I'm thinking air dryer is shot... Because I just pulled a tiny speck of something out of the blowout valve that was preventing it from closing... Almost looked like fiber.. But rust colored...

Second blowout valve just failed.... I'm beyond pissed. What the **** is going on? Stuck open..

Percussion cap? Pic of primer?

Without training, they're paperweights. No support infrastructure.... They'll go a couple hundred miles. Against modern anti-armor air platforms, they don't stand a chance. A trained pilot in an F86 Sabre will crush an untrained pilot in an F22 Look at the Vietnam War... Russian...

They had a couple buffalos and some up armored 5 tons at the Bragg location... Metric #@$& ton of up armored HMMWVs. All were slotted by DLA to go to the range, or sold with a strict requirement that they be destroyed before they're removed. I'd love to get an up armored HMMWV... The people...

That's the one. I understand factory was 150...it had a 175 in it... Only one available was a 250...and I'll be replacing it as soon as I can. The compressor has a governor... On at 100 and off at 120 iirc. And my air has been rock solid at a hair above 120. Made it just outside...

Just amazing how a $30, 2.5oz part can bring a 30klb truck to a halt. I noticed the air loss before the light and Buzzer. I'm glad I was paying attention to my panel... I when it got to 90 I immediately pushed the emergency brake override... Glad I did... Buzzer and light didn't come on...

Pressure relief valve failed.... Replaced and back on the road.

Pressure relief valve... Is what it looks like... Constantly popping off... Every 3 seconds or so... Got a ride from a friendly local... Trying to source a replacement.

Left WV this morning... Made it to PA... Both primary and secondary air systems are draining... Can hear escaping air around the air dryer in front of the rear axle... Any way to bypass?

Bumper and aux LEDs installed for trip..

Picked it up from Bragg... Drove it to WV... Got all new fluids... Installed some additional LED lighting in prep for finishing up trip to WA...

Yup. I had a long conversation with iron planet. Apparently. If a year is listed it goes by that year. If no year is listed, they let me do the research and let me tell them what it is. L o l

Yes. Plan was to layover with family for a couple days. Haven't seen them in awhile. Also scheduling and planning picking up an m1031 when I pass through MT.

THANK YOU! to reset2 for helping me cut holes in my bumper so I could mount some lights for the trip.... I'll post more pics when I get the lights finished.. Dunno if he wants his face out there... So I opted to keep it hidden.. PERSEC and all that jazz... :D

Left Fayetteville around 1400 after fueling up. Filled up in Richmond, a little over 30 gallons. Made it to West Virginia (harpers ferrry/Hagerstown, MD area) at about 2215 Small air leak at fan clutch... Nothing horrible... Otherwise... Smooth sailing... Rough math equals 6mpg...throttle...

Release form is printed online after you pay. I set this up last week. ...I dunno how they wouldn't know.... Also, I was instructed that 1230 is the latest you can pick up....
