OK that makes sense. I looked closer and can see the metal tabs that the metal slotted pieces on the cover will mate up with. Looks like my issue is clearance for one of the cables to miss one of the raised parts of the cover. I think I can flip the rear battery cable over, so the cable runs...
Is there anything that is supposed to hold down the rear/inside of the battery box cover? There are the two latches in the front, but nothing holding the back down. Just wondering if something is missing on mine. Mine came with 6TAGM batteries which look practically brand new, and maybe those...
He may mean he purchased two additional axles just to regear those third members, so he could keep the originals if he wanted to switch back? The data plate which lists the third member / center section ratio is on the center section of the axle, on the driver's side of the housing, turned...
Mine has a tach (part of the winch package). At 50MPH (clocked on my GPS) the engine is turning about 2250-2300 RPM. In TM 9-2320-365-10, table 1-6 (System Data) it lists the governor as Auto/Mechanical. When the PTO is engaged it locks the transmission in Neutral, and the Mode button...
Unless you have an A1 variant, the engine is manual injection, no computer for it. At highway cruise the transmission is already in 7th gear. You will want to investigate the axle gearing options. If your truck is the A0 manual injection model then it should also have Rockwell axles. I would...
I think they are ramping up the number of these being sold. I picked mine up last week, which including the ones selling this week, make at least 35 trucks sold so far (by my browsing and estimation) since January. I posted in the other thread about highway speed, but I can tell you my A0...
I just drove mine back from Atlanta yesterday. Mine maxed out at 50mph while towing an M1101 behind it. I don't think the trailer slowed it down any either. That was 2250rpm, and speed reading was from my GPS. The speedometer on the dash was reading about 2-2.5mph slower than actual speed...
I keep seeing mention of the A1 variants having a better transmission. All I can find is that the A1 has the Allison MD3070pt. I thought the A0 original trucks had a 3070 transmission as well? It does look like maybe the original trucks had the WTEC II controller and the A1 variants had the...
