    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    The PPV only ensures that the brakes have full pressure. It should ALLOW air to the accessory side including the air governor. If it is stuck you will NOT have horns, wipers and the air pressure will go to about 150 where the safety valve will take over and blow off at 150 psi. Hope this helps.

    Red Ball rally in Gilbert PA, Sep 2014 - who's going?

    For the ignorant like me, could you post some specifics to better plan? I haven't even heard of this one.

    CUCV - Car hauler?

    I towed an AMC eagle on a 2000 pound empty trailer. No problems at all. Load balance is everything. Get the tongue weight right. Sure the power is a little down but I had no issues at all doing 60 for more than 25 miles. Best trailer would be a light weight car hauler. The kind with full length...

    71 m35a2 no start, no fuel

    I put in a brand new NOS IP, but have kept my old one for just such a repair if ever needed. Great photos.

    71 m35a2 no start, no fuel

    I guess then there should be a rule to thoroughly research your question without copping out that I tried, I can't or whatever. I have done it once. As this is your first time I simply stated the items that caused me grief. Can you time it Tom's way? Sure. As it was my first time I preferred the...

    71 m35a2 no start, no fuel

    You will need to remove: the brush guard, radiator, front valve cover (for timing). When it comes time to install the pump and time it, the engine will want to move to either side of where it needs to hold because it's not exactly on a lobe. Hard to understand until you get to that step, but you...

    71 m35a2 no start, no fuel

    Its not bad at all. I know everyone says read the TMs, but read the TMs. I did figure out a neat way to hold the timing with an extension bar and socket. Worked like a charm. It was my first and with quality coaching from a member here we got it done. Only need a couple of cheap gaskets and...

    Need Information for Flat Towing M931A2

    Sorry, you are wrong. It is ONLY releasing the spring brakes, which are held off by air. The service brakes are still operational.

    Need Information for Flat Towing M931A2

    You can make the air hoses. There are no springs in the front brakes. Go to NAPA and buy four glad hands and a couple if short air hoses. DO NOT TOW A 931 With a deuce without air. You are getting a lot if conflicting information. PM me for my number and I can help you.

    Need Information for Flat Towing M931A2

    You do not need to pull axles, driveshafts or uncage the brakes. If the deuce provides both service and emergency air as it should you will have full brake operation. Transfer and tranny in neutral, air hooked, chains and away you go. It will be a slow roll. Test the brakes, the air brakes are...

    Blew up a battery....

    I've had two batteries in all of my trucks with zero issues even in winter. 4 is just standard military overkill.

    ABS troubleshooting

    Gimp check the ground for the ABS system. It is part of the PCB mounting. It grounds through the stud and spacer. I have seen a lot of paint on those four surfaces that can cause a dirty or floating ground.

    Air impact quick connect on M923A2 air tank

    Why introduce a new potential leak point? Its really easy to use a $5 gladhand on the rear port. No need to get under to an air tank or any other junk, literally takes 5 seconds to connect.

    Official 2014 SS Georgia Rally Info SSGR14 thread

    Hello, I am wheelspinner, and I would like to see breakfast exactly as it was last year, with the exception of having grits everyday. Popop's grits are amazing and I can't wait for them. Lunch, was OK, its hard to plan who will be around and who will not. Box lunches seem to work just fine...
