    Well, I'm sitting her looking at the fire reflecting off the front of the 818. We will figure something out tomorrow.

    M915 low power. Looking for likely problems.

    Mine was running very sick as well, had the injection pump rebuilt and they set it 15% over, now I have to watch it or the speedo will creep towards 70! I would do the simple stuff first- check your air cleaners, change your fuel filters. My truck would run fine till the fuel got low, then...

    2013 NC Steel Soldiers MV RALLY April 11,12,13

    I can't find the parts thread, search, or the searcher, suck. Mods, feel free to move and I thank you for it. We need a hydraulic head for Craig's deuce, and I broke the one in the M109 trying to get it out to put in his truck. Long story short we are coming up now, but not in the trucks we...

    trailer lights from 24v to 12v

    Yes, you need a set of resisters to drop the voltage. a problem with putting just the resistors in the ground side, is that unless all the lights on the trailer have a dedicated ground wire, and are not grounded to the frame, you will have problems. The tongue will gound out to the truck and...

    Replacing brake shoes

    Yeah he left just before you got there John... JK, John helped with a few tools, his calibrated torque arms "UHHHH that's tight enough" and of course helpful hints and critisism.

    Replacing brake shoes

    Mike is supposed to add more pictures of what came out of the wheel when he took it apart. The backing plate was bent pretty bad on the old axle too.

    Replacing brake shoes

    Well, the easiest way to fix it was to swap the whole axle. So I went over to Mike's house yesterday morning, and brought it back to the compound. We used the axle that came off the MKT I scrapped. It was actually pretty easy to do! We put the four corner jacks down, as far as they would go...

    new m37 saved

    John hasn't updated this thread, so I will! He has gotten the fuel tank off, and after pulling off the fiberglass patch, we found that the low spot had rusted through. Other than that, the tank is pretty solid. It is at my radiator guy getting dipped and repaired, should get the call any day...

    Airbrake hand controller 'Trolley valve' install assistance needed.

    If no one else pipes up, I'll go look on my 818 (or I guess I should say Stampy's 818. If I remember correctly, one line goes to the air system for full pressure, and the other line goes down and T-s in to the piping going back to the trailer air lines, after a check valve to keep it from...

    LMTV at DRMO, spec's? Engine?

    Ok, the *new* trucks he was talking about, were the ones that have been delivered in the last year, year and a half to replace the M900 series left in the SC ANG inventory. I can only assume the *old* LMTVs and MTVs he was refering to were older versions already on hand. I will ask him model...
