Not sure CAT made these. Maybe I should contact Stewart & Stevenson. Hockey puck? Not a bad idea : )

$400. You reuse the portion inside that looks like a typical shock absorber.

I replaced the air suspension on my M1088. It rides SO much better now. Notice how ballooned the old one was. The leading edge of the rubber shocks on mine were dry rotted. Checking your shock is easy and does not require removal. Just take a mirror and look at the rubber at the bottom. The...

They look nice. Would be even better if they were wheel balancers : )

I'm going to try to smoke the system this week.

Yes, the air filter looks good.

Love it! More pictures please! :goodjob:

Looks very nice! My mother had colon cancer and beat it. Nothing but blue skies after she had the resection : ) People mean well, but yes you sometimes have to do what you want to do! What size square tubing did you use?

Can you take some pictures of this Mod and give us more information on the brand etc?

So here is how my turbo sounds. To me it sound different and more whiny. Shaft play and end play were quite minimal when I checked this morning. I saw no blade to housing rubbing. :roll: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TTSxfJFZoAw

Trying to find a reliable Chinese turbo part can be a gamble. Can you share the name of the manufacturer? Thanks!

The M1088 3116 290 hp turbo is made by Schwitzer and is model number 4R8915. CAT no longer makes a replacement cartridge, but you can get a nice new one for only $2137.88! Might be able to find and aftermarket cartridge. I'm interested in this Majectic too. More details please! : : )

:roll: Ok so my cab went up, and now it won't go all the way down. Bad check valve or stuck valve?

Thanks for responding : ) The reason I think it is bad is when the boost comes on there is a sound like a vacuum cleaner picked up a nail and is grinding it. Engine sounds fine at idle. I could be wrong, but it sounds kind of like the youtube videos I have seen where a turbo went bad and hit the...

Hello! I have a CAT 3116 290hp engine that needs a turbo cartridge. The vehicle is a Stewart and Stevenson M1088 military tractor truck. The housing has this stamped on it: 699764 HSM 187 070L-0 F1083 The CAT engine serial number is 3RJ03580 Arrangement #118-9578 I am struggling...

Tonight I saw picts of a M1088 anti-torsion suspension in operation. Problem was, when the guy stressed the suspension, it really did not bend much at the base frame. Thus I questioned the need for it. I guess I could put a box on and just see how it does. Open to comments : )

Just curious, if you have any more picts of the lack of flex? I'm debating the suspension add-on thing.

[thumbzup][thumbzup] What is the top MPH (tire speed) for these 53's? Brand?

Are those balancing weights on the wheels? what kind of winch did you get? : ) Thanks!
