    Resolution size of PNG vs JPG

    I have experienced that same "disadvantage" - of blurry, way downsized JPG-converted PNG files - when posting any of my drawings. And I'm talking of files which usually are not larger than the allowed limit of 100 KB. Funny thing is that even when posting a 25 KB PNG image, the system would...

    Hubs - how hot is too hot?

    I am pretty sure that the higher initial temperature was caused by the new outer seals, "wearing ïn". Question now is, how long would such a seal last doing its job... after the rubber lip has seen that much friction and heat? Just out of curiosity I would check and measure the lips' remaining...

    Transmission Problem 5th Gear Retaining Ring

    It is possible that the retaining ring may have been re-used. It should really be replaced, every time. Very tricky, to remove- and not distort it. TMs are written by humans, only... also corrected, eventually. (Read here...)

    Transmission Problem 5th Gear Retaining Ring

    He said his is tight, not loose - although sliding in place by hand force, only. I can confirm that most are that way, even coming out of barely used transmissions. Not a problem. TM 9-2520-246-34 calls for 0.000 - 0.001T, fit of sleeve to shaft. That is for NEW parts. The real stress on that...

    Simp's Cat 7155 Swap into a M923A1

    I can only imagine that you are doing all this because swapping engines (to a healthy; turned-up 6CTA) would destroy your Allison in no time?

    No brakes

    Most probably the pedal is still there, just no more braking action... so I've changed the thread title a bit. ("no pedal" is just too generic...) Start reading here... Also about the bleeding process, like in this thread... Many similar threads have already been posted here, about this same...

    Are Runflats worth trying to save???

    I'm trying to understand how these inserts can make a tire run hotter than the same tire without runflat. Knowingly, heat (above ambient temp) comes from friction. But besides the inner friction of the carcass due to tire flexion, there should be nothing else causing any friction (= heat)...
