I said slight. A lawn chair would go nicely over the peak. 8)

Cool Mike, looking good. I wonder why they didn't put a slight peak in the roof to help rain run off.

Glad you got it working

Ok, if when everything is pumped up, and the trailer is charged, do the brakes on the trailer set immediatly when the trailer valve is pulled out? If they do, you have a bad trailer valve. If they don't you have a bad tractor protection valve. What truck is this on? dirt is the leading cause...

Ok, so you are saying that if you drain the tanks to 0, and then pull the emergancy gladhand, it still has full pressure on it and once that drains then the trailer brake pops out in the cab?

I'll be keeping my eyes out for a surplused 7.5k tanker.

Opps, Thanks Z! I just read the other thread!

Ask Dave, I came up with that first! Looking good Dave! Just RTV the PTO if it keeps leaking, not many people will be poking their heads up under her 'skirt'. I would want it done right too but if you can't get it to stop leaking...

An A2 truck will have come from the factory with ABS.

Ok! I'm already going to try to get as many guys over to move as many of the trucks at once over to the new place in a convoy, do some 'Shock and Awe' on the new neighbors!

I'm sorry guys, life gets in the way sometimes... I'm sure that everything will be in place for us all to come next year, and maybe I can drag some other SC members to go along as well.

I've got a 'track gang' lined up. We should get it all done in a day. I'm going to build panel track so all we have to do is lift it off the trailer with a wrecker, set it down, and bolt it together. Will be like a huge train set.

I have been tasked with building a railroad at the 2013 GA rally. If I complete this mission, and run a military locomotive 100ft in each direction on it, I will be givin a RR forum and even made the Mod of it. At least according to the 'Gentleman's Agreement'. I suppose it would only be valid...

Glad you (maybe) found it. I wouldn't have thought of that being loose. It pays sometimes to just crawl around kicking stuff! lol. Hope that's it an it will be another 'happy Steel Soldiers ending'

Because it sounds like you will be dealing with brakish water, within 24 hours of taking her swimming, you will need to take all the hubs off and inspect/relube/clean, or serious damage can result. At a minimum, I would put silicone single piece axle boots on the front axle as soon as you get...

Er, I wouldn't take that to the bank. Looks like Me, Angie, and JP will not be in attendance this year, due to me having to move. Figures, the year I make the T-shirt, I can't even go!:cry::cry:

PB, I just got word through the trucker grape vine that the 'super secret shipment' you had coming to Lilburn from Canada had an accident... I'm sorry Z, looks like payment for the WC might be a little late...

When I was doing railroad trackwork, just as M16 said, it will burn the **** out of your skin, even just standing over it. The issue is now, that railroad ties last 8-15 years before just rotting away. We were removing 70-80 year old ties that were treated with the 'good stuff' that we could...

Are you running the transfer case in low? I have taken my M109A3 with stock 9.00X20 NDT's to mud bogs and powered through way easier than some of the high horsepower lower body weight trucks. I never had a problem with wheel speed in 2nd, and after the mud had been worked a little bit I went...

I know in my M915, even though everything is tight and checked out, rides terrible on rough roads without a trailer, and makes all kinds of nasty sounding noises. I don't recall a noise quite like yours. I might check and see if the shocks are worn out, and the axle is hitting the stops.
