Take it to a truckpro or a fleetpride. Should have number. The new one will have a rod longer than yours, cut it to length of your old one with a hacksaw. My friend has a lot of new various brake chambers he just won from GL, we may have one. Call me.
Sometimes the insurance company or tag office adds x's or 0's to the end of a vin # to make it 17 digits, to get along with computer systems when registered/insured. Be sure that isn't the case.
I don't yet have enough experience with the gear reduction starters, if they actually use less current or not, and so on. I did replace one of my starters with a gear reduction starter. Diameter is definitely smaller, and this makes a huge difference when reinstalling, because your...
What he said. Each headlight is grounded with a short jumper near the back of the headlight, on the hood. Run a secondary wire for ground to each headlight, then ground to frame, continue on to starter and ground there where main ground bolts to starter. I even added additional ground wire...
Thank you so much for posting this. I have been searching for a well made but cheaper slave port connector. $39 is awesome price, info on here is appreciated.
I have seen this bumper, and pics don't show the quality of the welds, or the design of it. Works really well with m105 and M1082. The magnetic lights are the way to go, just make sure you take duct tape and zip ties with you when you buy a set of the lights.
Dwnorton1, I have a M1082 in my...
Very bold statement indeed. But sometimes the truth hurts. I own a business, have multiple insurance policies, DOT #, authority, and every other thing required by the goobermint to operate and conduct business legally. And sometimes I simply cannot compete against others who don't play by the...
Red is supply and the blue is to activate the brakes on the towed vehicle.
You can also use a properly plumbed air hose to power any air tool to work on your truck or another beside it, and air up your tires.
I suggest Mt. Lemmon near Tucson. SS member 98G took me there. Pretty cool. Castle Bravo is nearby also.
PM 98G he can probably tell you a few places to visit around Tucson and Phoenix. Bring water and Sunglasses, sun tan lotion and good shoes. Don't ask me why..........
Could be a petcock but unlikely unless someone has recently used the petcock. Most likely cause of the slow drip is the extreme cold temperatures. I have 3 dump trucks, been driving/repairing them for 12 years now. I have a detroit series 60 that does this in one spot by the intercooler...
Csm Davis brings up some good points, especially about weight. I could see the 8.3l being a better candidate for a winch truck, using the lighter motor to offset the weight of the winch.
Another difference between the 2 trucks is sound/noise level. A NHC-250 makes much more noise and is...
I regularly get 7.1 mpg in my M923A0 or A1 with NHC-250. I would really like to own a nice A2. However I feel that there is nothing wrong with the NHC-250 and it's design. Big slow moving heavy parts trumps high speed lightweight parts most of the time. After recovering quite a few trucks...
