    I read that thread but didn't see the type of antifreeze that he used.

    Coolant Filter Question

    I'm about to install a bypass coolant filter on my 923A2. I will be using a Wix 24071 filter with 4 units of DCA. Can I use this filter with standard " Green " antifreeze or should I swap over to the " Red " Fleetguard?

    M939A2 can't manually inflate front tire???

    I just got off the phone with him and it was the extension that was leaking. GTG.

    M939A2 can't manually inflate front tire???

    So you suspect that the air is coming from the wheel valve?

    M939A2 can't manually inflate front tire???

    Hiss air out where? Is the CTIS wheel valve still hooked up to the valve stem? If so, then you're inflating through the other side of the turret valve? The cannon plug being disconnected in the cab has nothing to do with your tire loosing air. I'd start with putting a jack under the axle and...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    I have one LED backup light on both of my trucks. It works fine for me.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Coffey1 and I finished the install of my Warn winch. We also broke down a 14:00 R20 to fix a leaking turret valve. It went unexpectedly well coming apart and back together. And my spare has the same problem so it will be a future tear down also. Finally got my cargo cover on also. Mine and...

    Bidding on a truck that won't start even with a jump.

    With GL it doesn't matter; you fill in the blanks to get your SF97. Make it a 2015 if you want. But I wouldn't.

    CTIS LEAK 931a2

    Wow. I think I'll buy me a few at MSC. Much cheaper.

    CTIS LEAK 931a2

    Anyone know the part number for that little o-ring under the wheel valves? I looked through the TM's but I'm still not sure if I have the correct one. I'm thinking it is 1/8 thick X 3/8 I.D.

    Secondary air pressure low, Keep burning up head gaskets

    Just replaced the same gasket on my A2 yesterday. It had a chunk blown out of the rear and wouldn't build pressure. is this a common issue on just A2's?

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Coffey1 and I replaced the blowed gasket on my 923A2 compressor that had brought my Dayton recovery to a halt. We finished the trip with the new truck in tow. It was a bit tricky with the unit still in place, but she works great now.

    Anyone near Atlanta to preview and figure out what is wrong with a truck?

    Trust me ; even those fresh overhauled ones have bugs and gremlins. I would at least want to see it run.

    Fixing Out of round Tires

    As far as CTIS pressures, I checked my newly acquired, 2012 rebuild, 923A2 tonight. The placard/nameplate in the cab says 55 psi for highway pressure. I checked it with a gauge and, sure enough, after going from Cross Country to Highway, it read 55.

    Recovery planned, Dayton, Ohio to Spartanburg,SC this coming Friday

    No kidding. You couldn't drive a 10 penny nail up my butt with a 3 pound sledgehammer yesterday!

    Recovery planned, Dayton, Ohio to Spartanburg,SC this coming Friday

    Thanks for the pictures Butch. It was a trip I'll never forget even though at times, I thought it was a nightmare. I hope some of you noticed that this tow over the mountains and down the valleys was made using the dreaded IBIS TEK tow bar some hate. I had used it in the past with no problems...

    Recovery planned, Dayton, Ohio to Spartanburg,SC this coming Friday

    I want to thank everyone involved and all those rooting for us! I have never been soooo happy to see my exit sign off of I-26 in my life. I would love to type more but, honestly, I'm too drained both physically from driving and mentally from having to tow that truck across those mountains for...

    Recovery planned, Dayton, Ohio to Spartanburg,SC this coming Friday

    As for a side note. Coffey1 has been driving my new truck up to this point. I've been in the chase car behind him. I have yet to drive the truck. But now that he got the CTIS figured out, I may have to fight him to ever drive it!
