showed up today and I will try and get it installed tomorrow if the weather cooperates a bit (supposed to rain for the next couple of days). I did take the old one off tonight to remove all of the brass adapters.

If it is in stock condition, the trailer is 60 1/2 inches wide from outside of wheel to outside of wheel. So if your truck bed is at least 60 1/2 inches wide, yes it will fit. If you were to stick it upside down, the top of the trailer is only 49 inches wide.

I have used him for stencils for my LMTV. He was awesome and did some extra ones that were not in his LMTV kit. Pricing was good and stencils arrived quickly

Just a little update......Doing more research and part shopping, I did locate a NOS valve (surprised to find it so quickly). With Xmas right around the corner, I have been too busy to take the valve off and figured at this point I will replace it with a NOS part and then see about rebuilding it...

I love it there. They don't need an appointment (Just have to arrive between 0800-1400 Monday through Friday) and the drive is gorgeous. Folks are nice and helpful.

Grounding rods, 5 ton shelter tie down kit, 5 ton rear axle, a block/tackle, a folding aluminum table and since I knew I needed to go to Doyle anyway, another Hardigg case

Continuing to get my trailer up and running. Hooked it up to the truck today and fed air into the system to see if the brakes worked after replacing missing air hoses. Sucess, but there seems to be air escaping from the brake spring valve behind the tank. Is there a vent on this and should it...

So, I finally brought my trailer home to get all the PM's done and fix what's broken or missing. When I bought it in July it was missing the sway bar bushings (fixed that today) and missing the emergency side air hose (replaced them both today as well). The one big pain in my OCD mind was that...

So the A0 didn't have one then. I have an A0 and it doesn't and I hate the ugliness down there (as well as the heater hose that just shoots down to the floor. Wonder if anyone has a spare lying around.

Really liking that kick plate....custom fab or is that from something else

Thats just friggin awesome!!!

Who makes this?

Hope the trip home went okay

Feeling in the Xmas spirit, I will toss in my 1078

When I purchased my truck in July, in the bed were four huge crates that had MRAP painted on the sides. I was thinking that the PO had purchased 4 of the Caimen MRAP tires and I would be able to pop them right on (of course after buying the special acorn nut from Hutchinson and the 36 other...

Getting ready for the parade of lights in town tomorrow...and Happy LMTV holidays to you as well!!
