    Load rating for 1078 front and rear axles?

    I am sure the -10 will have loaded front/rear axle weight, if you do not go over that, you should be ok.

    Axle Vents

    The CTIS uses SPECIAL hub seals that ARE designed to hold the pressure, while non CTIS seals are designer to hold oil in/dirt out but are NOT pressure seals. This is why CTIS seals are so much more EXPENSEVE the non CTIS seals. I am not sure how the CTIS is internally plumbed, The leaking seals...

    Axle Vents

    Very true on the thread movement, the reason is a good vent does not stay good very long, I have pulled vents from trucks that has not been run in a week, every time there is a pressure release, and every time the reason the vent got pulled was because on a seal seep, either at the hub OR the...

    Axle Vents

    ALL the axles have axle vents, on the front, air will be drawn in through the axle seal, oil out, the grease will be no where near it, also while we are on "axle" vents, the transfer case has the SAME vent as well as the manual transmission, these ALSO have the SAME issues as the axle vents...

    Axle Vents

    WRONG about the MOD being POINTLESS, the axle vent ONLY breathes one way "out", as pressure builds and the vent is SUPPOSED to dump the extra pressure, it dumps the pressure, then the axle cools down, the pressure drops, to where there COULD be a bit of vacuum, this will tend to draw dust, ect...

    few Qs recovered M813? or M54? Pics

    That fitting BETWEEN the two trans. poppet valves IS the exhaust for the sprag which the poppet valves control, NOTHING goes into that fitting. Now I have seen a "U" shaped piece of tubeing facing down installed in the fitting, this is just to keep crap/water from dropping into the fitting If...

    Axle Vents

    Put a cheap in line gas filter at the end of the vent hose with the open end of the filter turned down, this will keep dust and water from being drawn in when the axle breaths.

    1985 M923A1 Dual Fuel Line Mod and new Fuel Button Install

    My m819 had a 27 , I replaced it with a 22, no double lines, my 36,000 lb 819 pulls long hills a lot better, where I had to go to 4th before, I can most times stay in fifth, blows a LOT of black smoke under load but that's fine, it really stays in the sweet spot in the power curve. at times I...

    it isn't really a trailer....

    We shipped a good 20 out of FL. a few years ago, some were a complete mk48/what ever RPU, some just the FPU, there are 5 trailers(RPU) that can be interchanged to hook to the FPU, SO I am guessing what we are seeing now are the extra RPUs. Also the complete MK48/RPU was designed to pull a second...

    1200r20 rim mounting

    Does anybody know, Will the 1200r20s that are showing up fit a standard budd rim OR is the bead DIFFERENT where it takes a special rim, I am not sure what uses these tires, though I do know that they are not used on normal trucks. The m819 uses 1200s oem, it would be nice to put these high load...
