Yeah, I hear you on the STE/ICE. By the time I get the lid to the thing open we have already solved the problem. I guess the fittings in the tray are probably the most useful thing but I haven't used them either. :unsure: It would be a good step-stool, or paint it red with a big alarm clock...

Okay, Thanks for all the help. To make a long story short everything is good now. The ABS light actually disappeared on the dash. Cables are marked and I know my 2 and 4 battery configurations on this truck. I made long test leads years ago when I did a M929A1 cab makeover which I will post the...

I'm going out now to do as you have explained. I have four cables but one was taped off and not in use when I purchased the truck. I will report back with results. Thank you! -jw

I will do that and post the result. I believe I have a good diagram.

Guy's I'm newbie owner of a (MTV) 1083A1. That is what the data plate has on it. I am in the process of learning all about this truck. I acquired it from a VFD. They went from a 4 battery configuration to a 2 battery config. They disconnected the NATO slave receptacle and it looks like the 12V...

Ospho/Phospho prep is still the best solution for preping metal and killing rust. Loctite Extend is too! I have been using both for years. If they were so crappy they wouldn't be so popular. They are designed to chemically react to rust. They react nicely to fresh rust residue. The product...

Sorry for the delayed response. Everything good now. The Google account login dialogs are gone. No more template add-on stuff. Oh, well... All is good.

So, do I need to pay a membership fee? I paid a classified fee years ago but I think that was for one year. I have current and completed projects to post. I'm using Fire Fox, and when I click on a TM it keeps asking me to add the extention which I already have and it's just a dialog loop. I...

I haven't been on SS in years because I have been busy building and restoring 5-ton trucks. I really do not have time to wade through all of these Google account login ads. I just want to look at some TMs and I have to download a template reader and wade through a bunch of ext. download which...

Ok, I found my answer. It can be used in a sensor application to detect difference in current flow. Can be used ON/Off switching application.

Hey guys, I bought this terminal block a few years ago and I forgot what my application was going to be with it... I think it had something to do with taking 28V to 12v-5v via (Hall Effect) fuses on two blocks (input-output) voltages. Is it step down transformation or something else? Forgive me...

Yeah, I concur on that. If the existing paint is solid then feather it out and paint over it. My situation with this 1970 Kaiser Jeep XM818 was a extreme case of layers of paint. All of the panel gasket rubber is rotten. The paint has caused binding on hood, doors, and anything that adjusts or...

I saw this discussion pop-up again in my inbox this week. Anyway, this reminds me of everyone's opinion of how to get rid of prickly pear cactus out here in west Texas. You hear a bunch of wise tales and untruths about how you get the job done. It's easy, rake and pile it. It's like raking...

I think what you are describing the same condition I had. Sounds like you main (battery) solenoid is bad. Your getting power across the coil, but the contacts are done. See, I let my batteries get too weak and the slow cranking put to much load on the battery solenoid. The clicking is the...

I hear you... I had my phone in the truck, but found little time to pull it out and take pictures. The video and pictures are starting to show up on the net. We are looking for stuff to post.

It was... It will test your skills and comfort level with being dirty and trying to stay dry. I don't like going to bed dirty, hungry, and uncomfortable, but sometimes in life this is how things can be. This will test your ability to deal with a uncomfortable situation if you are camping and...

You got that right! Just a bunch of redneck'en immaturity! :-D

It's all about having off-road fun with any vehicle. Whatever you can muster up!

Ha! Good to be home. Will I do it again? Probably, but I will have a RV next time. From what I hear rain is always part of the event. That's good though... As far as the truck pull I decided it wasn't worth the risk. It wasn't fair contest anyway.
